Moved to a new venue with a Midas M32R.
Recorded the show to USB stick.


WAV's have finite size limits, I am used to dealing with more than 1
sequential 4Gb WAV's recorded on my laptop, and stitching them together in
post with no lost data.

The Midas M32R I used this weekend produced multiple 2Gb WAV's to USB stick,
but lost data in the transitions.
Maybe half a second or so each transistion, dunno yet.


Clearly this is not fit for purpose, you can't get that data back.



Anyone have any experience of this?

Gareth-

You can get around the 2GB limit by using ExFAT format on your USB
stick. But that does not change the 2GB format used by your recording
process.

My Zoom H4n audio recorder automatically starts a new track when the
limit is reached. I have not had any problem splicing these tracks
together using Audacity.

Someone suggested that your problem is related to your laptop's handling
of the transition. If you can get your laptop to NOT chop the recording
into segments, then using ExFAT format may eliminate the problem.
