Who: This note is for producers and musicians recording in their own studio
Difficulty Level: 1/5
Purpose: To transfer large files.
In a previous note, I described how to do FTP using Explorer (PC) or Finder (iMac). Using a specialist FTP software is far easier and faster, and many programs are actually free.
FTP Software
There are a number of free downloads of FTP client programs as well as a few that cost a few pounds
- PC: FileZilla (free) etc
- iMac: Filezilla (free) / Yummy FTP etc
At the basic level you need 3 pieces of information
- Name of the FTP Server: in my case www.affinityentertainment.co.uk
- User Name
- Password: this is case sensitive to user capitals or lowercase as given to you
Once set up you can drag and drop files between your computer and the other computer, or vice versa
