Not ideal, but i've worked that way before
nah thats a complete pain in the arse. I'm sure that at any one time, most techno guys have at least 10 tracks they would be happy to collaborate on. It would take a shitload of time to organise, export, compress and send all files back and forth... there just isn't enough time in the day for that sort of ****ing about when all you wanna do is jam some awesome music.

...and people use different gear and plugins and thats only 1/4 of the problem.
