    How to come up with collaborations when you have to work online with internet?
    What tools do you use and what way is the best to work for a lot of hours per sessions?

    Just an Idea
    I was thinking about skype (or facetime for all mac lovers), but there are some problems. How to connect DAW output to skype input to "stream the project" in the best way possible to your friends? How to switch between the conversation with your mate and this "streaming" in skype or facetime?

    Every imaginative replies are welcomes!

    Download and install the desktop version of Whatsapp https://freewindows10.download/soft/whatsapp. You can easily communicate with your clients or collaborators. Also, it is well-optimized and you probably use the mobile version on your smartphone.

    Yes but those files are huge. You should conduct auditions in mp3 and once you get what you want, THEN ask for stems in wav format or some other HD format. Saves need for resending big files. THAT is exactly how my project site works.

    You may want to take a look at Gobbler. It's specialized in uploading/syncing and sharing Audio Projects and sessions

    Alternatively you could use any other cloud based storage with versioning support, such as:

    Dropbox
    GoogleDrive
    Sync.com

    Save the session in your folder that's getting synced and everytime you change something the client app will upload the updated project file to the cloud.
