Import Execution

After configuring all options, click Import (or Organize for template-based workflows). A progress dialog shows each step in real-time.

AAF import steps

AAF imports run 5 steps:

1. Preparing tracks: creates matching tracks in Pro Tools for each incoming track
2. Importing: imports the AAF session data with all configured options (media, timecode mapping, offsets)
3. Combining stereo: merges L/R mono pairs into stereo tracks, if enabled for any category
4. Applying movements: moves clips to their target tracks based on all the reorganization you did in the Visualizer
5. Coloring tracks: applies category colors and naming conventions to tracks in Pro Tools

1. Applying movements: moves clips to target tracks
2. Combining stereo: merges mono pairs (if enabled)
3. Matching template: duplicates template tracks and routes clips to the copies
4. Coloring tracks: applies colors and naming conventions
