What is AAF Bridge?

AAF Bridge converts AAF and XML to Ableton Live — and back.

A two-way converter for macOS and Windows that imports AAF, Premiere XML and FCPXML timelines as native Ableton Live projects — and exports finished Live sets back to the edit.

Ableton Live has no native AAF import or export — even though AAF is the interchange format most NLEs and DAWs export. Delivering a timeline to or from Ableton Live has always meant stems and a manual rebuild. AAF Bridge closes the gap in both directions. On import, an AAF becomes a native Ableton Live project. On export, a finished Ableton Live set is written back to AAF:

  • Sample-accurate clip positions and source offsets
  • dedicated video track when selected
  • Fades and crossfades, clip gain, volume automation, pan and markers carried over
  • MXF-wrapped audio converts to WAV automatically
  • Collect-media option gathers all assets into one movable folder
  • Optional Crossfade compensation for NLEs/DAWs that map crossfades symmetrically at the joint
  • Also reads and writes Premiere XML, FCPXML and FCPXMLD
  • time-stretched warped clips are flagged for consolidation rather than silently rendered.
  • seamless handling of split-stereo audio tracks for full compatibility with Pro Tools, Nueondo, etc
  • Every conversion creates a report that lists what did and didn't transfer

AAF Bridge is available now for macOS and Windows: US$49 one-time, no subscription, fully offline. The free demo is the full app and converts the first 120 seconds of any timeline, with no signup.
