Projects
can be imported and exported using the OMF feature
found in the "Professional" version of Pro
Tools.
An
unlimited number of mixes are possible so there
is no excuse for a "bad mix" leaving the
studio (except your budget!). Projects saved and
archived can be revisited and remixed as long as the
DVDROM was well taken care of!

***
As long as each file in your project is exported
properly to .wav or .aif, it doesn't matter
which software was used to record it.
Note:
Each file must have a common start point and have no
breaks in between start and actual audio.
Export
(mixing) Formats:
**Pro
Tools and Nuendo share much in common. One
important item is the export feature: OMF 2.0
With OMF a project could be exported and imported
between the two using this format. This reduces
the need to export individual tracks as wav or aiff
which may take 80% longer.
