I had been setting my tempo down to 10 bpm but there seems to be a strange phenomenon (I won't say "bug") that was reported in the LUG a while back where a setting below 20 bpm actually reduced the recording time to around 72 minutes. Sure enough, when I started using a tempo of 25bpm I was able to set recording times as long as I needed (or had disk space available) Also, given Logic's limit on the number of 1/4 notes it will record, I usually change my time signature to 4/16 instead of 4/4, and also, don't forget to drag the max. measure number out to a point where you have the time you need displayed in the transport window.
