I am doing some test with Boom recorder (BR) for a shoot and I have experiences some minor issues. My set-up is MacBook Pro with Mbox-Mini recording onto the internal drive also mirrored on an external firewire 800 drive as a back-up. It happens often that BR is telling methat the recording aborted when I am pressing the record button. It says: "could not open file 0 with file name ..., file exists"
I have tried different thing and nothing seems to fix that issue, after one or two record files the same message reappears again. How to set-up a simple one wireless and one boom recorded into separate mono tracks?
 
Well, first, I would contact Take Vos (the author of BR). He is very responsive and certainly can help you.

But, the first thing that comes to mind for me is this. Have you set BR to automatically rev the take number each time you press stop? If not, and you are not reving the take number manually, then you are trying to record with the same file name each time. Go into preferences and set it to rev and I'm guessing your problem will be solved.

Hope this helps.
