Chapter 4: Avid Unity ISIS Workflows for Pro Tools 65
13 Do one of the following:
• If you are using the Avid application on the
same computer as Pro Tools and are ready
to use it to import the files you just ex-
ported from the Avid application, exit
Pro Tools.
• If you were unable to save the audio por-
tion of the AAF sequence directly to storage
that is accessible from the Avid application,
copy the audio files from their saved loca-
tion to the OMFI MediaFiles folder (for
AIFF or WAV media) or Avid MediaFiles
folder (for MXF media) on a drive con-
nected to your Avid system.
Exporting Audio Files Using
Bounce to Disk
Use the Bounce to Disk command to create pre-
mixed files of the current Pro Tools session. This
does not export all of the individual files on the
Timeline, but it does guarantee that the mix you
hear in the Avid application will be identical to
the mix you hear in Pro Tools, including all pan-
ning, effects and automation.
To export audio files using Bounce to Disk:
1 In Pro Tools, finalize the mix.
2 Select the time range of the session that you
want to export. (All audible tracks in that time
range will be included in the bounce, whether
they are selected or not.)
3 Choose File > Bounce to > Disk.
4 Select the Enforce Avid Compatibility option.
Enforce Avid Compatibility creates frame-accu-
rate edits, wraps the files as OMFI (unless you
choose MXF), and limits the sample rate options
to 44.1 or 48 kHz. Dithering without noise shap-
ing will be applied to files being bounced from
24-bit to 16-bit.
5 Choose a file type from the File Type pop-up
menu.
6 Click Bounce.
7 In the Publishing Options dialog, type the
Pro Tools Comment and Clip Name.
If you selected more than one region for export,
the Clip Name field will not be available and the
names of the regions will be used for the ex-
ported files.
8 Choose the Target Project Time Code Format.
