Hi guys:

I'm having difficulty opening my sessions and even creating new
session at 44.1KHz. Every time I try to open an alreaddy created
session, all I hear is "the playback engine does not support 44.1KHz.
And when I try to create a new session and change it from 48KHz to
44.1KHz, it says "48KHz extention clock dimmed pop up button" when I
get to the sample rate. What is going on guys? Has anyone experienced
this. Have updated something that is getting in the way of my opening
ProTools? Please help. Thanks!

Best,

Dammie

I figured it out guys. I opened a session that the sample rate is
48KHz, and when it opene couldn't hear any audio. Then I went into
set-up where I found the playback engine was set to Zoom. Ever since I
have Zoom on my computer, the playback often changes to Zoom But the
problem of the session not opening has not happened to me before. Now,
it fixed and I can do what I need to do in ProTools. Thanks all.

Best,

Dammie

That is definitely odd. My playback engine hasn't changed to zoom at all in the past year and a half despite having it on my computer. Existing sessions stay thee same and new usually go to last used. Glad you got it working though.
Haveyou used zoom with screen sharing at all in the last little while? Maybe you set a sessions playback engine to zoom audio device then had that popup button in the dashboard thing set to last used so it always defaulted to zoom. Weird though if existing sessions changed.

It's Interesting no one else is experiencing this but me. It's been
acting like that with me for almost a year now. Rory, from what you
described about the pop-up dialogue, I might have to delete Zoom from
my system and then reinstall it back later. Perhaps that'll stop the
playback engine from changing, even though I can't remember setting to
last used.

Thanks Rory for your time and suggestion. God bless.

Best,

Dammie
