There are a few different ways to do this and few key steps.

Start by making a Copy of your Project so you make sure it’s saved as a package, and also so you can leave the current version on the computer you’re working on as a backup.

  • Go to File > Save a Copy As
  • Save as a package (not a folder)
  • Name the file with “[Song Title] – for mix”
  • Close the original project

From the Finder, find the [Song Title] – for mix Logic project file. This is the file you can share by AirDrop, the Network Drive (blue globe on the Dock), or Google Drive.

When a client completes our project request form, it automatically creates a new project in Basecamp. I’ll ensure the project is “all access,” which means you can join the project yourself.

Here’s how to do it:

  1. from the Basecamp homepage, click “View all in a list” at the top of the project
  2. Click “join” on the project you want to join.
  3. Click “Set up people” and change your status to “on the project.”

Here’s a quick video walkthrough:
