Pro tools to Sonar and Back?
Is it possible to track in pro tools at a studio, bring the files back home,
open them in sonar, do more tracking on my own time, then take them back to
the PT studio for more tracks or mixdown? Would it be done with the raw wav
files or some other method?

I've gone back & forth from Sonar to PT many times. You need to export to
broadcast wav which is time stamped. Both platforms have no trouble dealing
with this type of file. If you know for sure your going to go back & forth
you need to consider the workflow a bit differently than staying on 1
platform. Effects will not travel with the tracks unless you print them. A
tempo change could also be problematic.

Sure - export tracks as a BWF or AAF. The raw pcm tracks will not be
affected. However it's not like saving a 'project' where plugin chains and
settings etc will be preserved - but that wasn't what you were proposing.
