label requesting hard drive with all pro tool files

i just remove all plugs and all automation... takes me a a couple minutes per song. i do this from a back up of the session though, i always keep my mix files on hand and intact.
 
Cheers James, much appreciated!
I suppose at this stage, Brian's question has received all of the answers he could expect!

haha actually more than i expected.
good stuff to know though


now to make a separate thread about how well labels usually communicate with engineers, because i've had very little. They haven't even given me a deadline for the mix. and the album comes out in late october
