Clip gain issue when importing AAF in Pro Tools 10

[chefbrody]

Hi everyone!

New functions, new issues... I got one I can't resolve. When I import on Pro Tools 10.3.3 an AAF file from a Media Composer editing (version 5.5.3.5), some of the clips have -18dB clip gain when it should be 0dB... Most of the clips, let's say 75%, have the right clip gain. The other 25% don't and always have -18dB gain when I import the Media Composer tracks. I can't explain it, these clips are on the same tracks than the others... They have the same origin (MXF made from Cantar mixdown recorder).
Does anyone know this issue??

Many Thanks

Not sure of a cause/fix for this specific problem.

But, of the 25% that are wrong, how many should be 0?
If it's most, just reimport without clip gain, keeping what you have that is correct/delete the dupes without.

No?

Yes of course I can do that but I wanted to know if anyone already got this problem and if it was a known issue. Apparently not.

Thanks!

When you say "the right clip gain" are you talking about "the same clip gain as in the the MC" or what is the "right" clip gain in your case?

Yes, what I mean is that I should have "the same clip gain as in the the MC"; but instead I got -18dB clip gain on many clips. For example, as I work on a long feature movie, in a 20 minutes reel, at least 60 clips on 250 don't get the good clip gain. I don't know why.
