Topic: Recording Cuts Out Mid-Show

[Hahninator]

At Bonnaroo on Thursday night, I taped a band called Passion Pit. Showed up, clipped to RyanJ's stand...hit record and bam there it goes. I check it afterwards, the levels are still going fine and I hit stop right at the end of the show. Thought I had a perfect tape. Wrong...?

I went to edit it now and I see that 15 minutes in, something goes wrong. I have no idea but the rest of the recording is filled with 100% static. I am fairly certain that nothing came unplugged as noone had touched the gear the entire show. Once we hit record, we left it without touching it until after the show. There was space on the R-09 on the SD card...there was a full battery. I can't figure out for the life of me what went wrong.

Any help would greatly be appreciated. I'm sure there's nothing I can do to save the recording of course, but I'd like to figure out what went wrong.

Attached is a picture of it in Audacity and here is an mp3 of it. The cutout happens at 3:27.

Same thing happened with Girl Talk. FUCK. What in the world happened to my tapes

I'm thinking it may be a bad SD card?

I'm also thinking the card is bad.  Is Girl Talk on the same card as the first band?  If it's not a bad card, maybe it's a slow card...have you used this particular card successfully with the R-09 before?  Regardless, sorry for the troubles and wish I'd have met you and about 20 other bonnaroo tapers that were there.  I didn't head to DFC too much during Bonnaroo this year, so I think that's probably why I didn't meet too many tapers this year around.
