In all essences, Pro Tools (shudder at the thought of cost) is the industry standard format. Yet there are so many DAWs that are more efficient for alot of people, cost and workflow wise.
My question is this, is it feasible to just use what ever DAW you like then if an outside mixer is needed, consolidate the wavs of each track (w/o plugins) and load them seperatly into say Pro-Tools M-Powered(via MBox Mini -- The USB Stick Version), Save the session and just send that session and the consolidated wavs to the external mixer(or whoever needs the PT Session).
Just a thought, should be easy enough but I don't know if the track limitations and stuff would effect anything, etc..
Is anyone doing this, or thought of doing this?
NOTE: Basically, I like my DAW but if I ever get lucky enough to get bigger bands I'll most likely be sending it out to mix, so compatibility would be a factor at that point..
