  • OMF files from FCP 4.5

    Hello,

    I just ran into a problem with an OMF file that was exported from FCP 4.5 and now it will not re-import. I realize that normally the whole purpose of exporting an OMF from FCP is to bring it into AVID or Pro Tools but I am just amazed that FCP would export a file and then not be able to re-import it.

    Does anyone know anything about this?

    FCP cannot import OMFs. The whole point is to export the OMF to ProTools and they either supply you with a stereo mixed .aiff file, or they layback the final mix to the onlined master.
