My only problems these days with my MT, is the 2 gig limit. If I was recording 16 bit it would be no problem.
At 24 bit I have had to restart a new file a couple of times during an encore break.
On the Jamcruise sets can easily go over two hours. Starting a new file sort of sucks. I would prefer to "set it and forget it", but I do have to keep my eye on the unit when nearing 1:55min. I can start a new file in a few seconds, and I can patch in my backup aftrewards. Or I can run at 16 bit.
I'll have a 744 someday, but for now, the MT works fine.
