A question... you said that you exported all the tracks and sent them. Wouldn't it be just as effective to simply send the song (even as an mpg) and they could track to that? Just wondering...



In this case, I want Rog to have individual WAV files so he can, if he chooses to, replace the guitar, the bass.... if I sent it "compiled" into a stereo track he could not pick out just the bass or just the guitar.

I would be interested in knowing the computer logic behind the statement that zip or rar reduces quality. I dispute that though because all it does is compress FILE SIZE, not content. And it does so with a mathematical algorythm where it find similar strings inside a file and replaces them with a variable. So if the hexidecimal information inside a file finds a sting of 74Fa5D3A2 10 times ane replaced that string with a +, that is 10% compression. Then when the other side inflates, it goes the other way. Zip and rar don't touch what is inside the file. If it did, it would then have some effect when you zipped a GIF or a bunch of JPG files and the output would not be the same as the input.

Compression doesn't mean the same thing here as converting a WAV to an MP3 because you put a WAV in, you get a WAV out.
