Opening an Avid Sequence with 
Pro Tools Connected to Unity but 
Not Streaming
This section describes how to open a sequence 
with the following configuration:
• Media Station|PT will open the sequence from 
a Unity system.
• Pro Tools is connected to the Unity system 
but cannot play the media directly from 
Unity.
This workflow involves the following steps:
1  
Open the sequence in Media Station|PT di-
rectly from the Unity workspace.
2  
Create an AAF export from Media Station|PT, 
linking to existing audio files.
3  
Open the AAF sequence in Pro Tools, copying 
the audio files to the local audio storage. 
To open an Avid sequence by copying audio from 
shared workspaces:
1  
Launch Media Station|PT, and open the 
project containing the bin and sequence you 
wish to open.

Open the bin containing the sequence you are 
working with.

Drag the sequence into the Record Monitor to 
place it in the Timeline.
