Can i move garage band files to an external hard drive? my mac air is low on HD space and i'd like to work on the files through garage band, but on an external hard drive. i know i can do this with eye movie. thanks.

hi each and all out there!


i've looked for answers through the help section of garage band and can't find any topics that fit my situation (so far that is :-)).

a friend recently held a memorial service for her husband and i both video taped and audio taped the service.


She would like some editing done on each (video and audio).


i have a mac air that is pretty much filled up and so i need to work on these files not on my computer, rather from an external drive.

through an iMovie discussion, i've been figuring out how to get video files onto an external drive so that i can work with them there through iMovie.


Now i'm wondering about Garage band and can i move the audio files onto an external drive and then work with them there, through Garage band.


and can i just move more of these files (not yet on my computer) directly to the external drive (like i do in iPhoto)?


Thanks so much ... any help would be greatly appreciated, chris.

MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.6.8), it's the solid state version.
