Reply To: Did not Shut Down and Lost Recording

It’s a reasonably likely error for a direct HDD recorder to have. The wav header is written, but the remainder is sat in inodes which haven’t been tailed onto that file yet. You just need something which can figure out the inode pointers, and you should end up with 18 “almost” wav files, which need the header adding.

Hopefully.

I’d reckon all is not lost, but I’ll reiterate, I’d be working on a disk image, not the raw disk.

Possibly a case for a small UPS as well?
