File Management
This section explains how you can optimise your system for speed
and manage your wave files effectively.
System Optimizing
When you record wave data, WaveEditor will store recorded data
directly to the hard disk. High resolution recording of data,
particularly 16-bit data at 44 kHz, would take longer to write to your
disk if it is not optimized for speed.
You can reduce the time your system spends reading and writing data
by compacting your hard disk using a disk-compaction utility such as
DEFRAG and installing a hard disk cache such as SMARTDrive.
Number of Open Files
WaveEditor does not limit the number of files you can open. But the
number of files WaveEditor can open at a time depends on how you
specify your operating system configuration. For more information
on how to do that, consult your operating environment’s
documentation.
Use of DOS SHARE Utility
It is recommended you use the DOS SHARE utility to allow proper
file sharing and locking. This will prevent you from accidentally
deleting a file while WaveEditor is accessing it. For more
information on how to uses this utility, consult your DOS
documentation.
Compressed Wave Files
To work effectively with compressed wave files, you need to know
how compressed files are opened and edited.
Opening Compressed Files
WaveEditor currently supports 5 compression formats: Microsoft
ADPCM, CCITT A-Law, CCITT µ-Law, IMA/DVI ADPCM, and
Creative ADPCM.
