Title: 722 dropout at file split?
Post by: terrapinj on September 13, 2007, 10:20:19 PM

anyone ever had the 722 dropout at all on the file split? i've got mine set for 2GB splits and thought i was hearing a little gap around the time of the file split. iwent back today and looked at the waveform closely and you can clearly see a bit of silence around the split on both files with no input at all it seems on the right channel very briefly

on the mp3 its right around the 7 to 8 second mark, right before "Oohh Very"

I've never experienced that.  What sample/bit rate are you using?  722 firmware?

were you running a external micpre? maybe there was a power glitch there.

24bit 48 khz

i'll have to double check the firmware but i believe its 2.10

using phantom on the 722

ccm4v > 722

ok so I feel rather dumb

i finally figured out that the problem was not with the 722 but rather with Samplitude (i'd recently switched to using Samplitude around the time of the issue)

for whatever reason samplitude was set to slightly fade in/out when joining two tracks together so thats where the gap was introduced - im trying to figure out how to permanently change the setting but at least I know to look for it now for joined files

damn ::)

In Samplitude, I have one multitrack project that I drag files into and then slide the resulting objects together to join the split files.  It has always been seamless.  I've never changed any defaults.

Is this what you are doing or are you doing it some other way?

Sounds like an auto function is on.  You are getting auto fades.

thats exactly what i do but i do believe auto crossfade may be on come to think of it
