Importing "wrapped" AAF file in Logic

Hi,
I have a "wrapped" AAF file that I'm attempting to import into Logic, but it's not working. I've successfully opened OMF files and regular "unwrapped" AAF files before, where you have the separate AAF file and the separate folder of audio files, but in this case, I was given an AAF where it's wrapped into one file. Another person who is working on this project says it opens fine in ProTools, however when I import it into Logic, it makes a ton of tracks in the Logic project (far more than I think the AAF actually contains) but no audio is imported. Any ideas? Thanks.
Logic 9.1.4, OS 10.6.6

thanks for solving the A.O. insts problem. But the other problem was with a Giga convert of a Sample from Bela Media sample CD called" DIVA EXtended" sample Straight tone & delayed. In logic samples folder the giga file is uncompressed from a RAR and it worked for 2 samples smaller in size than this one which is 250 mb in size and is the very one I need. Basically when Logic converts the sample it creates a {bk} folder for the samples to go into. With this one the folder is there while it is converting but when it finishes the folder dissapears and the sample remains unconverted. Can you shed any light on this problem. I have spent hours with BelaMedias support team by internet and they cant find a solution except to say why am I using Logic anyway!!!!! thanks Mat.

Does anybody know if there is a way to import 2 movie files in logic....

Does anybody know if there is a way to import 2 movie files in logic....I am getting 2 files in an hour and i need to figure out how 2 combine 2 mov. files into logic to put them together in dvd...i am doing a score.....thanx

As far as I am aware no the only work around is that you create 2 quick time movies import them into one session of imovie then export as a quick time file which yu would then import into Logic hope this helps

I am getting an unsupported format error when trying to import the.aaf file.

When I select File > Import > File, and then select my .aaf file, nothing happens.
When I select File > Import > Pro After Effects and then select my .aaf file, it imports the files, then I get an unsupported format error for .mov files.
Help!

Kbuggle,
Which video in the tutorial does this step apply to (i.e. importing the AAF file)? Are you importing from the sample files that accompany the tutorial? Finally, can you post a screen shot of the error message you're getting?
Also, please confirm which version of After Effects you're running, as well as the operating system.
Thanks!
Stefan

Importing AAF files into Logic Pro 7.1

Hello All:
Have got a number of song sequences that are in the AAF format, complete with associated audio .aif sound files in the same folder.
These AAF files were created on another Logic pro studio, as they had to export them from Pro Tools into AAF .
i am able to IMPORT the sequence arrange with requisite tracks set up, but when the audio files attempt to load, i am prompted by the finder to MANUALLY locate each audio file to enable it to place into the Logic arrange page correctly.
I get the "where is the file"xxxxxB4Wrww.aif" type message, and can see the actual file located in the finder window, but it won't just locate them automatically.
It takes a loooong time to search out in the list each file and then click DONE to enter it!
Then repeat for EACH file name.....jeez.
One song has 78 audio files associated with it!
A local tech guy in a MAC software dealership said this was a continuing problem he had also with AAF in Logic 7.....
Any hints, before i spend 4 mind numbing hours hand-locating
these frikkin files?
Thank you in advance!

Hi All,
I've recently been having problems importing MP3 files into the arrange window. I thought I changed a setting and can't figure out what's up? Also I haven't been able to change my sampling rate to 48K or more. Mind you, I'm in transition right now moving to a different continent and my external drive is stored away so I'm playing and importing from my OS drive.Is that the issue??
Thanks,
Francisco
Hi Francisco.
Please re-post this as a NEW question. I just went over my last few posts, and here you are, and NO ONE has answered your question in three days. That is not usually the case in this forum.
Cheers
PS please give some details, what actually happens with the mp3 files? what is the actual problem? And also, what sound card / interface are you using?

Imported 1h 20m file into Logic Pro 7.1.1.it Became Unstable

Imported an hour and twenty minute file into logic, and it became really unstable. i tried to cut the region up, and save the clips as differnt files, but it wouldn't let me stopped playing the file after a certain bar (bar 57).
is this normal behavior?

Try trashing Logic prefs. (Or move to desktop to re-import keycommands)

Unsupported format or damaged file? Importing Avid AAF files into PPro 4.1

I have been trying all day to import Avid aaf into Premiere Pro 4.1.0. I went to Avid and Adobe forums and sites and thought I had it figured out by following the video tutorial on Adobe TV - "Open Workflows Between Avid and Adobe CS4" His Avid was running on a Mac on the tutorial. I believe I followed it exactly but I get an "Unsupported Format or Damaged File" message. I run ver.4.1.0 on a WINDOWS XP machine.
sSD 720x486 drop frame - no HD. I am new to Adobe and Pro but I am loving After Effects and would love to transfer some of my old Avid footage over. Here is what I have been doing:
In Avid
I Select sequence on timeline
File
Export As
Save In: Desktop
I Create an .aaf file name
Export Setting: Link Audio and Video
Options - Export As: AAF
Export Method: Link to (Don't Export) Media - including all Video and Audio Tracks
Save then Save
In Premiere I double click in project bin
Import - .aaf file from desktop - The project and files come up - The Audio plays fine but in program monitor a red box has " Media Offline"
Status: Offline Importer Can't Open
On the new project file I right click - Link Media - Find my Avid media on my EXTERNAL Avid media drive
Avid Media - Avid Media Files - MXF - 1- Find file by "Display Only Exact Name Matches" -
Click on the correct .MXF file to link to then - Select - and get the "Unsupported Format or Damaged File" message.
This is my first post and I usually can figure things out but I am stumped. If anyone has had this come up or has any input for me I would be deeply appreciative. Thank you in advance.

