<br>
I've been having a strange problem for a long time with Transcriber 1.5.1 and wouldn't mind seeing if anyone on the list understands what's going on.<br>
<br>
When I open a .wav file in Transcriber (recorded at 48/24 on a Zoon H4n), the waveform view looks like it's completely blown out, as though the gain were set much too high. But the audio sounds fine (note that adjusting the gain on the control panel only compresses the view of the whole blown-out waveform, it doesn't actually "zoom out" from it). This is a problem for chunking, since a giant solid line can't be used to anticipate breakpoints. Now, when I import the .wav file into Audacity and export it as an edited .wav file - even if I haven't actually edited it - and re-import it into Transcriber, the waveform suddenly looks fine, and sounds exactly the same as before. Does anyone understand what's going on, and maybe know how to fix it?<br>
<br>
Thanks very much in advance,<br>
<br>
Mark<br>
