Topic: MicroTrack 24/96 Beta 1.2.3

Hi..just bought an MT having gleaned much useful info from these pages for which many thanks. A couple of queries; I'm using Sennheiser MX400 earbuds and I'm getting enormous level out of them listening to MP3s from my collection..is the complaint about hphone vol just the input monitor side of things? how do you stop playback once started in firmware 1.2.3?The manual mentions half-speed playback by depressing the thumbwheel for 2 secs..has anybody made this happen?
Cheers for now

I can't make it happen, and I just tried the Nav wheel in different ways.  Also, I've only been able to pause, not stop playback.  Yes, the headphone output is very strong, both playing back (not an MT strong point by any stretch) and monitoring.

I think they gave up on us

I've found that the best way to get answers is by using the Incident Reporting thing on the Tech Support page.  Submit an incident report about, say, the lack of a 2gb autosplit.  They normally respond with some generic "Thanks for the feedback, we're always looking for ways to improve our product."  You need to then respond to THAT with more questions at which point you usually get a more detailed response. 

Obviously not an ideal way to get answers, and the Incident Reporting form and layout is a bit clunky, but I've been able to confirm that another firmware upgrade is forthcoming.  I wrote on Friday to find out when and will post here when I hear something.

Yeah, that feature (1/2 speed playback) was never implemented. Not sure if it ever will be. I don't have much use for it myself so no biggie for me.

I'm guessing he meant firmware version 1.1.5.

I also got a similar response. They will hear about a new update when we hear about it.
So I think I don't have to ask for support anymore, instead ask for the developers themselves or their pioject leader?
As if that would help.

Yes.. strange you can only pause (not stop) playback. Wonder why they never thought of putting in a stop option in this thing.

i could care less if it has a stop option...how about just making it a viable recording unit...like they said they were going to before it came out.

i had faith in this thing for quite awhile, but i'm slowly giving up on it and m-audio.
