Title: Tascam HS-P82 recording glitch
Post by: aysvideo on October 23, 2012, 02:41:56 PM

Last week I was recording a show with my HS-P82.  As I recall, I was running 5 mics, all on phantom power, recording at 24/96, if that even matters.  About 2 minutes into the show, the recorder stopped, and gave me a warning that said, "buffer overload," or something to that effect.  At that point, I hit record again, and the deck performed flawlessly for the rest of the night.  Has anyone ever experienced this?  My guess is the buffer overload meant that it couldn't write quickly enough to the card, but I had plenty of space left on the card, and it was a 64GB, 600X high speed card, although it was an off-brand card. 

Anyone have any thoughts about what may have caused this?  Thanks, in advance. 

Randy

I have never experienced what you are referring to. It has always performed flawlessly

Yeah, mine has always worked beautifully, except for that one little hiccup I described.  Out of curiosity, what brand and speed CF cards are people using with this recorder?

I have run upto 6 channels (4 with phantom on) and no issues at 24/96
