I want all the project files of my different apps in one folder

I imagine many people use more than one DAW/groovebox when working on songs. But this can get cumbersome with all the project files, synth and FX patches, and sample sets to keep track of.

Ideally, I'd like to have a single "Song" folder in Files, containing individual song folders, each containing all the associated files: Drambo, NanoStudio, and Cubasis project files, custom synth patches, fx chains, sample sets, etc. This way, I can name project files what I want like "breaks", "vocal chops", etc and know that they're for a particular song without having to rename them to the song title. I could then hopefully tap on a project file to open it in the relevant app.

The problem is, most apps don't seem to like it when their project files are moved to folders other than the default (often the root folder). With Drambo, NS2, and BAM, you have to import the project file, which essentially creates a new 'live' version. Not ideal, but I guess it prevents accidental deletion of backups or irreversible edits.

While Korg Gadget has an import function, it won't even open imported files.

Is there a solution for storing project files of different apps in a single location? Or does everyone just live with having them in separate app folders and taking note of what belongs where?

    Surely in some parallel universe. Sadly not in this one.

  • Well that's disappointing lol. I guess projects stay in the relevant app folder until "finished" and then can be archived into a main Song folder and moved back for future reworking etc.

    You can do the archive part in icloud, that’s what I do with my meager free 5Gb, there’s the app’s folders, then I have my own folder, where I copy stuff I want to backup. The app folders that icloud enabled apps create are not to be tampered with, if you like delete and try to create back it’s impossible, even a full delete and reinstall of the app might not fix it
    And those app folders only allow the file types the developer accounted for, so there’s no simple scenario where I see several different apps could coexist in one folder. Sorry
