I've been using the ZOOM PS04 to record my guitar playing, primarily
as a learning tool
(see
http://ranchjp.home.mchsi.com/Jerrys...4.html#Topic10)

One aspect of this tool is that we can retrieve the tracks recorded on
the PS04 (in their format) to a WAV, send them off to someone else
with the PS04, and then theoretically import tracks into a PS04 and
add tracks.

The problem is, when I acquire a wav file from a friend, and upload
into my PS04 to add a track, it is about half speed.

So what parameters do I need to change to my wav to adjust this speed
issue?

Or do you think this is an issue with the PS04 itself


Thanks
Jerry

It is not saved as a "windows wave" file.
It is saved as a 16 bit linear PCM wave file with a sample rate of 31.25
kHz.

Open the file as a PCM and set those values and you should be ok.

When you receive a file from a friend import it to your DAW and convert to
those values before putting it on your chip.

I assume 32 is close enough
anyway it worked
thanks a bunch Rich

BTW can you direct me to a good FAQ to explain what sampling freq etc
is in digital audio files. I need to learn this stuff
Thanks
Jerry
