Using the Satellite with Windows

Setting Sample Rate in Windows

Sample Rate Conﬂicts

If you start recording/playback and the microphone’s status indi-

cator starts ﬂashing red continuously, this is due to the comput-

er’s operating system requesting different sample rates for input

and output at the same time. The microphone will still appear to

function, but either the input or output will be garbled, so the LED

is warning you of this problem.

This problem can happen in Windows 7 or Windows 8, and will

happen by default in Windows 10, when playing and recording

simultaneously. It happens with DirectSound, WASAPI Shared

mode, WaveOut, MME, and other software that uses the Windows

Default Format settings.

This will not happen in macOS or iOS, or with Windows software

that uses ASIO4ALL, WASAPI Exclusive mode, WDM, or other

software that sets the sample rates on its own.

To change the default sample rates in Windows 10

In the Windows Search bar, type “sound”, and then select Sound settings

2. Make sure the Samson device is selected in the drop-down

menu and click Device Properties
