I've been wondering about this for a while now because I'd like to find someone to do a collab with at some point (it's not the point of this topic at all but I use FL if anyone's interested).
How does collaborating with people over the internet usually work? How do you personally do it?
Do you generally work in tandem communicating via IM or whatever or is it more "you add a bit, I add a bit, this is either gonna turn out great or mercilessly shit" -- or something in the middle?
Cheers for any insight! |

Pretty much. I've not collabed in over a year now, but whenever I did, I used to just grab the project by the horns and do it all xD I was a terrible partner :P |

I've done my fair share of them, and they actually work out pretty well.
You generally just add whatever you feel like, and mess around with what the other person just did. Its sort of a pass off where you both keep ****ing with it until you reach a happy compromise :) |

When I and Anthony did Ocean Breeze we'd pass the ball, sorta. We took turns, and zipped the project and sent it when the sessions were over. Sometimes he'd also livestream and we'd work on it live. |

Okay, thanks, guys.
If you're passing it back and forth like that, how does it generally start? Surely you need some kind of shared vision and idea of where the track is going? |

Oh hey, I just posted a topic about wanting to collab with someone. Then I saw this post.
I also use FL, and would love to collab on a track. I'll shoot you a message! |

Never done it myself for that one reason! It seems like it could be very disastrous, too many things could go wrong. You'd also both need all the same VST's, which can limit either person. I do like the livestreaming idea, possibly have a guy with great ideas watch the stream, giving his ideas and the better engineer streaming it to do the technical parts, definately makes sense! |
