File Share Instructions

Occasionally, we may require you to send files to us for sessions or mastering. When sharing files with us, our preferred sharing system is FileMail. An account isn’t required. Also, please note that FileMail will automatically delete the transfer after 4 weeks, so please send the files no earlier than 4 weeks before necessary. To send files using Filemail, please use the following instructions:

1. Go to https://the-bridge-sound-and-stage.filemail.com on your preferred browser and log in to your account if applicable. 

2. Either drag and drop the necessary files onto the page to upload, or select “Add files”. 

3. Once the files have been selected, enter your email for Your Email, and enter your name plus the project name in the Title field. For example, it should look something like “The Bridge - Album Mastering”. Include any other necessary info in the Message field.

4. After everything has been filled in, click “Send”.

If necessary, Dropbox can be used as a secondary option, however, free accounts have a 2GB storage limit. To send files using Dropbox, please use the following instructions:

1. On your computer, batch all of the necessary files into a single folder and compress/zip it. This is done by right clicking on the folder and selecting “Compress” (Mac) or “Create zip” (Windows).

2. Open Dropbox on your preferred browser and log in to your account. If you don’t have an account, you are able to make one for free.

3. From the home page, click “Upload” near the top left of the page, and select “Folder”. Select the applicable zip folder then click “Upload”.

4. Once the file has been uploaded, it should be visible from the home page. Click the checkmark to the left of the folder, and then click “Share” on the right of the page.

5. Enter “info@thebridgesoundstage.com” for the email, then click “Share Folder”.

We prefer either FileMail or Dropbox for sending files but if necessary, we will accept Google Drive. If you are sending files larger than 2GB, please use FileMail as Google Drive will divide the file into multiple downloads and we may miss files this way. If sending files through Google Drive, please use the following instructions:

1. On your computer, batch all of the necessary files into a single folder and compress/zip it. This is done by right clicking on the folder and selecting “Compress” (Mac) or “Create zip” (Windows).

2. Open Google Drive on your preferred browser and log in if necessary. If you don’t have a Google account, you are able to make one for free.

3. From the Drive homepage, click “New” in the top left corner, and then select “File upload”. Select the applicable zip folder then click “Open”.

4. Once the file has been uploaded, you should see a confirmation in the bottom right corner of the screen. Click on the confirmation popup.

5. You should be taken to a screen showing the contents of the folder. Click the three vertical dots in the top right corner of the screen, then select “Share”.

6. Enter “info@thebridgesoundstage.com” for the email, then click “Done”.
