Re: Protools File in Logic / OMF

2010-03-17 by bloodychoir

Don't think there's a way to open PT files (non OMF exported) unless there's some 3rd party prog that does conversion outside the DAW.  What I used to have to do prior to getting a cheap Mbox and LE was find someone with a Pro Tools set up then export everything as audio files (including processed files via PT plugs if desired) and just dropping them in a Logic session.  If you consolidate in PT you should have a zero point in Logic.  If it's something you have to do a lot of I'd suggest Mbox Micro.  Annoying to have to buy proprietary hardware to use a DAW but that's Digidesign.  And having just re-read your post that's all quite useless suggestion, sorry.  Never had much fun with OMF in Logic, I'd recommend bouncing, as above, if you can find a PT mate.
