Exporting Audio from 
Pro Tools for Media Station PT

In Pro Tools, you can export audio tracks for use 
in Media Station|PT using any of the following 
methods:

• Exporting selected tracks as an AAF se-

quence

• Bouncing to disk

• Exporting edited audio tracks to Interplay 

from Pro Tools (Avid Interplay system re-
quired)

For other export methods, see the Pro Tools Ref-
erence Guide.

Exporting Tracks as AAF 
Sequences

Use Export Selected Tracks as OMF/AAF to ex-
port individual tracks or an entire Pro Tools ses-
sion in AAF format.

To export selected audio tracks from Pro Tools as 
an AAF sequence:

1  

In Pro Tools, select the tracks you want to ex-

port in the Pro Tools session by Shift-clicking 
the names of each track.

2  

Choose File > Export > Selected Tracks as 

OMF/AAF.

3  

Under OMF/AAF Options, choose AAF from 

the Export As pop-up menu.

4  

Select Enforce Avid Compatibility.

Enforce Avid Compatibility creates frame-accu-
rate edits, wraps the files as OMFI (unless you 
choose MXF), and limits the sample rate options 
to 44.1 or 48 kHz. Dithering without noise shap-
ing will be applied to files being exported from 
24-bit to 16-bit.

5  

Ensure that the Target Project Time Code For-

mat pop-up menu displays the correct frame 
rate for the Media Station|PT project. 

6  

Click OK.
