** = Fades become rendered clips. So no information to pass to another Daw |

Note: AATranslator supports both Clip & Timeline based automation, as do most DAW’s Eg Reaper & Nuendo. OMF is clip based, PT timeline based. If converting OMF to PT either (but not both) types can be used by either Digi-translator or AATranslator.
After much testing we believe the above is true, if you have information to the contrary, please let us know.
