Set the project sample rate

The project’s sample rate determines the number of samples Logic Pro uses for audio playback.
When you record or add audio files to your project, their sample rate is matched to the project
sample rate if the “Convert audio file sample rate when importing” project setting is active. You
can turn on this setting in the File > Projects Settings > Assets pane.

Some audio files in your project may not match the newly selected sample rate. The playback of
files that don’t match the project’s sample rate is slower (the file’s sample rate is higher) or faster
(the file’s sample rate is lower) than it should be. You can match the sample rate of individual
audio files to the project sample rate in the Project Audio Browser.

Set the project sample rate
Do one of the following:

m

Choose File > Project Settings > Audio (or use the Open Audio Project Settings key command),
then choose a sample rate from the Sample Rate pop-up menu.

m

Click the Sample Rate display in the LCD, then choose a sample rate from the pop-up menu.

Note: If the LCD does not show the Sample Rate display, Control-click the LCD and choose
Customize Control Bar from the shortcut menu. Select the Sample Rate checkbox in the
Customize Control Bar dialog.
