Pro Tools First could not set sample rate to specified value

Hi Everyone,

Really appreciate if some one would help me to fix the the below issue. I cannot create a new session because my Pro Tool First could not set sample rate to specified value.

I have a Rode usb condenser, using Voice Meeter (virtual audio mixer), Windows 10.

I have set all the sample rates to 48 khz but could not fix the issue.

Below are the screen shots of all setups . Thanks for your help.

Welcome to the DUC and kudos for providing details:D Go to Sound>Properties and change the default playback device to Speakers(Realtek High Definition Audio). Right now, windows is trying to use your device and is in control of the sample rate. By setting Windows to use any OTHER device, you should then be able to choose your sample rate within Pro Tools:o

I tried your method but didn't work. The problem is still occurring

Have you tried setting to 24 bit instead of 16 bit?

Re: Pro Tools First could not set sample rate to specified value

yes, everything is set to 24bit
very sad it's still not working :confused:

Re: Pro Tools First could not set sample rate to specified value

USB Microphones are frequently a mess with Pro Tools.

Pro Tools, including First, is always more reliable/easier to use if you have a dedicated ASIO (on Windows) compatible audio interface that contains both inputs and outputs. Unfortunately the Rode USB is a class compliant USB device with no ASIO driver. That would keep me well away from it for use with Pro Tools.

It's unclear if other people have Voice Meeter working with Pro Tools to aggregate IO and provide and ASIO wrapper for this non-ASIO USB Mic. You maybe should be just asking that.

But to start with try to solve problems my making things simpler. Get this working without Voice Meeter, try using ASIO4ALL and working only with the Mic inout and output (listen though its headphone jack).

Make sure sound meter is not running, uninstall it if needed. Install ASIO4ALL. This may not work, and fail exactly as you are seeing, if you have other applications or Windows itself using the Mic sound device. So make sure Windows sound device is set to your computer's sound card.

Check back when you have that working.
