Hi all! My friends and I are hoping to continue writing and recording music though we live very far apart now. We all use MacBooks for recording tracks, and I was curious if anyone has a good way to share/sync our recordings with each other.

Years ago I used Resilio Sync without much fuss, though I’d lean more towards Syncthing now. I have a always-on and internet-connected home Linux server. Thanks for any suggestions!

Edit: I forgot to mention my buddies are not techy types, so ease-of-use on their end is an important feature.

    Nextcloud maybe? Not specifically geared toward collaborative music recording, but maybe you could come up with a good workflow.

    It’s an interesting use case. I’d be curious to see what you (and/or others) come up with.

      Thanks for the suggestion! It’s the workflow part I’m worried about. 😄 I was kinda thinking a git would be perfect: different branches are different versions or styles of the song, versioning is taken care of, and probably other benefits I can’t even dream of. But my friends won’t be staging and committing. I also haven’t done this in a while, so it’ll be cool to see what others may know about.
