ACID AND PRO TOOLS

[Gerald-o]

I use SOHO to move ACID files (or any file) back and forth between my G4 and my PC. It's $50, you can buy it online from their website and since it uses NetBEUI you can still access the internet with your existing TCP/IP settings. Oh yeah, I connect them with a Netgear (DS104) hub. My broadband connection goes in the uplink port and the two boxes connect to 2 of the remaining ports. But if you use a dialup modem then I think you just leave the phone line connected to the PC or Mac. But if you have broadband in the uplink port they can share a connection...too much information.

i have a regular dial up isp and the computers will not necessarily be in the same room.......

do i have to have a network or email the files to myself?

thanks again. [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img]

i drop the files onto a zip disk and walk them over to my mac!

ok that makes sense......please excuse my ignorance..i am as tech minded as a bar napkin is the zip disk readable by both the mac and pc?

not having a zip disk on either box can i do this with a cd-rw without hassle?

thanks again guys [img]images/icons/tongue.gif[/img]

Yes, you can. You have to take care wich type of disk you burn....there are some incompatibilities. For example....dont use long names since the pc wont understand. Other then that: good solution, i use it to go from mac to pc and after some strugles its working great!

i am a long time mac guy who is about to buy a second windows box for home. i am also going to mess with ACID on it.

what is the best way to take audio files from acid and drop them into a pro tools mac session?
