Rholeen Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 I am trying to split a talking book file 17 hrs in length into 3 min intervals. When I try to load to split i get the following messages I receive message " insufficient hard drive space to store the audio" and another " Wavepad could not open the file for editing" I have 16gb available on Hard drive Thanx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nchBen Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Hi Rholeen, Do you know the format of the audio from the talking book? If the audio is recorded at typical CD quality then a 17 hour file will actually require more than 21GB of hard drive space to work with.

Rholeen Posted April 22, 2016 Author Share Posted April 22, 2016 Thanx Ben The file is mp3 and size is 980592 kb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rholeen Posted April 22, 2016 Author Share Posted April 22, 2016 I transferred music file to expansion drive where I have 80 gb free and got the same message Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nchBen Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Hi Rholeen, The issue is that WavePad needs to decode the file in order to be able to work with it. WavePad will use the drive where it is installed for this purpose - not the drive where the audio file is located. I'm afraid the only option you have is to try and free some room on your main hard drive. Regards, Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
