Premiere with Pro Tools?

[Blast1]

After you get through processing the audio in protools why don’t you import it into premiere?

I’m wondering if I need DV Toolkit. It’s really expensive, so if I can avoid getting it, I will. I’m used to an older Pro Tools MBox system on a Mac, working with Final Cut Pro. I want to make sure I’m getting the right thing. I know that Audition is the Adobe sound program with Premiere, but I’d like to use Pro Tools, as I know it a lot better, and like it a lot better. I’m still learning all this stuff, so I need some guidance.
Thank you!

cybele,

I love ProTools and used it extensively, but I find myself using Audition with Premiere Pro instead. The integration between the two programs, if you have Dynamic Link, is far better than the import/export “dance” you will have to go through with ProTools and Premiere Pro.

I didn’t feel like I had much of a learning curve either. If you know how to use ProTools, Audition should be fairly easy to pick up and start using. ProTools is still my favorite DAW, but I just haven’t found a reason for me to use it instead of Audition when it comes to my Premiere Pro projects.

Hi…

If you are looking for the traditional mix to picutre functions of Pro Tools from an editorial project you started in Premiere….

A customer of mine has used the followng workflow:

1) Export Premiere as AAF
2) Open the AAF in a copy of Avid Xpress
3) Export OMF
4) Bring OMF into Pro tools

That seemed to work. The Adobe AAF is not compatible with Pro Tools Directly.

Is there a workflow going the other way? I am unfamiliar with pro tools but we will be recording and mixing a live performance in pro tools and recording on 5DMK3’s and will be syncing & editing all of it in Premiere Pro CS6. Does Premiere accept OMF files? What workflow hiccups should I be anticipating?
