Re: Can you move Pro Tools sessions to another drive in bulk?
Some of my team has to do this every session/episode. Although I hate this workaround and avoid it like the plague...you can go into "workspace" and relink/copy the offline files that are not in the session Audio folder. I find it tedious as crap and it may be simpler and use less time to just "save copy in"...perhaps "workspace" is just another option for what you think are only a few missing files. FWIW I drag and drop sessions to another drive all the time...as suggested always verify the copied session...it is faster if you don't need the copy or relink option.

Re: Can you move Pro Tools sessions to another drive in bulk?
The import bug I was running into was that sometimes when importing a file, sometimes the file would never become "playable." It would just import, never draw the waveform and never playback. I can't remember if it gave any error messages or codes. However I did figure out that if I unchecked the box to copy files on import I no longer had this issue. Because of that issue, I'm now in a position where I'm not positive about the location of my audio files.
Seems like I'm going to start doing this manually... Thanks for the help everyone!

Re: Can you move Pro Tools sessions to another drive in bulk?
My "cover my ASSets" routine is now that I copy/move files INTO the session folder and then import from there.

Avid needs to upgrade their file management system and have the default be that all files associated with a given session are in THAT sessions folder.
