Full walkthrough: How to convert your session to another DAW

§ What transfers

What comes across

Every track, clip and note, written into a .dawproject Cubase imports, not flattened to stems.

Tracks Arrangement MIDI Audio clips Sample files inside the file Track levels Markers Tempo & sig Automation not yet Plugin chains not yet
§ Honesty

Told straight, never silently dropped

Tracks with their names, levels, pans and mutes; MIDI clips with every note; audio clips with their files inside the .dawproject; tempo, time signature and markers. Plugin chains aren’t promised on this pair yet; the conversion report names every plugin and what became of it. Automation isn’t promised on this pair yet. Nothing is silently dropped: every conversion comes with a report of what changed.

§ Privacy

Your music stays yours

Local conversions stay right in your browser: your session never leaves your computer, nothing uploaded, nothing stored. Uploaded sessions move over an encrypted connection into your own private space, with access only you control, and yours to delete anytime.

§ Questions

Pro Tools to Cubase: common questions

Can Cubase open a Pro Tools .ptx file?

Not as a native Cubase project. Doseedo converts it: upload your .ptx, or zip the whole session folder (the .ptx with its Audio Files/) so the audio travels with it, and it writes a .dawproject (the open DAWproject format Cubase 14 or later imports) with the tracks, MIDI, audio and tempo map in place.

Why do I get a .dawproject and not a .cpr?

Cubase’s own .cpr format isn’t publicly documented, and a file we can’t be sure opens would only look like a conversion. DAWproject is the open project format Bitwig and PreSonus created together; Cubase 14 or later imports it through its DAWproject import, and Nuendo reads the same file. The download is that one file, with the audio inside it.

How do I export or transfer a Pro Tools project to Cubase?

People describe the same job five ways (export Pro Tools to Cubase, import a .ptx into Cubase, transfer the project, open a Pro Tools project in Cubase), and none of it needs stems. Upload the .ptx and it converts to a .dawproject Cubase imports with tracks, MIDI, audio and the tempo map intact.

What carries over from Pro Tools to Cubase?

Tracks with their names, levels, pans and mutes; MIDI clips with every note; audio clips with their files inside the .dawproject; tempo, time signature and markers. Plugin chains aren’t promised on this pair yet; the conversion report names every plugin and what became of it. Automation isn’t promised on this pair yet.

Do my plugins transfer from Pro Tools to Cubase?

Plugin chains aren’t promised on this pair yet; the conversion report names every plugin and what became of it. Nothing is faked: whatever doesn’t cross the Pro Tools–Cubase boundary is named in the conversion report.

Is my project private?

Your project is uploaded over an encrypted connection into your own private space, converted, and is yours to delete anytime.

How many conversions are free?
