I’ve actually done similar, using XtoCC to bring the project back into FCP7. It does involve a bit of cleanup and I don’t fully trust that everything has translated cleanly in a 90 minute project with that method. Then I’m also limited to exporting a bunch of OMFs under 2 GB in size each. I could give Premier or Audition a shot though. Might be worth a look for sure.
In the meantime I’ve just been letting x2pro do it’s translation (which is taking far too long) and plan on driving a physical drive to post audio with the massive AAF on it.
Anyways, thanks for your help. You’ve done more to assist me than the support team has actually offered. They still need to solve this because, as you said, when you’re paying a decent price for an application it should work “out of the box”.

I converted your FCPxml with XtoCC to a FCP7 xml for import in Premiere OR Audition. You can export the AAF or OMF (Audition) from there, with Premiere roles will get lost, with Audition I am not really sure. You might need to clean up your tracks, cause you might have many (empty) ones.
When "washing" through Logic it is normal behaviour the handles are ignored.
Hope this gets you a bit further!

Also when exporting AAF to sound meaning we're mostly on tight deadlines as it always goes with postproduction. The answers just take too long and aren't always helpful.

I am growing increasingly frustrated with the lack of support for a product that I paid good money for. I supplied a copy of my XML and have not been provided any answers. I would really appreciate some results here please.

The problem seems to be the camera audio, specifically the Arri Amira/Alexa camera, but might happen with other brand camera's too.
1. Detach audio for these problematic clips
2. Break audio apart from video for these same clips (Shift+CMD+G)
3. Remove the camera audio from the timeline (so you're only left with the sync audio)
In our case we only need the separate sync audio, I am not sure how to fix in case you need the camera audio.
File size are now within reason and also the AAF export works.
Thanks,
Rob

Have you got the "Trim embedded audio" option selected? Having this ticked will only take the media that you are using.

The LE version doesn't allow you to trim the audio you are using. So if you are using 10 seconds of a 20 minute clip then the whole 20 minute clip will be taken.The Pro version does allow you to take just the bits you are using.

Unfortunately the paid software is useless for me until this issue is resolved. Hopefully a solution can be found soon. Any idea on a timeline?

The problem is (at least it was for Robmaas) parts of the same wav. file are being used multiple times throughout, which was causing the same metadata to be copied in multiple times, causing a giant file to be created. Unfortunately we haven't found a way to deal with this yet and our developers are looking into how to prevent this.
