Musician and Producer
Right now, I'm doing a collab track with ToothandnaiL. I'm just wondering what everybody else does for collaborations.
How do you collab? Do you have useful tips? If you work online, how do you work over the internet?
We're basically sharing .wav files back and forth because we're on different DAWs. If we have the same DAW, we can share the actual project file. Sharing the .wav file seems to work though. We're basically each taking a role. ...like one producer takes drums, and the other takes melodies/bassline/harmonies, for the initial song writing. After we have the song made essentially, we can each go back in to add some polishing edits and stuff. ...but i find it hard to work back and forth on melodies together because of different styles so personally think splitting the work between instruments (drums, melodies - lead/backing/etc) is easier for the initial phase of just getting started on a collab song.
But ya, please feel free to share your tips. I'm curious to know what everyone else does and it can help others too if we share these tips.
