Hi there,
now this is an old issue, but I wanted to mention it, since I found it in the SQ and now also in my first recording from the CQ.
The WAV files from both consoles have some corrupted samples at the end. Most software will ignore this. For example, Audacity just doesn’t give a beep about it. However, when you want to compress your recordings using FLAC for loss-less archiving, you get this:
13OUT5.WAV: 100% complete, ratio=0,42913OUT5.WAV: ERROR: got partial sample
I was annoyed by this enough to write a hacky script that works on Linux (and maybe other OSses) that first processes the WAV files using ffmpeg which will actually complain about the same thing but then tolerate it, and then apply flac to them: https://github.com/DrNI/ah-sq-hacks/blob/main/sq-wav2flac.sh
ffmpeg says:
[pcm_s24le @ 0x55d6b13ba580] Invalid PCM packet, data has size 2 but at least a size of 3 was expected
Error while decoding stream #0:0: Invalid data found when processing input
Not really a feature request, but rather asking for a bug fix.
Best
