Make sure (if you use any external files) that they get copied to your song folder.

The only gotcha would be for external files. Just copy that song folder to the external drive for safe keeping. Studio One does a great job of organizing songs and all related files in a single song folder. I record to my internal HD then copy that folder over to my Backup HD when Im done for the day, simple If using DropBox or something similar to transfer the whole folder youll want to compress/zip that file to shrink the size down.ģ. You can actually work on it from the HD you copied it to once you copy it over so the original recording is always on your MacBook if you will. Simply copy that folder to another drive or send it to your buddy with DropBox or something similar. Now all your audio, edits, S1 song file etc will be in that one folder. Simply setup a FOLDER and label it by song name, start a new song and save that song with the same name into that song folder. I dont know what speed your HD is on the MacBook but as long as your just tracking AUDIO tracks you should be fineĢ. If files are first recorded to the Macbook, what method is used to make the transfer to store them, and then to recover them to work on? - is that feature in the Studio One program, or on the Mac?ġ. I'll have to look in to it some more, but I was shocked at how well it worked for the couple of songs I'm doing right now.Īudioplay1 wroteSome I have spoken with say to record to the drive in the Macbook, then transfer to an external drive. You can get really fast 128GB SD cards now for 50 bucks. I mean, how often do we get anywhere near 8GB for a Song? I always back mine up on an external HDD when I'm done working on them so I would never fill it up.

I'm wondering now if I even need an internal drive when I build my new DAW. I've only been doing some basic tracks, no samples or synth's, but for audio recording it's been working just fine. So to get me by while I'm building a new DAW, I just hooked up a USB 2.0 Multi Memory Card reader and stuck an 8GB SD memory card in it, set Studio One up to see it as my User Data Drive and it's been working like a charm. I don't know if you saw the thread where I mentioned this, but long story short, the internal HDD that I use for my audio tracks died. Ya know, I thought I knew the answer to this until a few days ago but now I don't know.
