Need Help Urgent! Protools / M Audio / Audition

[platiusjack]

Hi,

I have couple of questions. We have a band and we paid an engineer to record our songs and he's pretty good at it. During the process, he got mad at us, apparently for no reason, and now he has sent us the mixed songs and they aren't mixed right at all. We have one song that's done correct and rest of the other songs, he screwed it up big time. I do know that he has done it intentionally. I know that he recorded on Protools. He has commando 8, and I also know that as a fact, he wouldn't mix them right for us. I dont even know if we can take any legal action for this but He is willing to give us Protools native files. I believe he meant sessions.

I have couple of questions:
1. Will we be able to take protools sessions and mix them on something else? On a computer if possible?
2. If it is possible, what formats the native files need to be?
3. I saw online that Pro Tools M-Powered can do that, is that true?
4. I'm fairly comfortable using Audition and is it possible to export Pro tools sessions to Audition?

Help help would be highly appreciated... We just need to find a way to get our songs back, because we have paid lot of money to him.

Thanks.
