I use Audacity all the time for short voice pieces (Rode mic) - say up to 2 or 3 minutes. Last week I tried (stupidly) a longer recording of an interview but got thrown out of the session. An error message said I could retrieve files. Any idea how please?
(Sorry for dumb Windows user query ......)

It wasn't the length of the recording that killed you as much as having the capture session interrupted/damaged.

There have been reports of six-hour capture sessions carried to successful completion.
