176400 sample rate missing

I am testing out Cantabile Lite 4 b4203 with FlexASIO, strangely I didn’t see 176400 sample rate available for selecting.

I also saw an odd 192400 sample rate.

I reported the issue to FlexASIO, they said the issue is on Cantabile side.

There would be a few things to unpick here. I guess I’m curious why you would even be concerned about a very high sample rate - ok, some top-end gear can do it, but I bet most of us are 44.1k, and a few at 96k?

Welcome to the forum.

Your question is a bit odd (I don’t know anyone who uses 176400).
However, try asking Brad, the developer.

I would also ask for live use, is there any benefit in using anything other than 44.1K and putting more strain on the system?

I believe that Cantabile is also being used by non-live users (streamers, AV enthusiasts, audiophiles and others) in order to insert some processing in a signal chain. The audiophile community has other priorities than most of us here :wink:

TBH, I haven’t come across 176.4 kHz yet - not that I’ve even attempted 96 kHz. Never saw the need for it with my projects… But it looks like this is the 4 x 44.1 equivalent to 192 kHz (4 x 48 kHz).

What is funky is that in the OP’s screenshot, Cantabile seems to report sample rates of 192 kHz AND 192.4 kHz. I suspect a simple typo in the pull-down menu - reporting 192.4 instead of 176.4? Because 192.4 makes no sense from a multiplier perspective…

Guess @brad can clarify and possibly fix in a future build - it should be a simple issue of Cantabile querying the ASIO driver for compliance with 176,4 and populating the menu accordingly

Cheers,

I’ve been thinking the same thing lately.

Yes, correct.

I think so too…

Yes, I see it now :slight_smile:

Thanks for reporting this. I’ve had a look and indeed Cantabile had 176400 missing - I’ve added it for the next build.

TBH: I don’t even remember where the list of sample rates originally came from so I’m not sure why it has 192000 and 192400 - you’re right though possibly a typo.
