I need to convert a bunch of Adobe Audition sessions to Pro Tools, and originally I was going to buy a copy of EDL Convert (www.cuibono-soft.com/Products/EDL_Conve ... t_v41.html) but it appears that they've been sold to SSL and they've discontinued their product! I called SSL and they told me that they have no firm date as to when they'll re-release the product under their own name, but that they're planning on selling it for $699 instead of Cuibono's original $249 price.
What luck!
Anyone have any ideas of how I might be able to do this? The problem is that Adobe Audition doesn't export in BWF, and it also can't consolidate tracks. The biggest problem is getting the volume envelopes from one format into the other.
What I've been doing is using the demo version of EDL Convert (which you can still download) but it's crippled and buggy so I end up having to go into the Pro Tools sessions and MANUALLY redrawing the volume envelopes. I don't need to tell you how painful that is!
Any ideas much appreciated!!

Yeah, I wondered about that too -- I wasn't able to find anything on the adobe site that said one way or the other...

The few times I looked into this I had to just make sure that the tracks all start at the beginning, So I feel your pain.

hmmm.... bounce each track solo'd?
relying on automation is one of the worst crutches of the DAW world... if the volume automation is so crucial, why not just stay in the first program? or if the automation is done, you should just print it and call it done.... i never understood keeping automation... it will never sound the same in a different program, anyway, or if it is fanned out to a console.
i would just do all zero bounces so that your important automation just becomes part of the tracks, and then approach things with a fresh perspective in the next platform.
