R-09 Firmware 1.10 to be released 11.17.06

[gmm6797]

what i'm interested in is if the  2hr plus file will now play back on the r-09 so i can listen to it on the drive home from the show.

Learned that didnt work last night on my way hom from Guns N Roses... show ended at 2am... fun fun fun

very happy to report in with these findings....
at 2:04:12, the r09 rolled over into a new file.
the transition was seamless.

What were your recording settings on this auto-file split?

Could this small R-09 now OFFICIALLY compete with the 722 (on a price vs value arguement for stealthing)?

Does this mean there is now a file split when you record over 2hrs?
In past the R-09 would NOT split the sound file at 2hrs, but would just create a large single file up to 4hours in size...

Will the R-09 work OK with the non-SDHC 4GB transcend cards?

And what happened to releases 1.03 to 1.09! lol

yes. 

the only settings i changed after the firmware update (which takes you back to the factory defaults) was to set it to 24/48.

Anyone checked if the R-09 gives an error message saying incorrect SD card speed when you record over 20 tracks? I used to get an error message on mine with the previous firmware using the 4GB transcend card after recording MANY tracks.

Ah, thanks for the clarification

Hmm, I guess this is ok since it is a seamless file split. However, it could be a pain having to join files on the computer later?

Nice thanks for the link, done and done.

I have borrowed a 722 before that does the seamless splits, and this is how it worked well for me.

* open each file in SF (or CE)
* go to track 2 and select all and then copy
* go to track 1 and go to the very end and then paste in the 2nd track
* go to track 3 and select all and then copy
* go to track 1 and go to the very end and then paste in the 3rd track

NOTE: SF wont let you save a file over 2gb, so you will have to do all editing, normalizing, etc before you then split the file into the chunks you want.  IE: I normally split the big file into 2 CD size chunks, then cut that 1/2 of the file out of the original track 1, and paste it into a new track and save... then do the same for the 2nd 1/2 of the show.

Hope that makes sense

Apart from the question if my 'old' 4GB transcend SD card will work with the 1.10 software, it would be interesting to see what SDHC cards work well with the R-09.
Any ideas about the Transcend TS8GSDHC?

Completely off topic, but gmm6797, what is WFT? Do you mean WTF?

[gewwang]

i might be rolling the 722 @ 24/96 tonight. so the splits @ 2gb are definitely seamless?

I havent had any issues with the 722 not being seamless since a firmware release over a year ago.  I run 2 Gb splits all the time

Yea, corrected, I am an idiot!  Thanks for pointing that out!

A little late, but yes, the 722 is 100% seamless and perfect when you put them back together. 

If it were not for this feature, i would think no one would be buying the 722 for its sticker price
