Ok, so over the weekend I recorded a gig (16 channels in OSX) in the broadcast wav format. I transferred the files from my mac to his windows machine and he was unable to open them up in Cubase SX1 for XP. (Sorry for the history) Now, this guy is game, so he just installed FC3 and the CCRMA at home system in a partition. He subsequently attempted to open the files in ardour and was unable to. Do these files get corrupted on NTFS? Should they have a different extension? Any thoughts? Matthew Polashek matt@tinysongs.com www.tinysongs.com
