I suspect (but don't know) that is too coarse. NTFS timestamp precision is 100 nanoseconds or 0.0001 milliseconds.smeezekitty wrote:Unfortunately, it is exFat. Does that mean I am out of luck?Also is your USB drive formatted with FAT32 or NTFS? Usually USB drives are FAT32, but If yours is NTFS and you get the pro version (free trial) of xplorer2 and use View > Raw Contents, it should use the internal NTFS time stamps to time sort the files. The NTFS time stamps are accurate enough to identify which AU file of a stereo pair was written first, so you should avoid the issue of a stereo recording being recovered with left and right channels transposed here and there.
The time stamps allow 10mS precious but I don't know if any software can make use of it.
But you could record a brief stereo project to your USB drive and test out whether xplorer2 can timesort the left/right AU files correctly using exFAT. Please let us know.
