File Specs and Transfer
- I work with ProTools. I accept sound files in common formats. Please contact me with any specific questions you may have.
- If you have prerecorded work (ProTools, Digital Performer projects, audio or MIDI files), I can accept them fastest through a dedicated FTP account that I will establish for each client on the web hosting service. This dedicated FTP account will be used for transferring project and audio files.
- When the session files will be transferred via the Internet, there are practical limitation on file sizes I can support. If your project files are going over 2 Gigabytes in size, please contact me.
