OMF file will export, but will not open

Hello

I need to export a sequence to an omf file. When I export to omf, it looks like it's exporting normally, but when I try to open the file, it will not open. Oh, and the icon after export is gray with no logo. Am I missing something?

Please help.

Thanks,
Anneita

The OMF file must be imported into an application
that can read OMF files.


Such as Logic Pro, Protools, Digital Performer, etc.,
i.e. a multitrack audio editor that specifically
supports OMF, (e.g. Protools LE won't, unless you
have the DV Toolkit installed). What/who were you
making the OMF for?


Thank you.

The video's audio consisted of voices only. I needed to export it to an omf file for an audio house. They were to sweeten up the voices to accompany a live orchestral performance at Symphony Hall in Boston. This was a last minute fix, as the performance was on the following day, so there was a crunch. As it turned out, THEY were able to open the omf file perfectly with whatever they were using, and were able to sweeten it up just fine.

Live and learn.

Thanks for all your input.
