Hi, I promised to be back when I got my ZOOM R16 to report how to create overdubbed recordings. This task is quite simple, as R16 starts the counter of the first track to record at time 0.000s and creates a corresponding wav file. To start the next track to record (together with the corresponding ne...

Dear Gale, Thanks for your reply! I am very surprised to hear conversion from wav to mp3 adds strange time periods not to be expected by the user. I must confess to some extent in the past I faintly suspected the clock reliability of the recording system as a whole when getting in trouble with tryin...

Hello Bill, Gale Thanks for your reply. My aim is to study a piece of music, especially "my" violin parts. For study purposes I try to practice together with accompaniment of the other voices of the piece of music. So I can repeat as often as I want, what a human partner probably would annoyed had s...

Dear Gale, Thank you for your kind reply. I will try to explain what I do as a usual task: I use scores written in Capella software, containing voices for different instruments and a click track. I myself play the violin and no other instrument. I intend to to play the violin part (or several differ...

Hi, I send a copy of my request in this case to a German ZOOM-dealer. I leve it in original language. Start citation: Sehr geehrter Herr Fleischmann, vielen Dank für Ihre Anfrage und Ihr damit verbundenes Interesse an unseren Produkten und Service-Leistungen. Der Zoom R16 generiert ein komplettes Sp...

Dear Gale, Thanks for your prompt reply! Due to my poor English I possibly mixed up "synchronisation" and "lock". I describe what I do: Unfortunately I cannot record my violin-play at the same location I use my computer. So I cannot use Audacity for multitrack recording, what would be best and most ...

Hi, I plan to buy a ZOOM R16 multitrack recorder. It creates a couple of synchronized wav tracks. When opening each of these tracks in audacity: is synchronisation of these couple of tracks kept? How is it done? Is it possible to open all the wav tracks in the couple at once? Thanks for help, Dieter...

Hello Steve, Edgar and Gale, I must apologize for being quiet as long, but I feel I am demanded too much by this stuff. I was angry with me not being able to verify what I wrote myself. I mixed up files and versions and all together. Since then I opened many projects using audacity v 1.3.13 and I am...

Hello Edgar, I am sorry I cannot verify what I wrote: In "audacity 1.3.13 (ANSI)" I opened an existing wav-file. This file containes the characters "°" and "ü" within the "Metadaten Editor...". The wav-file I opened contained "ä" and not "°" and "ü". I must have mixed up all the different files and ...

Hello Steve,

If I open project "Test 4 UNICODE.aup" in "3.1.12 (Unicode)" metadata shows "°" and "ü".

If I open project "Test 4 UNICODE.aup" in "3.1.13 (ANSI)" metadata shows "°" and "ü".
