Importing AAF

Post by Tesionman »

Howdy folks!

Anybody have any luck importing AAF files into DP 9.51?
If I click on the AAF file, DP opens but just stays there doing nothing.
If I try to open through DP, the AAF file is greyed out. Don't know why.
cheers

PS- AAF files come from Logic Pro 10.3.3

Good luck with that. Many problems with that. Many posts about that. How I get around it, is import it in Audio Desk and then save as a DP file and open that. See if that works for you.

Changing the file extension from "AAF" to "aaf" worked.. its a weird solution but it worked. :lol:
