Backup anything with Gobbler

Backup anything with Gobbler

I have been wondering if it was possible to backup other content using Gobbler and yesterday on the Gobbler blog they have shown how to do it…

 

It is a bit of a work around as you need to trick Gobbler in to thinking it is a DAW session folder  but you can back up any file nested within a DAW session folder that Gobbler recognises.

 

In order to back up general files (video, docs, images) that aren’t session files, the solution is to simply place a “session file” and “audio files” folder in that project folder. So, for example, download & use this “dummy” session called photos. Gobbler will then recognise the project folder: Drop any files you want in the folder and you can then back it up normally from within the Gobbler app.

Docs

Videos

Photos

 

This is great for now but lets hope that Gobbler do something to make it a little easier to backup other content.
