Re: Playback engine sample rate

Make a new empty session at 48k. Use Import Session Data to import tracks from the 44.1 session, and it'll sample rate convert it to 48.

Re: Upgrade Opinions

That CPU is too old for Windows 11. You can still run W10, but sometime in 2025 there will be no more W10 security updates. At which point, I would upgrade the computer & OS. Or else ... just run W10...
