Default Reaper with more than one user

Hello, my friend and I are looking at this software to be able to collaborate on songs from different locations. Our hope is to email song files back and forth, both having the reaper software to open and make changes. Anyone do this? Is it possible to work on each other's work? Thanks

Not a problem. The only place you may run into issues is with VSTs, both users need to have the same plugins (they don't transfer with the project).

You may want to consider an online storage website (like "Dropbox") to share your files. Project files will quickly become too large for email.

Welcome to Reaperville!!

Enjoy.

I've done it using both dropbox and google and not had a problem so far but watch out on macs as dropbox had a thing where if you overwrote a file with a new file that had the same name and size dropbox wouldn't update it "in the cloud" and only on the local machine. Hopefully that's fixed now though

I've read that Google reserves the right to use your content and change it.

Before you use any such service, read and understand the contractual small print. Otherwise someone-else may publish your hit tunes.
