Sending tracks to other people

If he is also running sonar, you can just burn the entire song file plus the audio folder to a DVD and mail it to him. Usually the entire thing is just too huge for emailing as say a zip file. Alternately, if you have storage space, you can upload it to a server and have him download it from there. Best, Ed

Set up a Soundcloud account  and send the individual tracks there as separate files.  Make sure you set them as downloadable.  You will need to bounce down each track separately as wav files by muting all the others.

Forget step 1, use a per-project folder instead, bundles are not worth the trouble or risk. Don't expect too much compression when you zip up the project folder. If you want to ship a smaller project, perform a "Save As" (make sure the "copy audio with project" box is checked). The "Save As" function will create a project that only includes audio actually used in the project.

A bundle is just the project file with the audio appended to the end. Sometimes these get corrupted and will not unpack correctly. Years ago bundles were the only reasonable way to consolidate the parts of a project for sharing. When per-project directories came along, bundles became redundant. Single files can easily be created by any number of archiving utilities that have proven more reliable than bundling. If you are going to zip anyway, why go through the extra step of the bundling process.

I have tried several different things over the years. 

Everything from sending the bundles to individual tracks and more. 

If you are working on a project together, the most efficient way I have found to work across the net is for you to record as much as you can to give the idea of the song.... export the wave and convert it to an MP3 and email it to him. I suggest leaving 2 empty measures in the song and be sure the click is audible in those 2 lead in measures. 

When he gets it he simply sets the project up, sets the tempo and imports the MP3 and goes to work. Some folks don't like working with mp3, although I have never had issues with them.....waves are just as good and with a file server site, easy to share.   He sends waves back to you since you are mixing the project. I use Drop box and simply share that folder with everyone in the collab. They are able to go in and get files and leave files. 

Midi files for entire midi projects are small and are no problem to send in most cases attached to an email.

I just had someone send me a zipped project with 8 audio tracks in it. Sendspace was the file server.... aside from the fact that it's pretty hard to tell where to clikc on sendspace these days... all the links have some sort of DL on them and you don't want the crapware..... but I did eventually find the right one. A few minutes to DL it, and unzip it and it loaded up and ran just fine.

On the song Come & Go on my music page.... the music was recorded here with Sonar, while the vocals were recorded at another studio in the next town over, running Pro Tools.... we had absolutely no problems sharing files to make that song work. 

Maybe filemail, i have been using that both for .cwb and other fileformats.
Works great.
