Songwriting with Cubase, Reason
Originally on TEAC A3340 with Roland SH101, Jen SX1000 and Boss DR110 drum machine.
Then onto (gulp) Atari ST with Steinberg Pro-24, SMP24 SMPTE generator, controlling a 64 way MIDI patchbay, and rack loads of synths (Yamaha DX9, TX802, TX81Z, Roland D550, Korg EX800, Sequential 6trak, Ensoniq ESQ1), samplers (Emu Emax, Ensoniq Mirage DSK8/DMS8), drums (Simmons SDS9, Sequential Drumtraks), outboard gear (Aphex Aural Exciter, Korg DSP, Alesis Midifex/Midiverb, Symetrix Compressor, DBX Noise Reduction) and lovely recording kit (Tascam 38, Tannoy Little Reds, Neumann U87).
Now back to a simpler setup, largely PC based so (in theory) I can concentrate on the songs rather than the plumbing!

Online Collaboration Sites Yes, I see. Thanks for that. I need to do some more digging into the structure of my DAW's files next (Cubase). |

Online Collaboration Sites yes, it appears to use its own (simple) loop constructor and drum pattern editor. [Couldn't get much further as my Linux laptop crashed with the Silverlight plugin (Moonlight).] |

Online Collaboration Sites Kompoz again has good musician-centric features, based around WAV, MP3 etc. uploads ... but again not at the low level DAW file. Perhaps I'm expecting too much. |

Online Collaboration Sites The DM.net manual suggests that you can use your own DAW in conjunction with their P2P software, the DM-Container, that supports VSTs, as well as WAV. It does appear to be geared up to be musician focused (unlike simple file sharing like Dropbox) ... and does indeed look weird (e.g. unfinished FAQ page)! I'll probably take a closer look at this to see how they cope with synchronisation. |

Online Collaboration Sites So Dropbox/Clouddrive etc. could be used ... but depending on the DAW's file structure, we may be prevented from attempting anything other than "exclusive" access by one person at a time. |

Online Collaboration Sites Its the async route I'm interested in (I've updated the question), so that would preclude NINJAM, eJamming, OJS. Similarly, Riffworks looks like NINJAM (where you hear others' previous loops as you jam). |

Online Collaboration Sites @Ian, yes, it feels there are some sites in the IT space that offer the co-od, assignment & tracking that @gomad hinted at, like [codeplex] and [Google Code], and others like Kompoz (from @Christian) that are more obviously musician friendly but do not necessarily work at the lower file level. |

Online Collaboration Sites @gomad, To cover both "creative and production side" I meant there could be sharing on both the song creation (tunes, cadences, instrumentation) and production (compression techniques, EQ to apply), e.g. not just input on the final mix. ... I was thinking more asynchronous than live (but allowing concurrency where possible). ... Wasn't so much interested in project co-ordination, assignemt & tracking, except now you mention it, I could see this being useful, especially if the numbers involved grew! I'll update the answer with some more thoughts along these lines. |
