We use Source-Connect basically as an ISDN replacement over the internet. You may find you'll have to configure your hardware firewall if you have one.

Source Connect say "It's a fully featured Pro Tools plug-in which allows broadcast-quality audio to be transmitted between remote locations. Source-Connect enables audio connections between digital audio systems anywhere in the world, allowing direct-to-the-timeline recording with real-time, broadcast-quality audio using DSL internet connections."

It doesn't require expensive ISDN lines or minute-by-minute line charges.The system relies on the Source Connect servers.

Source Connect Status

We use the standard mono 96 kbps version - the quality is subjectively better that the normal 128kbps M2 ISDN format, and allows both the local & remote Pro Tools rigs to synch to each other - and thus to MOV picture files - very easily.

If a higher quality audio file is required then we'd usually just FTP the appropriate file after the session - £10 per 500MB.

Our user names are a1_soundco, a2_soundco, a3_soundco.

RATES for Source Connect link-ups: (min booking 1 hr)

- Studio + 96kbps - £150 p/h + VAT

With picture as "guide" or synched to:

- with MOV/DigiBeta/Beta SP, add £20 p/h to the relevant rate above.
