![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() AIFF-C/sowt Audio Interchange File Format - Compressed/sowt: A little-known audio file format introduced by Apple sometime in late 2006- early 2007 without documentation or announcement.I don't remember much about it, but here is what I put in the Tips Sheet glossary at the time: Then there was a period in which exports to AIFF weren't working right. Mach Five 2 was to be compatible with Apple Loops, but shortly after it came out, Apple changed the format and they no longer worked. This isn't the first time that Apple has changed a format soon after MOTU went to great pains to provide an export/import path. But the situation may be more complex than we know. It's a valid question for which I do not know the answer. Why can't DP work the way it's supposed to work, instead of always blaming Apple?

I don't know what is missing in the AAF's created by X2Pro or Media Composer, but once run through PT I can get stuff into DP no problem. I've also had to do this with AAF's exported out of Avid Media Composer to get them into DP. In order to get the audio I had to use(gasp) Pro Tools 10 to import the X2Pro AAF file which I then saved as another AAF(File -> Export -> Selected Tracks as New AAF/OMF.) that I was able to import into DP with the audio now in place. Importing the X2Pro AAF into DP results in a Project which has no audio in it, whether opened from the File menu or importing into an empty Project from File -> Import -> OMF/AAF As Project. I used the LE version of X2Pro for the XML -> AAF conversion, which at the time of this writing just got updated to version 2.3 which supports FCP XML v1.4 as well as spanned R3D files in Mavericks. I just revisited this topic, having to move some audio out of FCPX for editing since that functionality within FCPX is shall I say, lacking. ![]()
