Play Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Hi. I have a great opportunity and am doing a spec remix for a large dance music label for the possibility of getting signed. All I have ever used is Logic and Ableton. I received the parts to remix and what they sent was a ProTools session folder. Within the folder is an Audio Files folder and Fade Files Folder as well as the session file. There are 2 versions of each audio file, each with the extension .L or .R. I can drag these to Logic and listen to them but the .L files and the .R files SEEM to be identical and not in mono. I can see some read more energy on one side in the Logic channels, and also that files counterpart reads the same. Because of this, I am under the impression that I only need to work with one of each of these L/R audio file pairs.... Am I right? Before I moved forward I thought I would ask for some experienced advice on this matter. Is there any form of conversion I should do beforehand or any other recommendations anyone may have. Hoping someone is experienced with this... I just want to start off on the right foot. Thanks for your time & Happy Holidays! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Jackson Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 I'm not sure if this is going to help you but here's a thread about using Pro Tools projects in Logic. Hope it helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetT00th Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 i have had the same situation with remixes from pt sessions. I think the way it works is, you drag one of the split stereo files in to the arrange window and it automatically imports them as a stereo file if the .L and .R file are in the same folder. probably makes sense to try it with the .L file first.

Play Posted December 11, 2010 Author Share Posted December 11, 2010 Thanks for the responses... sweeTOOth, this is the way it seems to behave. I will remove an R file from the folder and see what happens when I load the L as a test Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Play Posted December 11, 2010 Author Share Posted December 11, 2010 sweeTOOth you were right... I removed the R file from the folder and dragged the L to Logic and tells me that the R file is not found... Now i can move forward easily and comfortably Thank you!
