I apologize for this late reply. I was deep into some code changes that I wanted to finish first.

Today I tested recording multi-channel files for longer periods. I managed to record a 32-channel 32-bit sound for over an hour. The saved .wav file was at +20GB. I noticed that the Podium CPU usage increased as the recording progressed. When I had passed one hour recording the UI had become very sluggish. That may be the same symptoms you experienced after 15 minutes. It will depend on the system specs of the machine.

How much memory do you have installed?

I’m going to work on improving the performance of long recordings in one of the next releases. Thanks for bringing this issue to my attention.

Thanks for looking at the issue.

It would also be good if the data was somehow recoverable – after a crash. I imagine the data is being written to some temporary file space? Currently all data is lost after a crash. You can probably understand the frustration of recording a one-off concert and losing it entirely due to a crash after an hour of recording.
