AATranslator - project converter

[aktivist]

Pour les inconditionnels d'Adobe Audition (Ex Cool Edit pro de Syntrillium racheté par Adobe), et les autres..., un nouveau venu sur la scène des "project converter"

http://www.aatranslator.com.au

Très intéressant, et à 99$ jusqu'en Septembre...
Pas encore eu le temps de tester, mais très intéressant sur le papier !!!

[Dorian]

Pour l'instant il manque le support Pro Tools et Vegas, mais c'est vrai qu'à ce prix...
Si qqn teste et peut nous faire un petit feedback, ce serait cool.

Bye.

J'ai l'impression que ce soft va être utile au monteur qui bosse avec Adobe Premiere pour pouvoir faire des export de leur montage pour le montage son.
Car jusque c'est un peu la m.... pour récupérer des sons de ce soft (heureusement peu de gens l'utilise en pro mais sur du court ..)

Du coup, vu que tout est lié chez adobe, un passage du montage dans adobe audition, une moulinette AATranslator et zou tout le monde peut le lire sauf PT.

Une guerre entre les grandes marques (adobe, Digi ....??).

Bon

Comtent que cela te plaise.
On va tous pouvoir travailler tranquillement sur nos Reaper, sans trop craindre les pertes d'infos lors des exports vers Pro Tools ou Nuendo.

A vérifier mais quelques antivirus "couinent" un peu sur les fichiers AA Translator

[Dorian]

Les fichiers AATranslator ? C'est à dire ?

J'ai pas trop eu le temps de tester, mais perso ce sont sur surtout les imports Premiere / VEGAS / FCP et l'interopérabilité Pro Tools / Nuendo / Pyramix qui m'intéressent (j'ai pas Reaper).

En tout cas le développeur a l'air super réactif, et ça c'est AMHA extrêmement important pour ce type d'outil ! Quand je vois l'immobilisme de SSL avec son Pro-Convert (pas de MAJ depuis décembre 2008 !), c'est honteux .

Manque juste une version OS X à mon gout ...

j'aimerais une confirmation "pratique" d'une possible conversion d'une session FCP X vers ... qq chose d'autres.

je ne sais plus si tu en as une licence, dorian ?

[Dorian]

Oui j'ai une license, fait péter ta session FCP X (que je n'ai pas) par mail et précise moi le format destinataire ? Tu zippes le tout bien sur, pour éviter les problêmes de ressources ou autres.
Ce soft est vraiment extraordinaire, et m'a sauvé plus d'un coup ! Et vu son prix (donné pour ce type d'outil je trouve, on sent l'origine Reaper), faut pas se priver ! Seul "problême", ça ne marche que sous Windows (ou sur Mac via machine virtuelle type VMware, j'ai pas testé les autres).

Sinon je revends aussi une license Pro-Convert de SSL, pas cher selon l'offre, pask'ils se foutent du monde je trouve (aucun suivi, pas d'update depuis Mathusalem, un dongle proprio que personne d'autre n'utilise (bugs potentiels système en plus) : zéro pointé SSL ! ). J'aimais déjà pas SSL à la base (leur console et leur son), mais avec ce soft ils m'ont définitivement perdu . C'est vendeur tout ça, non ? Arf .
