I'm a newbie, both to Behringer and this forum. I have an x32 with an X-live card. I recorded my band's two hour session onto a 32GB micro card. Rather than producing 1 file (with 16 tracks), it produced 7 individual tracks that had to be imported separately into my DAW and pieced together. Is there any way to get it to produce one file?
Thanks for any advice!

Re: X-Live - Recording broken into multiple files
Welcome to our forum. The answer to your question is - no not really. Fat32 (which the SD card has to be formatted to for X-Live) has a 4Gb file size limit. So the X-Live card makes multiple 4Gb files in order to record the 16 tracks for 2 hours. Those files are not "7 individual tracks". Instead, they are 7 multitrack wav files.
If I remember correctly, @pmaillot has a tool to combine those multitrack files.

Re: X-Live - Recording broken into multiple files
Hello,
The XLive session will have to be made up of n times 4GB files. This is a limitation of wav / FAT32 file format.
A single file is 4GB max. If you have a recording that lasts longer than whatever these 4GB represent (depends on the sample rate and the number of tracks) you will have more than one 4GB file. They play seamlessly though. SW programs know how to jump from one file to the next.
