Does is show up as an external disk? Can't you just delete the files?
Just got the Edirol R1. Passing the tests thus far; clear recording, hooks up to my G5 IMAC with no problems.
OK, here goes; for the audio device challenged among us: How do you erase the contents of the compact flash in order to re-use it? When I dragged the file to my desk top it copied it instead of erased it.
Please don't laugh too hard as you write the reply.
Thanks!
