Can I Bring/Transfer my Soundbank folder

Post by Patricio »

maybe some advice from you.

i'm gonna record soon in a Studio with PT 6.9... big system
the guy told me that they also have Machfive ...but didn't use it sofar, because there was no need for it..
Since i use it with DP 4.6.1 i was wondering if i can copy my Machfive soundbank folder to a HD and than bring it to his studio, to get it working with his version of Machfive on PT. I have alot of soundbanks. So it could be handy .

Hope you can help.

Hi Patricio,

Easy enough. Simply place your Machfive Folder on a separate drive (FW/USB 2.0) and load M5 on the Protools system drive. When you are asked to locate your M5 Folder locate it on the external drive.

P.S. Remember to bring you iLok key for the ProTools system.

No a bad idea, but since they have M5 his iLok would probably NOT be unnecessary.

Well no one is going to fault you for your passion (except maybe... oh wait, NO MORE POLITICAL POSTS!) :)

Actually, I like that law! Can we still make sexual inuendos? Maybe a musician jokes section?

Presumably, the client would also have an iLok (or in Scotland, would that be an iLoch)?
