Import and Export Options
Advanced Import Session
Data Options
Pro Tools 9.0 provides advanced Import Session
Data options that were previously only available
with Pro Tools HD, Pro Tools LE with DV Tool-
kit 2, or Pro Tools LE with Complete Production
Toolkit.
The Import Session Data dialog lets you view the
properties of a session, select which tracks to im-
port, and choose which attributes of those tracks
you want to import into the current session.
Importing and Exporting AAF
and OMF Sequences
Pro Tools 9.0 lets you import and export AAF
and OMF sequences. Lower versions of
Pro Tools require the DigiTranslator 2.0 option
to be able to import and export AAF and OMF
sequences. All DigiTranslator 2.0 functionality
is now included with Pro Tools 9.0.
Improved AAF Import Capabilities
Pro Tools 9.0 offers expanded functionality
when importing AAF sequences and audio
tracks.
Importing Stereo AAF Audio Tracks
Pro Tools 9.0 lets you import stereo tracks from
AAF sequences to new or existing stereo audio
tracks in Pro Tools. Lower versions of Pro Tools
could only import only mono tracks from AAF
sequences.
For more information on Import Session
Data, see the Pro Tools Reference Guide.
For more information about importing and
exporting AAF and OMF sequences, and
MXF files, to and from Pro Tools, see the
Pro Tools Reference Guide.
For more information on importing AAF au-
dio tracks and sequences into Pro Tools, see
the Pro Tools Reference Guide.
When importing stereo AAF audio tracks
into Pro Tools, the “Pan Odd Tracks
Left/Even Tracks Right” setting in the Im-
port Session Data window is greyed out and
unavailable.
