How come we can't change the sample rate and bit depth when we select WaveRT?
And how come the default bit depth is 32 bits? Why not have it at 16 or 24, I want at 16, is there any way of doing that?

Hi,

Try choosing "Use Exclusive Mode" with WaveRT. Note: this will make it so that other sounds on your computer won't play while Mixcraft is running. On the upside, this will give you lower latency.

Hi, despite trying that, it doesn't make a difference, I still can't change the settings, is this a bug, if it is, I'll just wait for mixcraft 7.1

I am not sure, I don't use WaveRT mode- But I think what you are seeing is settings offered by Windows and it has nothing to do with Mixcraft?

Hi,
no these are mixcraft settings.

Hi,

Mixcraft is getting the available settings from your sound device. What is your sound device? Do you have an external audio interface, or are you using the soundcard that's integrated into your computer? Something else?

What do you have selected as your playback device in Mixcraft's Sound Device settings?

Hi, I'm using my computer as my sound device.
I'm also using core audio as my playback device.

Does your computer have integrated audio on the mobo or a separate sound card?

Hi,

Right-click on the small volume icon in your Windows taskbar and select Playback Devices, then right-click on the playback device that you're using for Mixcraft and select Properties. On the Advanced tab, try switching your Default Format setting.

The only option I have is my computer speakers.

The simplest answer may be that the WaveRT sound engine (included in Windows) may not offer any other bit depth settings for real-time sound. If WaveRT does not give mixcraft multiple options for bit depth, then mixcraft cannot possibly change it to anything other than 32-bit simply because WaveRT won't allow it.
