Chapter 12: Importing and Exporting Session Data 227
Importing AAF and OMF
Sequences
(DigiTranslator 2.0 Required)
You can import AAF and OMF sequences from
browsers by doing the following.
To import sequences into an existing track:
1
Select an AAF or OMF sequence in a browser.
2
Drag the item at the desired location in the
current session. The file is imported and placed
where it was dropped. If the sequence contains
video the video track will also be imported.
Importing Sessions and Tracks
Session files can be dragged into the current ses-
sion to import (and spot) audio, video, MIDI, re-
gion group, REX and ACID files, tracks, and ses-
sion data.
• Dragging a session to the Region List imports
all the regions from that session (without im-
porting tracks).
• Dragging a session to a track in Pro Tools LE
lets you import tracks.
• Dragging a session to a track playlist in
Pro Tools HD opens the Import Session Data
dialog, letting you select tracks and attributes
to import. The imported session data will be-
gin wherever you drop the session in the
Timeline.
To import tracks and other session data by drag
and drop:
1
Open a browser.
2
Drag a Pro Tools session file, or an AAF or OMF
sequence (requires DigiTranslator 2.0), into the
current session, as follows:
• Drag onto an existing track to overlay or
overwrite data on the target tracks. Hold
the Shift key while dragging if you intend
to replace the current track playlists with
those being imported (the Shift key pre-
configures the settings in the Import Ses-
sion Data dialog).
• Drag onto an empty (non-track) space in
the Edit window Timeline to create new
tracks for the imported session data.
• Configure the Import Session Data dialog
as appropriate. (See the Pro Tools Reference
Guid e for details on the Import Session
Data dialog.)
File Conversion on Import
By default, files added to the session by drag and
drop reference the original media, unless they
do not reside on a valid Performance volume, or
unless any of the following are true:
• Sample Rate does not match.
• Bit Depth does not match.
• The file is compressed.
• The file is multichannel interleaved.
• The file is WAV format, but the Pro Tools Pref-
erence to Convert all imported.WAV files to
AES31/Broadcast Wave is enabled.
Sample Rate Conversion quality follows the
Pro Tools Preference setting.
