Question

convert .ses files to .sesx

I just bought a program to convert .ses files to .sesx files, because I want to be able to open my old work. Now I cannot find the Ses2Sesx app anywhere on my PC. Who knows how to convert my files. I paid nicely for everything Audition and Ses2Sesx. I do not get it. thanks in advance

Well, it's been a long time, but I have solved this problem by installing Audition3.0 and saving all my old projects with .xml extension. Then I opened them with Audition2022

why does one have to pay to convert a file from an old version of Audition to a new version of Audition when we bought both the old and new versions?  Can't adobe let new audition convert that file type?

I suspect that there were several reasons for this...

1. Adobe could spend about 18 months and scarce resources (and delay implementation of CS5) to build what was already in existence.

2. Ses2Sesx was originally donationware and remained so for a couple of years.  Unfortunately, in most people's minds this meant free and this is the reason it is no longer donationware.

3. Adobe weren't even aware of some of the Cool Edit versions that existed prior to their purchase of CEP so there was no way they could build a complete conversion function.

There are probably other reasons but that is plenty IMO
