Why you'll love it.
Smart renaming and instrument recognition
Powered by our own AI-R technology, Import eliminates track naming chaos, giving you clear, structured track and clip names automatically. Import recognizes instruments at a glance, without even listening to them and processes hundreds* of tracks in one click. Boom.
*Please note that Pro Tools Intro only allows for a maximum of eight tracks. But it still works! After all the 8-track is what the Beatles used back in 1966. And it worked out pretty OK for them.
Auto color coding.
Import does the color coding for you, based on your preferences. No more manual organization—everything’s instantly color-coded to match your style. Make your sessions more organized and your workflow faster.
Auto strip silence.
Silence where you don’t need it? Gone. Import automatically strips unwanted silence withing the DAW during import, with adjustable thresholds, duration, and padding to keep what matters. Prefer to strip silence after import? No problem, Import has you covered. Just do it from your top bar.
Auto routing.
Routing? Handled. Import automatically applies your preferences, assigning buses, aux tracks, and groups in seconds—then neatly organizes everything into routing folders. It works flawlessly across every session, seamlessly integrating with your custom mixing templates.
Stereo to mono.
Fake stereo or hard-panned tracks? Automatically corrected. Import detects and converts stereo files that should be mono upon import, so you won’t need to manually split or reroute them later.
Quick audio file preview.
Preview audio files directly within Import, with instant waveforms to verify content before bringing it into your DAW.
Intuitive instrument categorization.
Create instrument categories like drums, guitars, or vocals—or customize categories to match your workflow and naming conventions—and quickly sort tracks into their respective groups. Maintain consistency across multiple mixing projects.
Presets to go.
Save your own, and share them effortlessly with your collaborators.
