Sample rate in Voicemeter and Windows

[SirWill]

hey,

I currently have a issue with crackling sound when I have a game running. I looked around and found out that the sample rate is set to 48000 Hz in the speaker properties from windows but the virtual inputs and hardware out of Voicemeeter is set to 44100 Hz.

Shouldn't Voicemeeter be on the same sample rate? If so how do I change this?

no, it shoud work as well with different samplerate... did you follow recommendation from this thread ?:

Yes I did. To clarify, if I have the sample rate set to 48000 Hz in the windows settings then I keep it to 44100 Hz in Voicemeeter?

[Vincent Burel]

yes, you can try to set the Voicemeeter samplerate in 48kHz. this can improve the things...
but normally it should work anyway, whatever is the samplerate.
