Hi Tom (and all!),

A UK Based "lurker" here. I had a similar situation recently with a
system called BCX which also uses APT files.

APT do a plug-in for Adobe Auditon. I've just looked at mine and it
has a file-type option for "APT Scott DSS codec (*.dss)" which you
could use with an Adobe Batch script.

Feel free to email me a test file to broadcastlist <at>
simonhardwick.com and I'll try and convert it here and forward you
contact details for the guy who deals with it. Unfortunately the
product seems to have vanished from their website!
