Importing an AAF Sequence into 
an Existing Session
You can import an AAF sequence containing au-
dio and video into an existing Pro Tools session. 
To open and import audio and/or video tracks from 
an AAF sequence:
1  
Open an existing Pro Tools session.
2  
Choose File > Import > Session Data, and 
choose the AAF sequence that you wish to im-
port.
3  
From the Audio Media Options pop-up menu, 
choose how you want to import audio files into 
Pro Tools:
• If the audio files reside on a volume from 
which Pro Tools can play back audio, select 
Link to Source Media (Where Possible).
• If the audio files reside on a volume from 
which Pro Tools cannot play back audio, 
select Copy from Source Media to copy all 
audio to the Pro Tools audio storage or 
Consolidate from Source Media to copy 
only the audio used in the session to the 
Pro Tools audio storage.

From the Video Media Options pop-up menu, 
choose how you want to import video files into 
Pro Tools:
• If the video files reside on a volume from 
which Pro Tools can play back video, select 
Link to Source Media.
• If the video files reside on a volume from 
which Pro Tools cannot play back video, se-
lect Copy from Source Media to copy all 
video to the Pro Tools video storage.

In the Import Session Data dialog, deselect 
any source tracks that you do not want to be im-
ported. (If you are importing Session Data from 
AAF sequences, all tracks are selected by default. 
If you are importing tracks from a Pro Tools ses-
sion, no tracks are selected by default.)
Any video imported into Pro Tools must be 
the same frame rate as video already placed 
in the Timeline. 
Pro Tools cannot play video that is embed-
ded in an AAF sequence, but it can read the 
video editing metadata when imported into 
a satellite track. Do not use this option if 
you want to import the video itself into 
Pro Tools. (See “Opening an AAF Sequence 
for Playback on a Video Satellite System” 
on page 110.) 
You can also open an AAF sequence by 
dragging it from any location on your com-
puter or the DigiBase browser to the 
Pro Tools Timeline.
