He needs Digitranslator to import OMFs into PTools, unless it's included with PT LE (knowing digi, I doubt it).

1.add a blank piece of audio to each track so that they all start at the same time
2. merge each track (can be done all at once) into a new track
3. each track should now be one continuous track, all starting at the same time.
4. option click the soundbite name in the sequence window to relabel the track correctly
5. open soundbite window and do a sort by date created
6. the new merged tracks should be at the bottom
7. highlight the new tracks and select export from the soundbite mini menu and export all at once to whatever format you want.

I found this info from another post but couldn't find it (might have been at osxaudio.com). Anyway, it works great and enables you to process multiple tracks at once.

That merge tracks idea instead of bouncing is f&%king brilliant! It's one of those things that's so obvious once you hear it...
