We just released AAF Bridge for Ableton Live
Improvements:
• Crossfades, rebuilt. The new crossfade compensation lets you correct crossfade joints to be acoustically correct when doing handovers with NLEs / DAWs that map crossfades symmetrically.
• Markers now appear correctly in Avid Media Composer and Pro Tools.
• Bug fix that could cause desync when multiple crossfades appeared in a row.
AAF Bridge let's you import AAF and XML to Ableton Live and export Ableton Live Sets to AAF and XML.

Hey guys. We just released V1.2.5 with full split-stereo support:
Combine split-stereo tracks (AAF → Ableton)
Some editors export stereo tracks as two mono tracks — either by default or optional. Nuendo, Cubase and Protools for example write two identically named neighbour tracks for left and right. AAF Bridge now detects these pairs when you load an AAF and combines them back into stereo tracks. The new combine split-stereo toggle turns itself on when pairs are found and a review window opens before converting. It lists every pair, lets you uncheck any of them, rename the combined track, or pair two tracks manually if a split wasn't detected automatically. Each combined clip becomes one interleaved multichannel stereo file at the original sample rate and bit depth.
One track per channel (Ableton → AAF)
This export option splits stereo tracks into one mono files per channel — the split-file layout these editors work with internally. Your stereo tracks stay stereo tracks in the timeline; only the media files are delivered per channel. Turn it on for Pro Tools and Nuendo and other NLEs/DAWs that work that way, leave it off for Resolve and Media Composer, which expect ordinary multichannel files.
