Merging Projects From Different Computers/sequence, Mac & PC Options

[Atahualpa]

Hi,
I am collaborating with a friend on an electronic music project, now, he works on a PC and Cubase, I work on DP4.52 and Mac. If we decided to use only one computer on a live performance (to have a unique internal clock), could we keep separated audio track versions of his and my tunes so that we could mix them in real time (mixing within each tune and against eachother for continuity)? In this case what kind of platform would be use to montage his and my material (which I guess would be an array of audio tracks)? The other only possiblility I see is creating MP3s of his and my stuff, but in this case we would have a much smaller maneouver margin, since we could mix the tunes against eachother using a virtual mixer like Traktor DJ, but we could not manipulate induividual tracks within each tune during the gig.

I hope my above description is clear enough and hopefully some of you have already experience on this topic.

Thanx in advance and groove on!!!

Hi,

I am collaborating on an electronic music project with a friend working on a PC with Cubase, me, I use DP4.52 running on a Mac. We're wondering if there's a platform that would allow us to use his tunes and mine as multiple audio tracks sequences, (instyead of stereo files) to have full control of individual instruments and at the same time be able to mix them live within each song and against eachother, using a single computer (to follow a unique internal clock).
The only other way I could think of, in order to ensure the continuity needed for this type of music, would be to convert all songs to say, MP3 and use a virtual mixer like TraktorDJ. However, this would completely restrict the maneuver margin for live mixing each individual track (instrument) within songs. Has anyone already been confronted with such a situation?

I hope my explanation makes sense and thank you in advance for sharing your knowledge!
Keep groovin',
