FCP export to Protools

[cpierson]

What are my options for exporting multi tract audio in a final cut project (v5.0) for post in protools?

OMF, but you would need Digitranslator option in Protools.

I highlight the tracks in FCP and export aiff files. Inport them into PT into a session with the same sample rate. Bounce the files afterward and take back to FCP. Using internal sync on both systems, stays in sync.

Hello. Automatic Duck also has a product call Pro Export FCP that can do the job. The one thing that will work always no matter what is what BRH mentions. OMF's and Automatic Duck can sometimes have some issues. Good luck.

True. But also clear benefits, namely handles. Most editors don't know how to cut with audio in mind. You'll have far more frustrating situations without the OMF than with it.
