Hey all,
So I know a standard exists for Pro tools to save to a interchangeable
format for import to Mixbus via a 3rd party software app. Forget the names.
Point is, it would be awesome to be able to save basic sessions in Ardour
and be able to import the track info, edits, etc, into say, Qtractor or
Muse or whatever.
What's out there per open source or proprietary solutions. Is this
something that could be collaborated on in house so to speak?
I use Mixbus for the most part. But for live recording on an older sony
Vaio, it's just too much of a CPU pig! Qtractor is a 1st choice solution
for me. After the session has been saved, it would be great to be able to
import that session to Ardour / Mixbus. Lining up all track data manually
is a pita!
Thoughts? Work arounds? Other open source DAW's?
I use AATranslater to move sessions between different DAWs, but it only
support Ardour2/Mixbus for import/export and Ardour3 for import only, as
far as open source session formats go. Easiest thing to do is to export all
stems (Ardour3 does this quite easily) and then just import those back into
another DAW as a group. Most will automatically align the tracks to session
start or to playhead/edit point.
