"Discussion: This method requests a change to the input and output audio sample rate."
I have 2 questions:
- In combination with [AVAudioSession sampleRate], the "sample rate" is referring to the hardware input and output sample rates? Why would they necessarilly be coupled?
- If I'm using a Remote IO Audio Unit to only write audio samples, do I care at all about this? Ex: as long as I'm able to set the stream format of my Audio Unit instance's output bus to whatever I want (say, 44.1kHz), do I care that about what [AVAudioSession sampleRate] is? (Performance aside)
