AATranslator was originally developed to take advantage of one of the best wave editors available - Adobe Audition®. It's ability to remove background noise from film dialogue tracks or chair squeaks from orchestral recordings with an absolute minimum of sonic damage is almost certainly the best offered by any DAW. This combined with its multitrack capabilites makes it possible to work entirely in Audition which most Audition users do.
However, there may commercial or practical reasons where it is necessary to move a session from one DAW to another. Unfortunately Audition currently has no real method of achieving this.
AATranslator history started in early 2009 with the recently updated (2008) AES31 specification and then included Samplitude's EDL, the Reaper variant and native Reaper support, Steinberg Track Archives (XMLs) from Cubase SX3, v4 & v5 as well as Nuendo v2, v3 & v4. Additionally we included support for OpenTL and a function similar to Audition's old 'append session' feature. In v1.3 we improved the Cubase/Nuendo import and added an export function as well as import/export of Vegas EDL/TXT and improved video support across all formats.
Version 2.0 saw the release of a 'limited track count' ProTools v5 import facility (both Mac & PC PT5 files) as well as Vegas XML import and a totally rewritten installation code along with a host of minor fixes and enhancements including SD2 to Wav conversion and also splitting stereo Wavs to mono.
Version 2.1 included an import function for Audition and Cool Edit Pro session files (AA 1.0,1.5, 2.0, 3.0 & CEP 1.2, 1.2a, 2.0 & 2.1) as well as export functions for Presonus Capture (xml) and Vegas XML.
Version 2.2 saw the ability to import OMF2 files as well as export to OpenTL format. We also provided some enhanced Vegas scripts to allow for Track Gain & Track Pan to be included when importing and exporting. Version 2.3 added Apple XML (Final Cut Pro & the Logic Pro variant), Presonus Capture import and export to Audition 1.5 SES format as well as improvements in all existing formats and some support for Paris OMFs. Version 2.4 includes an enhanced session join/append function (join any session from any daw to any other session from any other daw) as well as improved OpenTL and Paris OMF support.
Version 3 is a major release with a many enhancements & fixes across the board and along with a rewritten PT import module and a PT5 export function.
Version 3.1 reduced conversion times dramatically and improved both omf & PT5 imports along with many minor additions and fixes and OMF to PT5 translation. Version 3.2 added Ardour support and improvements across all formats as well as adding track automation.
Future releases
include an OMF export function (thanks to Ron Novy) as well as further Tracktion support and additional formats.
