Re: I need a file sharing service
Justice -
having done this, you really don't want to be transferring full PT files back and forth - it gets messy.
I'm guessing one person (you) is the master holder of the PT session files and will do the edits, mixing -- you're looking for folks to collaborate on the track and add parts?
Mix whatever you have, and bounce down to a stereo WAV file. Send that one file at 16 bit/44.1 or even MP3 -- and have them create a PT session that imports that stereo track. They can then add their tracks and send you only the ones they've added. The only trick is to make sure they use Edit/Consolidate Region to give you a continuous audio file with no gaps that starts at zero - then when you get the files, it's easy to add them into the master PT session. No gaps, no problem. This also makes it easy for non PT folks to share tracks.
Have them bounce down without effects so that you get the raw track.
Dropbox for free has a 2GB limit; you can give people the password and they can logon via website or install on their computer. http://www.dropbox.com/help/5
Sound easy?
