External clock sync

[TYLCV13]

I use RME UC for playback only. The setup is this Streamer >RME (sync clock source from streamer (SPDIF)> Hang loose convolver VST3 >RME playback. My question is: Can Elements take the sample rate that is synced to the RME from the streamer and set it as the sample rate for the VST plugin that is hosted. In this use case the sample rate can change from track to track and I want it to change in the HLC VST3 automatically not having to manually change it. Hope that makes sense. See my current situation with the HLC hosted in some JUCE costume setup.

The sample rate you set in Element is the same sample rate that all plugins in the session will be using. Do you mean somehow, get the sample rate from a secondary computer? I don't know how that is possible, unless the two audio interfaces can do it. In which case, Element should "just work". I really am not sure without trying it.

OK. Thanks for the response. The idea is: think of an external DAC that can receive a stream at different sample rates and automatically adapt to the incoming sample rate. The RME settings can be set to receive external clock sync. The question is, can Elements take that external clock sample rate as the sample rate it uses and have all VST plugins that it hosts adapt that sample rate. Obviously the user can manually change Elements sample rate every time the external sample rate changes, what I am asking is if this can be automated. Hope that made more sense.

It makes sense, and maybe can be done. Are there other daws or hosts that can do this?

I don't know. Not much of a sound engineer. Google and AI didn't give me a clear answer.
