EdiMarker |
EdiMarker is an application that allows sound editors, sound supervisors and music producers to load markers into Pro Tools. EdiMarker does this by loading the data from a Text file (including a Nuendo, Reaper or iZotope RX marker file) or a Microsoft Excel file. It then exports this data as an AAF file or MIDI file which Pro Tools can import.
EdiMarker can convert one file at a time, or when several files need to be converted with the same file type and settings, the 'Multiple Files' tab can be used to batch convert a set of files.
NOTE: To export marker information from Pro Tools, select the Pro Tools File > Export > Session Info As Text menu and check the 'Include Markers' option to create a text file containing the markers with their location, name and comments. EdiMarker cannot import a Pro Tools 'Session Info As Text' file directly. If you need to transfer markers from one session into another use the Pro Tools menu File > Import > Session Data and check 'Markers / Memory Locations'.
