Exporting OMF style "audio" out of Vegas...

[Rippie]

I will be editing a short movie in the upcoming month and after the
video edit is done I would like to export the audio to a separate ProTools Rig.

Ive done this many times using OMF from final cut, avid.

But does Vegas offer any way to do this?

Im interested in keeping the all the audio edit points from vegas
with 2+ seconds of handles.
Not just one long audio file (i would lose all my cross fade points and handles)

Any workarounds if its not possible?


My goal is to import possibly up to an 8 track poly file in Vegas from my 788T. Mute all tracks except the mix track but keep all iso's in sync for the protools session.

It would be a nightmare to have to line everything back up in protools after
the Slate is edited out.


Thanks for the help!

Check the "Corrado" blog in user films. Some of the latest pages deal with this issue. Spoiler alert: Not an easy fix. If you can use Final Cut or Avid, you should.

Converting OMF
AVtransfer can read almost any OMF or discreet edit project file.
One of the principal uses of AVtransfer is to read “dirty” or non-compliant
OMF project files and export clean OMF with full control over all parameters.
AVtransfer can also cross convert between versions of OMF.
Open the source OMF file in AVtransfer and then:
Export the entire project as an new OMF file with full control over
all parameters.
or
Extract portions of the OMF project, file by file or by timecode
region and export them as a new OMF - again with full control
over all parameters.
For a full explanation of all the OMF parameters that AVtransfer can set,
refer to “OMF Export Options” on page 45.
Creating OMF
AVtransfer can be used to produce OMF projects from individual audio
clips. These clips may be sourced from a pre-recorded library, audio
CD’s or from location recordings etc.
AVtransfer is compatible with location recorder files such as those generated
by the Deva disk recorder and can generate OMF projects from
these files supporting clip naming, track information and location timecode.
Open the source files as a new project in AVtransfer and then export portions
or all tracks and clips - with full control over all OMF parameters as
well as the project frame rate if this was not embedded in the recording.
Correct any pull up/down scaling errors if necessary (NTSC only). This will
help correct slow drift audio sync problems seen when long runs of location
timecode are used.

This looks really good. Any experiences with it?

I'd love to know as well.
Looks very interesting.
