Title: R4 file Questions
Post by: bdasilva on October 12, 2008, 11:20:27 PM

Battery on my R-4 died mid set while I was recording... I can see the 4 files but with 0 length.  am I screwed?

I think the answer is yes....  When the r4 looses power, it does not save the file.

Can you copy the files to your HD?  Have you tried the wave header repair tool?

Good luck!

That sucks Brian.  I've also heard there's nothing you can do.  Sorry to hear about it.
