Harry, that file size is the inherent size of the limitation of the *.wav format. It is not as though someone chose that size and we're limited to 3 hours and 22 minutes at 44,100Hz 16Bit stereo, it is a condition of the format, that is all.

Hi Mary, Thanks for the help, I sure appreciate it!For anyone from APH, is there a reason why studio recorder can't work with bigger files than 2 gig? What you're going to have is, people having to split recordings up into who knows how many files, if the file you're recording is bigger than 2 gig, my goodness!Whose idea was this to limit a recording to such a file size?

This will keep you mindful that Studio Recorder has a size limit on files it can work with. Keep the .wav file size under 2 gig. This translates to the length of each file of about two hours. It can't work with anything bigger than two gig. Also remember that Studio Recorder works with .wav files directly. You can store output in MP3 format, but to work directly with a file as you edit, it must be a .wav file. Mary Mary
