Pro Tools Reference Guide 222
Only destination tracks that match the track
type (audio, Instrument, MIDI, Auxiliary Input,
or Master Fader) and the channel format (mono,
stereo, or any of the supported multichannel
formats) of the source track appear in the pop-
up menu.
Find Matching Tracks
(Pro Tools HD and Pro Tools LE with
DV Toolkit 2 Only)
If you are importing playlists from source tracks
with the same name as destination tracks in the
current session (such as a new cut of a scene),
click Find Matching Tracks to automatically
match the track names. Tracks must have the
same name, track type, and channel format to
be automatically matched.
Session Data to Import
(Pro Tools HD and Pro Tools LE with
DV Toolkit 2 Only)
The Session Data to Import menu is where you
select which attributes of the selected tracks you
want to import into the current session.
Selected attributes are applied to all tracks that
you choose to import into the current session.
Replacing Track Attributes
When you import an attribute of the source
track into an existing track in the current ses-
sion, it replaces the corresponding attribute in
the destination track. If you choose not to im-
port an attribute of the source track, the corre-
sponding attribute in the destination track is re-
tained.
Replacing Track Path Names
When you import a track’s input, output, send
output or hardware insert assignments, any cus-
tom path names and I/O configurations from
the source session are not imported. You can im-
port path names and I/O configurations by im-
porting I/O Setup settings. See “I/O Settings
Files” on page 57 for more information.
Selecting Track Attributes to Import
You can select All, None, or any combination of
the listed attributes to import. The following at-
tributes are available to import:
All Imports all of the source track’s playlists, ac-
cording to the Track Playlist Option setting, and
all of the attributes in the Session Data to Import
list.
None Imports only the source track’s main play-
list, according to the Track Playlist Option set-
ting, and no other attributes of the source track.
Alternate Playlists Imports all of the source
track’s alternate playlists. The alternate playlists
appear in the destination track’s playlist pop-up
menu.
Regions and Media Imports all of the audio files
or regions in the source track, and places them
in the Region List.
