I have a WAV file, 348mb. It won't open in any program, but i can listen to it in the import file dialogue box of CuBase LE. when I import it the time code reads as 0:00:00 start and 0:00:00 end. it is approx 30 minutes long

any ideas how I can recover the sound or open the file?
cheers

Hi There, I was wondering if their is a mastering guideline manual for making sure my masters are suitable for radio broadcast. Someone told me if you use too much reverb that the radio stations wouldn't play them. Is this true? Is there a guide for radio broadcast suitability available for download somewhere?

My old POOGE-II power amp (modded Hafler DH-200) lost the right channel the other day. I haven't gotten it on the bench to determine the cause (no visible kablamo's) but, if the Hitachi power mosfets puked, I'm probably SOL.

What's a good quality, neutral-sounding, 200 WPC amp these days? I can't put multi-K$ into this, either (got a kid starting college next month...)

Hello guys I'm mastering some house tracks and still cant get them to the level of the tracks their bringing me. I know this tracks are clipping but they still sound good. My question is: what place is the best stage to clip to attain more gain. Ive heard the da converters is the best place. Is this true or I'm offset. I got Apogee800s?

Abt 6 months ago I posted here that a mastering CD would be made and sure 'nuff, here it is: A Mastering Cd..

Bet there'll be some others later.

Could this be the end of the loudness war? The beginning of the end?

Hello guys I'm new to mastering myself, and i did a decent job on a few house tracks but theres a subtle difference in volume between some of them after i burn them to CD. How do i get them all together at the same level so the project sounds more unified? Im mastering in pro tools

So I'm going to be recording an album during the summer, and I've got two friends who are engineers willing to do the whole thing for free. The problem is, it'll be in a not so perfect environment, therefore a good mastering job is a must. I don't have a gagillion dollars to spend on it, I know this is going to sound terrible but I need an affordable yet good master.

Hi ive been having some problems when burning to c.d. I'd recently noticed a problem when i burned my mix next to a reference mix. the reference mix seemed to be several decibels lower in volume than it was on a CD i had burned from my i tunes. I have been burning my c.d.'s on windows media player. which may turn out to be a laughable error in judgement I'm hoping.

We seem to be getting shopped more and more and a lot of people are wanting assurances that our mastering will REALLY improve their material they also want some form of guarantee or money back policy. (I guess it is the WALMART way so why not for mastering?)

Typical phone calls that we have received in the past month.

"Do you do mastering?" Answer YES
