If you have Sonar 7 you can export to .aiff. That option is not available in earlier versions of Sonar.

I don't find it in sonar's file type and export.

You are making the assumption that the ProTools user has the Digi Translator. If they do, then you can export to OMF otherwise don't bother. You can export all tracks to Waves at once which will name the tracks and they should be able to import directly into ProTools. If you have an extremely lazy ProTools to insure full compatibility, export as aiff files. I had a ProTools user that could not import waves for some reason.

In order to export Sonar project files so they can be read by Pro Tools, you need to export/save them as .OMF files. Unfortunately, this setting is one of the file type option check boxes, when you first install Sonar. I don't know if its at all possible to re-instate this option after installing, but I'm sure someone else on the list should know, failing that, I'd contact either Cakewalk or Dancing Dots... Or, as a last resort, reinstall Sonar Laters Mike ----- Original Message ----- From: Stefan Albertshauser To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, July 29, 2008 2:41 PM Subject: [ddots-l] exchange of sonar projects with pro tools users Hi, does anyone have an idea how to export sonar projects so that pro tools users can open it with out any problems? In Germany, you have the problem, that cubase and pro tools are more common than Sonar. Thanks for your answers. Stefan
