i'm sure that's fine for people that are insane, but this sentence especially got me:
Quote
The highest exponent, 255, is reserved for special cases: with zero mantissa it designates positive/negative infinity, and with non-zero mantissa it is a 'no-number' (Not a Number or NaN).

do you think he made up the word mantissa??

when i get home i'll check my notes from last semester's pro tools class.  i know  we talked about this for a hot minute.  if all else fails, i'll just email my teacher tonight and he'll put in nice layman's terms for all of us :)

also mantissa = Mathematical Algorithms for Numerical Tasks In Space System Applications.

so, no, he didn't make it up.  but he's still a math dork :P

I'm extremely unfamiliar with Wavelab, so I'm not even going to risk looking like a fool stabbing at this.  I will start playing with the copy i just got and try to get a grasp on this though  ;)
And the Sultans... yeah the Sultans play creole

do you think he made up the word mantissa??

In math, it's the fractional part of a logarithm. However, I looked it up because that doesn't really apply to this conversation and found this:

Quote
The part of a floating point number which,
when multiplied by its radix raised to the power of its
exponent, gives its value. The mantissa may include the
number's sign or this may be considered to be a separate part.
Out of the game … for now?

second half of this post should help: http://taperssection.com/index.php?topic=49027.msg634715#msg634715 unless you are looking for to get to a different end result or do not wish to work below 32bit float temp files...

-with temp file set at 24bit, I was able to perform the same processes.  wavelab again did not choke on the 2 gig limit.

-.  I was able to process the file..but cant save it. at least at 24 bit temp. setting. Trying to save now with 16 Bit temp files..So, I cant wrap my brain around this...what is the relation of the "temp" files to the final product...How does the temp file setting affect the file??I guess what Im trying to ask is what purpose do the temp files serve?

ray-

you can't save the 24/96 full set files as a full set.  what you should do is just line up the files in wavelab using the insert audio file function, but don't save it.  then insert track markers while the wavs are open in the active window and run the auto split.  that way you'll get the 24/96 tracks saved individually.  you are essentially working on the 24/96 files without saving them as one long set.  after you save the 24/96 individual tracks, you can process down to 44.1 and then dither to 16bit and save directly as a new file.  this will save the entire thing as one long 16/44 track.  unfortunately, you cannot save the 24/96 material as one long set if it is over an hour.  does this help?

Yes It does, Damon, I appreciate it.  I was misreading earlier comments..I took it that if the temp file settings were lower that you could indeed save the entire thing..but that only applied to processing I guess. Thanks man. Again. +T

no problem...it's a good workaround, but it's not perfect.
