Can't open .SESX file. Audition crashes.

[BarbaraSousa]

Hi.

I've been trying to open a .sesx file but Audition crashes and generates a dump file (dmp), which I can't open (I'm on Macos). 

Any ideas? 

Is there any way to try to repair this file?

Thank you!

Thanks @emmrecs if the OP wants to email me the sesx file I can look at it
info at aatranslator dot com dot au

Also it might be advisable to check for any backups of the sesx

Hey @SuiteSpot I've seen that you have AAtranslator, I've been having trouble importing an OMF file from audition into ProTools. And seen everything on the internet at this point, do you mind if I send you the .omf file or .sesx file of the adobe audition session.

[SuiteSpot]

Sure - send both if you like

[Mathias B]

Thanks, both sent to you in private !

The OMF is  broken and quite frankly not worth converting the detail from it.
The sesx has 2 issues which I have no doubt will be the cause of the dodgy OMF
I have fixed these and will send you a new sesx and I will send you a ProTools PTX converted from that sesx
