More About Conforming ADL Files
DaVinci Resolve supports the AES31 Audio Decision List (.adl) format for import. ADL is a timeline interchange format created by the Audio Engineering Society. It’s designed to be application and platform agnostic, allowing you to pass your timeline and its media assets between digital audio workstations.
As of this writing DaVinici Resolve does not export ADL files.
Importing ADL Project Files
This section covers the import of ADL files using one simple procedure.
The AES31 Audio Decision List (.adl) import progress dialog
1 Do one of the following:
— From any page, choose File > Import Timeline (Shift-Command-I).
— Open the Edit page, right-click anywhere in the Media Pool, and choose Timelines > Import > AAF/EDL/XML/DRT/ADL/OTIO.
2 Using the file system dialog that appears, find the .adl project file you want to import, select the file and press the Open button.
3 DaVinci Resolve will import the timeline, and proceed to import all the associated .wav files with the ADL. An Import AES31 File dialog box will show you the progress of the import.
Unlike any of the other Timeline Import formats, there are no additional controls for importing an ADL file. The timeline and associated media are imported directly to the open bin in the Media Pool.
