Along the lines of Internet collabs, Patrick asked this same question in the recording forum. When collaborating, it's plenty good enough to use an MP3 during the tracking phase to send your files back an forth. It's quick its simple and most recording programs and make use of them now. However, keep track of what was the MP3 and where the master file is. Use MP3's during tracking and trading, but when it comes to the final mix, make sure the engineer has all the actual WAV, SDII, or AIF files on his machine. I don't recommend using MP3s or any lossy type files of any kind for your final mix. It's not wise. That includes FLAC, Apple Lossless, and APE. I've done lots of studio collaboration with MP3s during the tracking phase, but always spend the time to upload the actual WAV files once everything has been agreed upon. One really cool project I did this way was the Tiger Wood's 2004 game soundtrack with a friend in Australia. Jody ------------------ Music That Makes Your Soul Happy! www.jodywhitesides.com
