Bug Description
There are options to split recorded mixes at various file sizes. It would be nice to have a check box to disable splitting the file.

I am currently working on the recording engine, and I believe that this should not be an option.
Concretely, I believe that such use cases should use the biggest size, which is 4GB. (Maybe it could be labeled as indicating max allowed size)
Also, it is important to note that due to the way that this is implemented, it only splits the "WAVE" and "AIFF" recorders, because the others are not currently reporting the written size.
Reasons why the 4GB limit should be kept:
the WAV and AIFF container formats that we are using are 32bit. This means that they cannot indicate a size bigger than 4GB.
