What’s the Best Way to Collaborate in Logic Pro? Here Are Your Options For Syncing and Sharing Projects

 

2020 has been a weird year. And given this year’s events, many creatives are forced to collaborate remotely.

The good news is there are plenty of file-sharing services around. But a big question for Logic users is what’s the best service for remotely collaborating in Logic?

At this moment Logic Pro doesn’t have a system for syncing and sharing specific to Logic.

But luckily for us Mac users, anyone with an Apple device can enjoy an iCloud account. It’s free to start, and you have immediate access upon creating your Apple ID.

So while not a file syncing and sharing service specific to creatives, it is pretty helpful.

Of course, if you prefer to use something other than iCloud, there are plenty of other options to choose from:

  • Google Drive
  • Dropbox
  • OneDrive

But did you know there’s a free option specifically for music production? That has no limit on upload size, and even saves different versions of your Projects as your Project progresses?

Plus, it allows you to invite collaborators.

Additionally, Logic Pro does offer Sharing facilities between Logic Pro and Garageband for iOS. It’s a self-syncing system that makes great use of iCloud.

So today let’s explore all these different options for collaborating. Between iCloud, Splice, and Garageband for iOS, your options aren’t too shabby 🙂

    Hi Chris,

    Thanks for your never ending tricks about Logic Pro X.

    Concerning this video, I have a question. Let say that your use Splice or iCloud to share Logic files or projects. Do you by default save all of your Logic projects in one of these clouds, rather than on a local disk, or do you just put what you want to share, at the time that you want to share it with someone.

    I hope that my question is clear !

    Have a good day !

    Pierre

      Hey Pierre, thanks so much for your comment! I personally save my Projects to a local external hard drive first, and then copy/paste to a cloud service. I know some folks have experienced a hiccup or two working from the cloud service directly.

      If you don’t feel like copying and pasting every time you make an adjustment to a Project, try an app like Bombich’s Carbon Copy Cloner. CCC is much like Time Machine in that it can create bootable backups. But it also can copy and paste files and folders around your Mac on a schedule – https://bombich.com.
