[comp.sys.mac.hypercard] Mac Recorder/HyperSound problem, they claim its Hypercard's

biling@ucscd.UCSC.EDU (Doug Rosener) (03/30/89)

I have been using a Mac Recorder, and in particular HyperSound
for an application that uses lots of recordings.  After a random number
of recordings (usually >10), the program dies, and the resource fork is trashed.
I called up the makers of MacRecorder, and they said it is a problem
with HyperCard, that it can't handle lots of snd resources.


Is this true?  Or is it their software?

i dunno about this, when i first received my macrecorder, i played around alot,
 making lotsa sound files (usually in soundedit, since the hypersound stack
was too limiting). at the time, i'd take all my sounds (that were small enough
to be played in hypercard) and put them into a single stack... in time, the
stack had over 80 sounds, and totaled over 2.5 meg. i never liked the hypercard
sound digitizing program, it locked up a few times on me, i just put it way in
the back of the disk holder and went on with life. i'm pretty sure it's not
because of hypercard.
