Chapter 9: Importing and Exporting Session Data 119
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 80 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 Audio Regions List.
Volume Automation and Setting Imports the
source track’s Volume Fader setting and any au-
tomation data on the track’s Volume Automa-
tion playlist. The Volume Fader setting and any
Volume automation data in the destination
track are replaced.
Pan Automation and Setting Imports the source
track’s Pan Slider settings and any automation
data on the track’s Pan Automation playlist. The
Pan Slider setting and any Pan automation data
in the destination track are replaced.
Mute Automation and Setting Imports the source
track’s Mute setting and any automation data
on the track’s Mute Automation playlist. The
Mute setting and any Mute automation data in
the destination track are replaced.
Main Output Assignments Imports the source
track’s channel output assignments, including
any multiple output assignments. The channel
output assignments in the destination track are
replaced.
Send Output Assignments Imports the source
track’s send output assignments. Any Send out-
put assignments in the destination track are re-
placed.
Plug-In Assignments Imports the source track’s
plug-in assignments. Any plug-ins in the desti-
nation track are removed, and their associated
settings and automation are lost.
If the source track uses a plug-in that is not
available on the destination system, it appears
in the destination track and is made inactive.
Plug-In Settings and Automation When the
source track’s plug-in assignments are imported,
this option imports the track’s plug-in settings
and any automation data associated with the
plug-ins. If no plug-in assignments are im-
ported, this option has no effect.
