Pro Tools?

Didnt know where to post this one really, so posted it here.

I have been sent a session file of a song to be mixed. I got the usual fade files, session file that you get using Pro Tools. But when I tried to open the wave files they had no extension!

I tried renaming them as .wav or.aiff but they opened as noise rather than the audio they are meant to be.
Anyone got any ideas whats up? Are there any other formats of audio I am not thinking of that are special to Macs?

Cheers,
Eck

Could they be Groove clips? .grv

noise doesn't necessarily mean it's the wrong filetype. it could be the wrong sample type or something to do with sub format..

I dont know what groove clips are, but ill look into it.

Usually if you open up the wrong sample rate say 44.1 as 48 you dont get noise, just a different speed and key of the audio file.

What is a sub format?

Thanks all.
