I have a question about Raven Lite, I have it on my machine, a PC, and I
could not make it work correctly.  I ran into a couple of problems, the
question I have is, How big a sound file can you load?

I could not load anything bigger than 1 minute and a few seconds long, 5
seconds if my memory is correct.  The other problem I have is I can not
generate sonograms however I know why that is, it has to do with the level=

of Quicktime player I use, there is a gotcha program on my machine that
will not run anything later than 71. and Raven Lite requires 7.2 to
generate sonograms.  That is a problem I can solve if I can figure out why=

I can't load files from the recorder more than 1 minute 5 seconds long...

Any one else running into this?
  Thanks,
Mitch...
