Default Convert Digital performer files to PT windows

Does anyone have any experience with this?

I have a hard drive with files recorded using a Mac and Digital Performer. I need these
files converted to Pro Tools Windows format. Not concerned about session data just need raw
tracks converted. What do I need to do?

1. Convert Mac to Mac - DP to PT and then import Mac to PC?
2. Have the guy that tracked the show convert DP to _____?
3. I am completeley screwed and have to haul my PC over and
dump the files in real time to maintain 24 bit resolution?

Files were originally recorded 24bit 48khz.

Thanks for your time!

If you have sd2 files and just want the audio... use my free utility sdTwoWav available at the link below in my sig.

MediaFour's Macdrive in combination with Rail's utilities are a must for every PC based studio in my opinion.

DP usually uses sd2 files. Macdrive will let your PC read the files. Rail's program will translate them into wave files. Easy as pie.

Chris, thanks for the tip, Macdrive looks like something I may need for the future.

Great suggestions guys,
