One Hit Wonder
Update: See below photos.. seems these are DDS2 tapes, which apparently are a somewhat different animal than DATs.

Not exactly sure where to post this question, so if anyone has a better suggestion, let me know.
Before I got into home recording, my group went into a local “professional” studio to record. Upon completion of our sessions, the engineer gave us 2 DATs, which I assume contain the tracks and mixes from those sessions. Also pretty sure everything was done using Pro Tools. So I’m guessing the tapes contain Pro Tools files.
In any event, I would like to take a crack at remixing some of this stuff. Not sure, however, exactly what I‘d need. I use a DAW and Sonar. I’d like to get the data from the tapes into Sonar, but no idea how to go about that. I probably can live with just the raw tracks, even if I have to align them myself.
Can anybody point me in the right direction? I “might“ be willing to buy a DAT player (if the price is somewhat reasonable) but not sure if that would still allow me to import the tracks. If needed, the tapes are circa 2000. TIA.
