[Avid Pro Tools][avp] can be used to make spotting notes for ADR recording
|
||||||
|
sessions by creating spotting regions with descriptive text and exporting the
|
||||||
|
session as text. This file can then be dropped into Excel or any CSV-reading
|
||||||
|
app like Filemaker Pro.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**ptulsconv** accepts a text export from Pro Tools and automatically creates
|
||||||
|
PDF and CSV documents for use in ADR spotting, recording, editing and
|
||||||
|
reporting, and supplemental JSON documents can be output for use with other
|
||||||
|
workflows.
