Hey Rick,
"Callery, who actually HAS one of these, informed us (earlier in the thread <SLAP> uh sorry) that Fostex released a firmware update that up'd max filesize to 4GB (which I mentioned in my post)."
Geez, I didn't think that missing something on another page of a forum thread necessarily should precipitate the audio-pimp beat-down reference. I'm actually only curious about the deck, and not in a little forum lurker ass-sniffing, okay? I'm not trying to piss on your fire hydrant by posting here, so please, be kind and indulge my complete ignorance and lack of observational prowess with a tiny bit of restraint. I'm new here and don't have any friends, yet.
Thanks,
Stuart
Not at all dude. It was on the same post (in this thread). I'll be your friend, and everyone appreciates enthusiasm (hell, +T for enthusiasm). Just READ. You replied 2 posts back, that you missed my post about the manual (which kinda inferred to me that you READ IT), and then INSIST that:
Didn't even see it till' you pointed it out. My bad. Anyways, my point was that the max file size is 2 gigs, not four, as your post infers.
Which tells me, even if you >READ IT<, you didn't READ IT.
My posts, while sometimes rambling (especially the technical ones), are usually carefully checked for accuracy before I press POST. It's just funny that you responded to a heads up about this info already being on this thread, and then try and CYA by correcting me (which you would not have found necessary, had you READ the post). Hence the SLAP.
We on the same page now? Good.
I'm very interested in this deck, and glad that Callery has volunteered to be out guinea-pig on this piece (instead of me for a change). I have a whole garage full of shit I bought, that just didn't quite work out (but it's FUN to watch the wooks paw thru it when I put a dumpster-load out for bulk pickup, on the rare occasions when I get tired of tripping over it).
Still pissed? Join the club - plenty of people here pissed at me
. I've found it pays to be a little thick-skinned here. If I thrived on thier approval (like some others do), it might actually hurt my feelings. Don't read my posts. But you just might miss out on that important piece of info you've been looking for, if you do (like 4GB maxfilesize in the last Fostex firmware update).
'Nuff Said...
Rick
I see Bob is your friend now too. See, you have TWO friends here now... Bob, I said "uh sorry", after I slapped him. I guess I'll have to start using kewl emoticons more often...
