DAWproject is an open, vendor-agnostic file format and reference implementation for exchanging project data (audio, notes, automation, plug-ins) between Digital Audio Workstations. It aims to preserve higher-level musical structure than MIDI or AAF allow.

Use cases

  • transfer a project between DAWs without exporting stems
  • export notes, automation, and plug-in data in one file
  • build a DAW importer/exporter for an open exchange format
  • preserve musical-time structure when moving sessions
  • avoid consolidating audio when migrating projects

When to choose

  • you are a DAW developer implementing project import/export
  • you need richer fidelity than Standard MIDI Files or AAF provide
  • you want a vendor-neutral, MIT-licensed interchange format

When to avoid

  • you only need simple MIDI note exchange
  • you need video post-production interchange (AAF covers that)
  • your DAW has not adopted the format yet
