My first release for Cyborg Philharmonic, "Songs for Robots", is out! Noise galore, and more. ๐
It's Bandcamp Friday, so here's a reminder that I have a new EP out:

Looking for technical help recovering files from an SD card (using computer with Ubuntu)
So today I was copying some sound files that I recorded on a Zoom H1 from a micro-SD in an adapter to my computer. My SD reader had some problems with that adapter before, and this time it lost the connection during copying.
So I connected the H1 with a cable by USB, to my horror two of the files were now, although still named as .WAV, apparently text files of 0 bytes size. When I look at the used space on the card, I see that the 700mb space they take up is still being taken up, so they must somehow still be there.
Is there some program or method that can help me recover them on Ubuntu? I have tried to install "PhotoRec" but couldn't get it to work yet.
Would be grateful for any tips. One of the files is kind of important, luckily I had two mics on the interview so its not the end of the world, but there's some wind on the other mic so I'd really like to recover this file.
Boosts also welcome.
The new release from Cyborg Philharmonic, "Never Become Famous," is out!

Oh, to clarify: not just VoiceLive, all the TC Helicon stuff as well. Like a Mic Mechanic, or any of the various vocal-focused pedals they've made over the years, as long as it has a lot of boost.
Also, using a clean gain piugin along with ok sounding compression works as well. The risk of things not sounding that good is real, but that's another approach.
In any case, just sharing some stuff, while dealing with a thing.
It's bugged me for years that most (all?) audio interfaces that are primarily that, and not mic pres that are also audio interfaces, don't have much in the way of signal boost to them. "No audible vocals for you, bucko! Only normalizers for ye."
It seems like an obvious way to make a lot of people happy, but *shrugs* what can you do.
Some of them function better than others, so you might want to do some research first -- but other than that, they've come in handy when nothing else worked, and I didn't want to spend money on a good pre (which is $$ and up), or take a risk that a cheaper one isn't crap.
