Technical Specs
Preparing an OMF
Requirements!
Please send an OMFI v2 export or AAF only.
Please remove all video from your sequence.
Please provide audio handles of at least 30 frames.
Audio should be EMBEDDED (unless we've discussed other options)
Gotchas!
All audio files in your Non-Linear Editor should be of the same
sample rate. If they are not, please convert them to the same sample rate
prior to the AAF or OMFI v2 export process.
All audio files in your Non-Linear Editor should be of the same bit-depth.
If they are not, please convert them to the same bit-depth prior to the
AAF or OMFI v2 export. We can work with 16-bit and 24-bit audio files.
Audio mixdown effects (audio suite) eliminate handles, so avoid when possible.
If the audio media files you will be sending total more than 2GB in
size, you will need to split the sequence into two or more AAFs or OMFs.
You can either break the project up into smaller acts, or export a fewer
number of channels at once. e.g, Channels 1-8 in the first AAF or OMF and
9-16 in the second.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.
