Hi William,
You should never use AMA to import material to Avid!
If you do, you have a graphic/video-level source editor in the bin.
Since Avid works in video levels internally, you need to set the monitor options in Resolve to normal and export MXF directly to the AvidMediaFiles/MXF/1,2,3 etc – folder.
The white and black levels will match up perfectly between 16-235.
Do NOT apply a broadcast safe, as it does not remap but clip your levels and chroma.
