Un-erase SDII files? Biggest "oops" ever....

Post by firth5 »

Long, idiotic story short: I recorded a live show last night to 20 tracks on a Mac using DP, then accidently deleted it, then hit "empty trash".

I have not touched the hard drive in any way since, so the data is theoretically there.

I downloaded an excellent program called "File Salvage," which recovers this kind of lost data, but unfortunately does not recover SDII files. (It can find and reassemble .wav, .aif, .mp3, etc., but not SDII.)

So, PLEASE HELP.

Any guru out there have any thoughts on my next step? Do you know of a program that "un-erases" SDII files? Is there a different way to go about this? rebuild the HD or something?


Thanks,
eric

Nope. That's the software I already bought. I also got a confirmation from their tech dept. that they don't support SDII. Still looking for solutions.....
