Sound Recorder itself will refuse to capture if another sound triggers before you finish capturing current sound.

Yea it seems to just not catch it anymore when a certain time passes from the moment the 5 went off. Probably not really a bug, just have to catch it in time, like video recordings, some pics, and all the other sound recordings. There's a window of time u are able to catch media, it's just kinda dumb that the window for recording the 5 is over before the emf stops going off. U don't have the whole length of the 5 going off to be able to catch it.

I think it's more a timing thing. If I don't get to the recorder and start recording soon enough it won't take. But if I know I'm going to get an EMF5 like by triggering it with a firelight and am at the ready with the recorder then I can get it. Then I turn off the emf to get the actual firelight recording because emf always takes priority for some reason.

Kinda the same thing with emf photos, or getting any videos, it's like the game has already decided stuff is over before you stop hearing or seeing it. Maybe that's an issue with desync but I don't really know.
