URGENT: SCS issue with playback speed / sample rate
Posted: Sat Apr 25, 2015 10:33 am
I need urgent help -- I hope somebody can reply soon.
I have a show in a couple of hours, and SCS suddenly developed an issue -- all audio is playing just a tiny bit slower than normal. I have hundreds of very precisely timed lighting cues (Telnet commands from SCS), and now that audio is playing back slower, all the lighting cues are triggering too early. As each 5 minute track plays, the lighting cues are getting more and more out of sync with audio. The only way I can describe this issue is that audio is playing at a slightly slower speed than normal.
We ran this show yesterday, with no issues. Nothing changed in the setup.
Running v11.3.8
I am using Echo Layla 24/96 audio hardware. Outputting 4 audio channels.
In the Audio Output Devices, the "Audio Driver" is set to "ASIO (using BASS)" since that's the only way to get 4 channels out of Echo Layla.
The Echo Layla control panel is reporting "44.1 kHz" sample rate. (This is a read-only field.)
Is there some method to force SCS to output 48 kHz?
I am not even sure if 44.1 kHz vs 48 kHz is the real issue, because the audio is only a tiny bit slower. I think difference between 44.1 and 48 would sound a lot bigger... but I could be wrong...
Does anybody have any ideas?
Thank you!
