QUADRIGA v2.5 supports the new EBU RF64 format


The new EBU standardized RF64 file format is supported by QUADRIGA version 2.5, thus overcoming the 2GB / 4GB file size limitation.

This improvement means that ingesting long-form media at higher sampling rates, such as 96 or 192 kHz, can now be done without the need to split the recorded file into smaller segments or single-channel components. QUADRIGA can now "dynamically" switch between BWF or Microsoft Wave and RF64 base format (depending on the resulting file size of the recording), in order to obtain the best possible compatibility with standard media players. QUADRIGA v2.5 is fully compliant with the EBU standard as defined in the EBU Tech 3306.

Sony's proprietary WAVE64 file format is also supported now. Other new features in QUADRIGA v2.5 include many customer suggestions, like improved handling of BWF data entries and parallel recording modules, as well as an extended Archive Number dialog, among others.
