Importing Session data from files

Using the Import Session Data command: File -> Import -> Session Data, this lets you import video from another Pro Tools session, or from and AAF or OMF file, but not individual video files. AAF files are creatd by Avid, whilst OMF files are created by Final Cut Pro.

In Audio Media options: select 'Copy from source media'

In the time code mapping options: select 'Maintain absolute time code values'

In the sample rate conversion option: source sample rate to 48kHZ and conversion quality set to 'TweakHead'



When the tracks that are in the file come up, you can choose the destination where you want those tracks to go. Most likely you will want to select the 'New Track' option, unless you have made some tracks in the program already.

On the Track data to import pop-up, click 'All', then import.
