I bet that is probably why, yes. But the easy fix is to click on the "copy" selector rather than the "link" when you import your omf media. When it makes a new copy of the media, pencil restrictions no longer apply.

This is not an option for me because I work with referenced AAF only. I have to deal with too many recuts that create extreme amounts of redundant media. I thought elastic audio was a real-time process wich is why I wondered about the message.

But thanks for the tip. AE isn´t that interesting for me anyway at the moment I just wanted to try it when this message came up.
