He recommends that for safety, before the first sync, it might be worth manually copying all of the files on Slave computer from Dropbox folders to their respective home places. Once it’s setup you never have to worry about it again. It’s a little work to setup, but moves quickly once you understand the process and have the hang of it. You can do it multiple times a day or once a week. Then Click “Add to Schedule” and select when and how often you want it to run.Hit open and repeat till you have added all of them. Click “Add” at the top and you will see you individual syncs in the “ChronoSync Documents” Folder it automatically goes to.Once you have all of these individual Synchronizers set up, make a new Container in ChronoSync that will run all of these individual ones automatically on a schedule.

Eleven Rack presets, Guitar Rig Presets, Pro Tools Presets, plug-in presets, Logic presets or sounds etc.

Repeat this for all the folders/files you want to sync.

Make sure it’s a bidirectional sync so if you make a new preset on your slave rig it will show up on your master rig.

So choose “users/documents/Universal Audio/Sessions”

Choose the Right target location - this is where that folder needs to live on the slave computer so that the UA Apollo mixer actually sees these presets.

Choose the Left target location - this will be the “UA Sessions” folder that’s in the “studio sync” folder in Dropbox.

In ChronoSync choose “new synchronizer”.

Now on slave computer you need to open ChronoSync and set up some synchronizations to move these files to the correct places on your slave computer.

Voila, now it’s going to show up on your slave computer.

Put it in the “Studio Sync” folder you’ve made

Then you choose where in Dropbox to put it.

It opens MacDropAny and you select you want to sync via DropBox.Right click this folder and select “Sync Via MacDropAny” “Universal Audio Sessions” in “My Documents” to sync session files for a UA Apollo.

On Master computer go to a folder you want to sync eg.

Install Mac Drop Any on master computer.

Install Dropbox on both computer and make a folder called “Studio Sync” or something similar.

ChronoSync - syncs files from Dropbox to other locations on slave computer.Īll in all this costs $40 USD and now saves him headaches and time and he always has that latest preset he made on the road or in studio! This is this system….

Mac Drop Any-allows you to put ANY folder into Dropbox to sync on the Master computer (regardless of its location on your computer).

Dropbox - to do the automatic syncing behind the scenes.

Garret took our suggestions and built on them and fully implemented a system that is not only simple but automatic once it’s set up and he wanted to share it with the community. Community member Garret Miller reached out to us on the Pro Tools podcast a few months ago asking about syncing Pro Tools presets and other relevant files between two systems so he always had the same Pro Tools presets etc available on both systems.
