I am a happy Dropbox user since a while - for anybody who does not used it yet: It is cool, that way I finally have multiple PCs and Macs (Office PC, various Laptops, PC/Mac) in Sync regarding my office files as well as it works like a charm when sharing session files with clients…
My DAW is of course offline, but I have a Gigabit Lan with a connection to my office system. Usually I use a big transfer folder on my server to transfer files from DAW to the internet and vice versa.
Because in a modern enviroment so much files are transfered via internet it was never a solution to put them on an USB device first which would isolate the audio-systems even better.
But it would be great to have Dropbox on the DAW as well for direct access… But I fear to install that (small) application and I do not know if this will work on an offline system - the sync itself could be done via LAN but I do not know if the application will need a connection to the Dropbox server…
Anyone on this?
