Importing an AAF or OMF
Sequence as a Pro Tools Session
The easiest way of using Pro Tools to edit a se-
quence exported from an Avid application is to
open it as a new session.
To open an AAF (or OMF) sequence as a Pro Tools
session:
1 Launch Pro Tools.
2 Choose File > Open Session.
3 In the Open Session dialog, navigate to the
AAF or OMF sequence you want to import.
4 Click Open.
5 Select the I/O Settings to use for the session.
Several pre-configured I/O Settings are included
with your system, or you can select a custom I/O
Setting that you have created.
6 Click OK.
7 Name the session and click Save.
The Import Session Data dialog appears.

Pro Tools lets you open and import OMF or
AAF sequences that reference audio files
with mixed sample rates and/or bit depths.
Audio files will be converted to the highest
sample rate and bit depth of the files being
imported (for new sessions) or to the current
sample rate and/or bit depth (for existing
sessions).
