Portable bundles?

Postby giomakyo » Wed Feb 19, 2014 3:22 am

Hi,

About to embark on a major Mac OS leap from 10.5.8 up to present.

While this is still within OSX itself, the last time i jumped from OS9 up to 10 i had a lot of problems opening old files, with port issues and -- more disturbingly -- missing audio files. At the time, i was told to back up my metro files as portable bundles, which i intend to do. Just wondering how foolproof those are. Anyone out there have any experience with this?

I have an album in the works and am almost considering backing it up as wav or aif stems just to be safe....

Thanks,

Gio

The best way to transport Metro files so that all of the externally referenced files are contained, is a bundle file.

Glad I did this. Trying to open old projects on a new OS/ Metro upgrade resulted in no audio loading, but the portable bundles worked just fine.

I think you can get the audio to load if you place it in the same folder as the Metro file.
