yeah those are all reasonable explanations but not in my situation... i was watching 
the MD unit, no one went near it, it was recording from my own microphones, not the 
desk... also it was a small gig in a small pub, not very loud at all... 

i might muck around with it at home with my desk and pa equipment... see if anything 
interferes with it...

cheers,
jason (sorry for emailing you twice GC but i accidently didnt reply to all :o)

Another Idea .... 

Most portable recorders will only take a certain amount of shock (vibrations), before
they will stop recording.  If this was relatively loud concert the vribrations
may have caused the MZ-R91 to stop recording.  Continous vibrations are just
as likely to cause a recorder to drop out of recording mode as droping it on the floor.
(as the heads never get a quiet time to realign for recording .. regardless how
many seconds of shock memory are available).

Experiment with your MZ-R91 to see what it takes (vibration wise) to cause it to drop 
out of
record mode ... (sit in on the washing machine in spin cycle, on top of a speaker 
playing 
loud bass signals, on the bonnet of a rough idling car  ... just a few ideas).

It could be the vibration problem ... or maybe LarZ is right .. the sound desk dude 
just
simply stuffed up !!!
