Hard disk free space and 192Khz/24bit time recording limit...

Question

Hello, when I try to record a long stuff at high sampling rate... 96Khz or 192Khz - 24bit , the max time that I have is 65 minutes whit the metronome set at 20 bpm, the max recording time limit is not active, and the space of the hard disk is of 900 GB... but I have only 65 minute of recording time... is a big problem when I need to record classical stuff or a Live.
--- for 12 channels at 192Khz/24bit in 1 hour of recording time the hard disk space needed is aprox 3,9 Gb... how is possible that LP 7.2.1 limit my recording time ???---- if I go down to 48 Khz I have the time of 248 Minutes of recording... ----

Hello, when I try to record a long stuff at high
sampling rate... 96Khz or 192Khz - 24bit , the max
time that I have is 65 minutes with the metronome set
at 20 bpm.
Try setting the metronome higer, say 30 or 40.
There may be a quirk in that the lowest metronome settings don't always give you the most time.
Failing that, try another application. Do you by any chance
have the OEM version of Cubase LE or Mackie's Tracktion?
Both of those will get you more time at 96khz/24.
(Seems that both of those applications come as freebies with a lot of different hardware)
You can record the tracks in one app then import them into Logic.
