Ableton Forum

i posted this on another site and wanted to verify the response i got.

problem : at the 3020 mark … It STOPS recording… WHY.. who knows…happens every single freaking time…. Cant record a two hour mix to save my life…. WTF….. do you know about this/ ever experienced it ????

it just stops recording… and wont let me start recording again… I have to save shutdown reopen then start again

has anyone experienced this problem.
we are both running 7.07

response from other user : welcome to the windows file size limit, enjoy your stay!

only solution is to start a second recording and merge them.

is this fact?

thanks ahead of time everyone.

what samplerate are you recording at? And yes, it does get EXTREMELY annoying.

What I'd do is record for like an hour and a half, then start a second recording to run in paralel. Then splice them afterwards.

i appreciate it. its my buddies machine i turned onto ableton a while back. trying to help out. i will pass this on to him.

change your master tempo to 60 bpm to double your recording time,30 bpm to quadruple recording time etc etc...
