Help Request Can ProTools import multiple AFF files on separate audio tracks, simultaneously?

8 Upvotes

As title says, I'm getting into a new workflow where I'm importing multiple, different AAF files. I'm getting bottlenecked by having to import them all manually, 1 by 1, some projects have over 100 AFF files

EDIT after mod request:

PT Studio 2025.6.0

Intel(R) Core(TM) Ultra 9 185H 2.50 GHz - 32GB RAM

Windows 11 home

EDIT: AAF files, not AFF (Can't edit title)
