I think your best bet is to export and import all the audio files/sessions as 
wav. it makes things a lot easier when exporting and importing back and forth. 
that way, you won't have to worry about pro tools and sonar formats. just my 2 
cents.

  Phil:
  My friend is sighted and she does have experience with Pro Tools.  She will 
be the one operating Pro Tools and doing the exporting of the projects.

  Charles.  How are you going to do the export from Pro Tools in Windows, 
baring in mind the fact that there's no accessibility at all for Pro Tools in 
Windows?

    Subject: [ddots-l] Question about Sonar and Pro Tools


    All:
    I have an ADK Pro Audio computer that I got through DancingDots with Sonar 
8.5.2 and CakeTalking 8.5.4.  I use an M-Audio ProjectMix as my audio interface.
    Now, I have a friend who would like to do some work with me on four 
projects recorded with Pro Tools.
    Here is my question:  Would it be OK if I install Pro Tools in my system in 
order to open these projects and export them to Sonar?  I have been working 
with Sonar for about 7 months and my whole system works very nice for me.  I 
would not like to create any conflicts or unknowingly change some settings that 
could affect the way either Sonar or my computer works.
    Can Sonar and Pro Tools coexist peacefully in the same XP-pro environment?
    Are there any settings in Pro Tools or any plug-in that I should be careful 
with during installation?    

    Finally, if it is OK to install Pro Tools, do you know what is the best way 
to export a project from Pro Tools to Sonar?  I have seen some references to 
the OMF format.  Can I get that from Pro Tools?

    My friend is sighted and she does have some experience with Pro Tools, so 
she will be doing the actual exporting of the projects.

    Thanks in advance for your advise.
