Select the AAF Export - Use clip-based audio envelope check box if you want to combine track and event gain envelopes and save them as clip-based gain envelopes in the AAF file. When the check box is cleared, track envelopes are saved as track envelopes, and event envelopes are saved as clip envelopes. When you import an AAF file, the track- and clip-based gain envelopes are combined and imported as track envelopes.
