Export an OMF file for Pro Tools
Features supported in OMF files
Tips for importing OMF files into Pro Tools
You can export all the active audio tracks from an entire sequence in Premiere Pro to an Open Media Format (OMF) file. DigiDesign Pro Tools
imports OMF files, when the DigiTranslator feature is licensed. With DigiTranslator in Pro Tools, you can sweeten soundtracks from Premiere Pro.
Note: The OMF files exported by Premiere Pro are not officially supported for platforms other than ProTools. Premiere Pro does not import OMF
files.
Export an OMF file for Pro Tools
1. In a Timeline panel, select a sequence.
2. Select File > Export > OMF.
3. In the OMF Export Settings dialog box, type a title for the OMF file into the OMF Title field.
4. From the Sample Rate and Bits Per Sample menus, choose the settings needed for your sequence.
5. From the Files menu, choose one of the following:
Encapsulate With this setting, Premiere Pro exports an OMF file containing the project metadata and all the audio for the selected
sequence. Encapsulated OMF files typically are large.
Separate Audio With this setting, Premiere Pro exports individual mono AIF files into an _omfiMediaFiles folder. The folder name contains
the OMF filename. Using AIF files assures maximum compatibility with legacy audio systems.
6. From the Render menu, choose one of the following:
Copy Complete Audio Files With this setting, Premiere Pro exports audio for the entirety of each clip used in the sequence, no matter how
many times the clip is used nor how many parts of the clip are used.
Trim Audio Files With this setting, Premiere Pro exports only the portions of each clip that are used in the sequence: the clip instances.
You can choose to export each clip instance with extra length, handles, added to the start and end of the file.
7. In the Handle Frames field, specify the length of the handles, in video frames. This amount of time is added to the start and end of the
exported files when you choose Consolidate Media. The default setting is one second, in frames, at the sequence frame rate. If the length of
the handles you specify exceeds the length of the clip instance, Premiere Pro exports the whole clip instance.
8. Launch Pro Tools, and import the OMF file. For more information on importing files into Pro Tools, see Pro Tools Help.
Features supported in OMF files
On export to OMF, Premiere Pro exports files with the following attributes and metadata:
Note: Premiere Pro applies only the effects listed, on export to OMF. Also, since OMF values are clip-based, Premiere Pro does not export most
track-based values to OMF.
Sample accurate exports Premiere Pro places all transitions and keyframe points on audio sample boundaries. Video frame boundaries do not
constrain these locations.
48k and 96k sample rates Premiere Pro converts sound clips to the same consistent sample rate, as required by Pro Tools. You can select the
sample rate at the time of export.
16-bit and 24-bit depth You can choose the bit-depth at the time of export.
Encapsulate and Separate Audio options With the Encapsulate option, you can export a single, large, OMF file containing both audio and OMF
metadata. With the Separate Audio option, you can export a smaller OMF file and a set of related, individual, external audio files. The Separate
Audio option is useful for larger projects, as an OMF file cannot exceed two gigabytes.
Track names OMF and Pro Tools work with mono tracks only. Premiere Pro exports each channel from a stereo, 5.1-channel or 16-channel track
into its own mono track with its source track ID appended to its track name. Premiere Pro exports Left and Right stereo channels with _L and _R in
their respective track names.
Clip names After you import an OMF file into Pro Tools, the clip names from the Premiere Pro sequence appear in the Pro Tools timeline.
Clip volume and clip keyframe volume By default, Premiere Pro exports clip volume levels and clip keyframe volume levels to the Clip Gain
effect in the OMF file. You can set DigiTranslator to accept or ignore keyframe volume settings.
Audio Transitions Premiere Pro exports audio transitions between two adjoining clips, both centered or not centered, as you specify.
Audio Mixer pan settings One pan setting is exported per clip without keyframes. Premiere Pro extracts the pan setting from the track and
applies it to the clip export data.
Stereo tracks By default, Premiere Pro hard pans the Left channel to the left and the Right channel to the right on export to OMF.
