I'm using the Studio One 4 Pro demo, considering purchasing the product. However, I've been having numerous issues with the software failing to recognize Windows Audio on Windows 10 PC. After a lot of tinkering, I'm finally able to hear audio from my speakers or headphones, yet every time I launch the software (or minimize and then maximize the screen) I'm spammed an error message: "Failed to open Microphone in (Realtek Audio)! Please make sure that the sample rates of your recording and playback devices match."

They do in fact match. 2 channel, 16 bit, 48000hz on both Microphone In and my headphones. (Incidentally, Windows does not let me change the settings on Microphone In anyway.) I have also tried it with "Microphone Array" selected instead of "Microphone In," and it's the same situation if not worse. Settings in Studio One are also set to 48khz. If I happen to be in the settings when the error message appears, the settings briefly show "No Audio Device" of their own accord and then revert to showing "Windows Audio" when I dismiss the error message.

Playback is fine as of right now but the error message is annoying and I'm not sure what's causing it. I love the many features of this software and would happily purchase, but I'm hesitant to do so if the audio interface continues to be an issue.

Thanks for any assistance!
