The aup file is 4.7 mb so too big to attach. I have dropboxed it here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/xsazgyambotf4 ... odcast.aup

I guess that the data folder is about 3 GB? That's going to be too big for most free file sharing services. Could you make it available as a torrent? http://tinyurl.com/pcdn9th

Can you not just download it from the dropbox link I posted? I will try the torrent angle as well.

I have downloaded the torrent software but have no idea how to use it properly. The file is uploaded to my dropbox account and is easily downloaded. There is no one in our offices who know enough about torrents to use them. I googled a tutorial but still couldn't figure it out properly.

Wait. Sorry for the confusion... The .aup file is 4.7 mb but the data folder is 32.29 gbs.... You'll need that whole folder? Sorry for the confusion.

Unfortunately the size of the Data folder as a torrent is 3 mb and the max is two Gb's... I too have uploaded this to dropbox and this is the link:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/ycf57jt8ghmy4 ... ta.torrent

I hope this works for you.... THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP!

We don't need the _data folder. We are not downloading GB's of data at our own personal bandwidth expense.

Thanks for the AUP and the file list.

I made things harder for myself by not requesting a time sorted file list so I could see more easily where to break the two channels of the project.

This command would have produced a time-sorted list:

Code: Select all

ls -R -lrt > list.txt
I've attached a project for the first third of the audio.

What you have to do now is trim the original _data folder down to 40 folders from "d00" to "d27" inclusive. Below is the list of folders you need. Move all the other "d" folders (d28 to d76) somewhere else out of the "e00" folder.
