Can a Dante audio subscription be established with different audio sample rates on both interfaces?

In a Dante network, establishing an audio subscription requires both interfaces to operate at the same audio sample rate. This is essential because Dante uses a synchronized clocking system to ensure low-latency, high-fidelity audio transmission. Each device on the network must share a common sample rate to maintain synchronization, allowing seamless audio streaming without artifacts or interruptions.

If devices with differing sample rates were allowed to connect, it would lead to challenges, such as timing discrepancies and potential audio artifacts during playback. Thus, maintaining a uniform sample rate across all connected devices is a fundamental aspect of utilizing the Dante protocol effectively. This synchronization is critical for professional audio environments where consistency and quality are paramount.
