Major changes to Dropbox Support

This update requires that you relink to your Dropbox

– Location of Dropbox files are now at the top Dropbox level, under a folder named “StudioSixDigital”. All apps using the new Dropbox scheme will use this starting folder, so all SPL Graph files, for example, will accumulate under the same folder name.

– Beneath the “StudioSixDigital” folder are the “internal” and “public” folders. These hold the same files before.

– All folders are now shareable, like any other Dropbox folder* The “.bin” files are renamed with the extension “.xdf” in Dropbox, due to limitations on the number extensions we can store. If these files are to be imported into AudioTools, they must be renamed back to the .bin extension.
