ryst Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 I would like to start collaborating with a friend online but we want to exchange wavs and aiffs...no mp3's. We cannot do this through email because we each have a free yahoo account that you can only email 10 megs. So is there any other way to do this online? Or would mailing files through the post office still be the fastest way? www.myspace.com/apocrypha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dman Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 I use http://www.skype.com/. You can transfer files directly to another skype member. It's suppose to be able to transfer up to 4 gig but I've never even come close to that. Works great, you both have to be signed on to skype at the same time.

Flemtone Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Try this: YouSendIt It's a free online transfer service. You go to the website, signify a recipient for the file, then upload it. When it's done uploading, you get an email confirmation with an access link, and the recipient gets the access link via email also. Your file stays on the Yousendit server for about a week. The max size for a file is 1G. I've used it a lot. It's kinda slow uploading, but downloading zips right along. Of course, this could be a result of my isp... Good luck, Tim from Jersey Play. Just play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

where02190 Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Get yourself a domain name and hosting from someone like host for web. For $10/yr registration and $50 yr hosting fee you'll have enough server space to fttp files to and from with no hassles, and each have your own @yourdomainname e-mail address. Splitting the cost that's $30 each. Hope this is helpful. NP Recording Studios Analog approach to digital recording. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E-money Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Do you both have high speed Internet (cable, DSL, etc)? If so, setup an FTP server on one of your PCs. "Politics are like sports, where all the teams suck" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Kantola Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 FTP is very handy and universal, that's how most of our stuff is transferred. You can even access the files with Internet Exploder from anycomputer in the world, and still use a password and username. We had the people who provide the server for our webpage set us up the bomb.

doug osborne Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 The FTP and webserver idea is definitely the best. You could download BitTorrent from www.bittorrent.com. Make a torrent file pointing to your audio file, email the torrent file to your client, and as soon as the client confirms that the file transfer is complete you delete the torrent file and all is safe. Bit Torrent transfer can be very fast - if you have, for example, five band members who need the file, the file transfer will go quicker with more transfers.

henryrobinett Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 I've been using yousendit/com a lot lately. Yes, upload is a little slow. Other than that it's great. Stays up for 7 days. All the best, Henry Robinett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theblue1 Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 With regard to slow uploads... of course, it could be their server. But don't forget, many of us have asymetric net hookups... my own 3 mbps downstream is accompanied by a relatively leisurely 256 MB upstream... bookmark these: news.google.com | m-w dictionary | wikipedia encyclopedia | Columbia Encyclopedia TK Major / one blue nine | myspace.com/onebluenine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
