ssia. Got them off the 722 and now trying to open in SF8 for a resample. set one is 2.5 gigs and set two is 3.5 gigs. Do I need to do something to them before trying to open. Where is my JB3 when I need it ::)

I recall reading something about this recently. I think there was some program that would chop up WAV files greater than 2GB.
Pretty sure it was called AudioHack. I will have a look around and see if I can find that thread.
EDIT: Totally unrelated topic, but here is the info on AudioHack:

Oh, so SF8 won't open files over 2 gigs? I thought that was just wavelab? What about CE2K? I was under the impression that would open files over 2 gigs?
-
Yup. at least with SF6 & 7
Audition and CEP will open up to 4gb files
With Wavelab5 you have to do a file import or sumpin'
Have you found anything fun in SF8 that would make me want to upgrade ?

The Dither algorithm is allegedly better in SF8, and I dont think sf7 supported 24/192??

personally I cant see nor hear it. SF takes about twice as long and sounds (IMO) worse than wavelab. YMMV
And Honestly I dont see many folks that can handle 192 even thinking of using SF as it is Not what I would consider a pro application By anymeans. I would guess that Most folks that are running 24/192 would rather use Protools HD.

Same to you Nick!Hope yours was a good one, my friend. I meant to say that the SF8 dither is supposedly better than the SF6 dither.
I use wavelab about 75% of the time, though I like sf8 for some things. I do know of one professional Mastering Engineer that uses SF and swears by it. Most of the other guys I know use Sequoia , Samplitude or Pyramix.

Tony,
you can open the files in CDwave and split them.
-
dont you have to 'save as alternate 24-bit format' or something like that once chopped in cd wave ?

yes..thats been my experience anyway.

Samplitude! Nothing beats it! It's what I record with and split files on. I've opened up a 3 hour set at 24/96 and it opened the whole shebang. We're talking 6 gigs here. I use Soundforge for normalization and fades only. and of course cdwav for tracking
-
oh ya and wavlab for the dithering and downsampling...
-
Cept for its big brother, sequoia of course. :o www.sequoiadigital.com..doesnt samp. have dithering/downsampling mastering features??

You are right on Sequoia but I'm not shelling out another 500. :0)
doesnt samp. have dithering/downsampling mastering features??
Yes but you gotta love the Apogee UV22 algorythym on wavlab. :0) Technically I think Soundforge has the best downsampling because of the anti-alias filter but I just use the wavlab to do both.
-
I hear you there. I cant afford it yet either. When I get some more experience under my belt and figure out samplitude, I will probably get it. I switch back and forth between POW-R 3 dither and UV22HR..I like them both a lot. A mastering engineer I know swears by the Dither in SF8, and hes been mastering since 75, so that intrigues me...I might try that one out. I do love wavelab too. Cant wait for 6. :) Which Samp. do you have??I have 7. I got it from a fella for 200 bucks, because he bought nuendo.
