I am a new user.
Hardware:
Scarlett 2i2 3rd Gen Audio Interface
Samson C01 Condenser Microphone
Mac Computer
Software:
Audacity
Problem - getting error message “Error opening recording device. Error code: -9997 Invalid sample rate”
My preferences for Audacity seem to be on 48k which is the same for my Scarlett settings.
Any recommendations for a new user to clear this hurdle?
Thanks!

This is the Sierra OS. It didn’t ask for permissions. I’m running High Sierra (later) and it doesn’t.
