Import at Absolute Position

Places imported track data at its original timecode position in your active project.

Import at Relative Position

Places imported track data relative to the start time of your active project, taking the source project start time into account. For example, if the source project starts at timecode 01:00:00:00 with an event located at 02:00:00:00, and if the active project starts at 02:00:00:00, the imported event is placed at timecode 03:00:00:00.

Import at Cursor Position

Places imported track data relative to the cursor position in your active project, taking the source project start time into account. For example, if the source project starts at timecode 01:00:00:00 with an event located at 02:00:00:00, and if the cursor in your active project is located at 02:00:00:00, the imported event is placed at timecode 03:00:00:00.

Note
  • If the original timecode position of the imported data is outside of your project range, the start/end time of your project is modified.

  • The import position options are only available if you import the AAF file to your active project.
