Sample Rate

The project sample rate determines the number of samples per second Soundtrack Pro
uses for audio playback and export. When you add audio files to your project, their
sample rate is matched (upsampled or downsampled) on the fly to the project sample
rate with no change to their pitch or file duration. The available sample rates are 32
kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 96 kHz, 176.4 kHz, and 192 kHz. The default is 48 kHz,
which is the standard for digital video and DVD projects.

Note: When creating a soundtrack for a video, be sure you save and export your
project at the same sample rate the final video project will use.

To set the sample rate:

m

Choose the sample rate from the Sample Rate pop-up menu. The choices are:

В 32.0
В 44.1
В 48.0
В 88.2
В 96.0
В 176.4
В 192.0

Note: If you open your project on a computer that cannot support the project sample
rate, the project is resampled to the nearest rate the hardware supports for playback.
When you export your project, it is exported at the project sample rate, regardless of
hardware limitations. For more information on hardware sample rates, see Chapter 1,
