Thanks Bill - that was the solution. It worked quite well with the snd
format.
Just in case you would like to poke around with our easy to use N-
Channel N-Speaker Vektor-based-panning Sound-Dome software, running on
OSX, its public domain and open source soon:

Are you writing aifc files? If I remember correctly, they have a 32
bit limit
on the data size, which sounds like 8 minutes at 44100 36 chans --
(/ (expt 2 32) (* 44100 60 36 4)) is about 10?
In "snd" (i.e. NeXT) files, the file size field should be ignored if
it is
wrong, and in "riff" (wav) files, Snd should automatically move to
using the new extended format -- I forget the acronym. Apple
introduced the "caf" format partly to get around the aifc limitation.
In any case, 36 chans at 44Khz for say 36 minutes looks like
13 GBytes -- I just wrote such a file, but now I'm muttering about
Snd which is taking forever to display it.