For what its worth. I shot some DV 720x480 in 4:3 and 16:9 with my little DV camera and imported footage into my Avid MC. I repeated my earlier - posted steps and when I created and opened up the project in Ppro, this time not only did the sequence and files open up but my footage was on the timeline and I was able to play it without having to link to my Avid Media files!
When I tried before, all my footage was originated on BetaSP and DigiBeta at NTSC 720x486. Cannot Ppro bring in NTSC 720x486 or does it have to be NTSC DV 720x480
As I mentioned before I am a newbie to Ppro. When I created a new project and brought my 16:9 footage in, the source monitor is 16:9 but my sequence is in 4:3. In the Program Monitor I can click and hold the frame and move the 16:9 around within the 4:3 frame. Why is it not letting me see the full 16:9 frame. I created the project in 16:9. Any suggestions? Thanks

Can't import FCPX xml file to Logic Pro

I'm using the trial of Final Cut Pro X to give it a go.
I export a test project as XML so I could try to import it into Logic Pro (latest version). Export seems to work fine. When I go to Logic to import the test.fcpxml file, it is grayed out and won't let me select it.
Not sure if this is a FC problem, or if Apple needs to release an update for Logic to be compatible with FCPX.
Any insight?
MacBook Pro, Lion 10.7, 4GB Ram, Intel Core 2 Duo, Logic Studio

This is a completely new form of XML. Very little works with it at this time.

Help Need-All of a sudden can't import/open .OMF file without Logic quit

Hi all. Been a looong time since I posted but I'm back with a serious dilemma. I'm working on a short film with a deadline that's coming at me fast and furious. I just picked up an updated version of the .omf file and all of a sudden it won't load without logic quitting on me. What's going on? My Logic beahavior has seemed a little off but not noticibly disfunctional lately. do I need to toss my prefs? How do I do this if so? I'm always worried I'll delete something I can't recover...
I think that's about it. Let me know if I need to clarify the situation. This all worked fine a couple weeks ago. I'm using the powerbook 15" template video for NTSC. I'm clueless now and really need help. THANKS!

Nobody has any idea why this might be happening? Can anybody at least cue me in on how I should go about dumping my LP7 prefs and then replacing them or updating them again?
thanks!

No sound when i import garage banmd files into logic express 7.1

i have garage band 3.0.4 and logic express 7.1. i just acquired both of these recently and have been trying to transfer my old garage band 2 files into LE. i have no problems putting my songs into garage band 3 but when i open them in logic theres no sound output. everything appears to be working, all the meters light up except the output master all the way at the end of the mix window. i dont get it. some of my GB2 files opened in LE with no problems but others, made with gb3 or exported from gb2 to gb3, wont work. i messed with the preferences, the sound is set to core audio but im still perplexed. anyone else had this problem? help!

thanks, ill give it a try. ive noticed that i dont have any problems when i open my GB2 files directly into LE. its only when i go through GB3. its really a drag, because i just updated and it seems theres no going back. pretty disappointing if you ask me. i updated to GB3 because of its much hyped "resolutions" of old problems, and here i am stuck with new problems. bah! thanks for the help anyway. if anyone knows of an easier/more efficient way to deal with this issue, let me know! thanks again.

Importing AAF Files

Has Anyone tried importing an AAF project into Logic? I don't understand why Pro Tools and DP import all the audio and regions onto the tracks and Logic doesn't.

Hi, did you ever solve this please? I'm having the exact same problem.

Importing an AAF into Premiere Pro

Hello. I am trying to learn the AAF workflow so that I can share my feature film edit with a sound mixer. I begin with an edit in Premier Pro CC and export the AAF file. All the media seems to export fine. I then re-import the AAF file into Premiere to test it and make sure it works. The media comes in fine, but I can't figure out how to load it in a timeline so that the sound files are synced with timing. There is no sequence to open in the AAF folder. Can someone point me to a tutorial that takes you through the process of properly importing and loading an AAF? Thanks much for the help.

To elaborate on Andrew's post: Premiere will always assume all footages have the same specs as the project settings. For DV/ HDV projects this means it will think they are interlaced with lower fields. if you didn't render them with these settings, you will have to tell this Premiere by manually setting the footage interpretation just as you would in AE. Also check your viewer settings. Maybe they are just set to draft quality or auto-adjust themselves because you scaled them oddly and thus the clips are presented at crooked scaling rates. Another potential cause for this could be a problem with your graphics card, so if you cannot resolve the matter by the other methods, disable hardware accelerated playback in the viewer's options (the little arrow in the top right corner).

Opening TL files in Logic 8

Has anyone had issues importing Tascam TL files into Logic 8? I have had no luck following the manual's instructions.

Well if you leave the automated Busses as they are but assign them to Auxes (select the Bus as an Input for the Aux in the second slot above the channelfader - before that turn Bus output to "no output" other wise the signal doubles) you can use the sends on the Auxes in combination with the automated Busses.
Was I clear enough?

Link Multiple AAF files (used to work in cs6)

Hi,
On importing multiple AAF files it used to be possible to link all aaf files at once...
Now the import function only links "one original files folder" a time.
This means I have to locate every AAF (with different original files folder) manually
All files to be re linked are in the same folder...
Am I overlooking something.
I would like to downgrade to cc 6.? but i can't find a download link?
Thank you
Regards
Hans

I'm not sure I understand. Did you move the files from their original locations into a single folder? Are you trying to relink files that have already been imported into a project? Or are you trying to import files for the first time?
Here's the download link for CS6: Download CS6 products
Cheers,
Jeff
