Not only were these just individual tracks, but they were labeled "HFITSTkik, HFITSTsnr" etc. AND, they were all normalized...

Nomalization - I hate that process; I've yet to hear anything that's had that done to it that doesn't sound like crap. And as far as track names - I'm not taking the side of the person that did the naming but to a certain extent we're kind of stuck due to naming limitations (space) in each daw with PT being one of the worst. Sure you can name a track 'male vocal omni 1' but that gets truncated to fit PT's track name space. Do the same thing in Digital Performer and you can see the whole name.
