Hello everyone, I have a customer who uses an Intel mac with Boom Recorder. When he records with "Core Audio Format (.caf)" Boom Recorder crashes at the end of the recording. Could someone with a Intel mac try this and see if it crashes for you as well? I've been looking at this problem for some time now, and I can not find the cause of the problem. The problem does not appear when running Boom Recorder in Rosetta. I would like to know if this problem is systematic for all Intel Macs or only on his setup. Cheers, Take

Zaxcom recording wireless now shipping

Our beta testing of recording wireless is now over and we are shipping the released product. The TRX900 digital recording wireless now records audio on a 2.0gig mini SD card and provides 12 hours of uncompressed recording. The units record in a loop providing time code referenced access to the last 12 hours of recorded audio. Any bit of audio can be transferred from any location on the card. The file system is FAT32 so that PCs and MACs can both transfer audio. Zax file utilities are available for both platforms. The file system is based on Zaxcom MARF that is audio centric and totally fault tolerant. Memory cards can be physically removed or the TRX900 can be powered dow…

On Saturday June 24 at 1:00 PM I will present a seminar on “Recording Digital Wireless Microphones†to Local 695. The Seminar will cover all aspects of the benefits of digital wireless over current radio technology. There will be real time demonstrations of audio quality and transmission range as well as demonstrations of the multi-track wireless microphone recording capability. (Pat Pend) We will answer the question of how to transition from current workflow to a workflow that does not depend solely on the reliability of RF microphone links in an environment of diminishing spectrum. The entire wireless system will be on display as well as the Deva …

Hello, A rep. is coming by the shop today with a motorized magliner. I was just reading the battery choices everyone is using, and realized how heavy some of the sound carts are and the utility carts sas well. apparently there is a motor by the wheel base (more info later,after we see it) that with a finger control at the handle can easily move the cart from set up to setup and on the truck at wrap. probably the 3rd will like this concept better, but you never know. I will have a web link lkater if anyone cares. thanks, great info guys, I feel what LL is talking about. nice posts everyone. thanks again.

Hello everyone, I am planning on releasing Boom Recorder version 6 this weekend, after doing some test to see if everything works as expected and seem to be stable using my system. The new version will include a couple of new time sources, including time-of-day, which a lot of people seem to be waiting for (weird how such a request come from multiple customers at the same time). An other feature was created by cleaning up some of the ring buffer code, Boom Recorder will now keep the pre record buffer, even during playback. This cleanup also solves some issues with the recording indicator, which sometimes was flickering off and on during recording, which does not instil…

Hello everyone, I made a lot of changes in the core of this version, which is why I updated the major version number. I moved the timecode decoder to a separate file, in case I want to use it for an other project. I also changed the ring buffer handler so that It is more simpler, this also caused the ring buffer to keep a pre-record buffer even during playback. I also fixed the ring buffer view for this state (pre-record buffer + playback) and fixed the glitches in this view as well, it shouldn't be flickering anymore. I also added new timecode sources, as many people have been asking for time-of-day. I tried to be as accurate as possible, time-of-day is converte…

Hello everyone, I changed the ballistics of the RMS/VU meter, it is now a little less twisty. I also added 32 float recording to BWF files, I have no idea how many edit programs will handle this, but 32 bit floating point is the format in which Boom Recorder receives the audio data from Core Audio. And a couple of other small changes. Cheers, Take

Hello everyone, I would like to spend this opportunity to tell you about the new version of Boom Recorder. This new version of Boom Recorder now handles 64 channels, instead of the previous 32 channels. Although most people doing feature film work would probably not need 64 channels, it seems to be that for recording concerts this is quite useful. This change did come at a cost, instead of using only 200 MB it now uses around 400 MB of memory. I know that many people here already have a lot of memory in their computer, so I hope this is not a problem. Cheers, Take Vos
