Hey, guys -- Thanks for all the great info in this forum.
I've been enjoying my MicroTrack II for a couple of months now. But I recently encountered a weird problem that I haven't seen documented anywhere else.
While listening back to a large file (approx. 1.25 GB) on the unit, I accidentally hit the Record button. The MTII started recording a new file. I didn't have a mic plugged in, so apparently it was just recording silence. After about a second, I hit Record again to stop recording. I stowed the recorder, not knowing that something terrible had just happened.
Later at home I transferred files from the MTII into my computer. Disappointingly, the file I'd been listening to had been erased!!
Well, sort of. The file name was still there, but it had a size of Zero KB.
I didn't hit the Delete button to erase this file, because I would have had to confirm the delete and I know that didn't happen. I also know that the file wasn't empty before, because I listened to a lot of it before it got Zeroed out. I also know this wasn't caused by static electricity on my CF card, because I use a large format card (16GB) that I never change out.
I also tried replicating the error on a different file, but the MTII just recorded a new file without changing the one I was listening to. So I'm stumped as to what's going on.
Has anybody else had this problem? Any ideas?
Thanks, R2R
