Ableton → REAPER. Drop an Ableton Live .als project and get a native REAPER .rpp project — the real session rebuilt, not bounced to stems.
Full walkthrough: How to convert your session to another DAW
Every track, clip and note — rebuilt natively in REAPER, not flattened to stems.
Tracks, MIDI, audio clips, tempo and markers arrive editable. Plugin chains and automation don't cross the Ableton–REAPER boundary yet — your tracks still land named, leveled and panned, so re-adding devices takes minutes, not a rebuild. Nothing is silently dropped.
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.
Ableton Live saves a Live Set as an .als file; REAPER saves a project as an .rpp file. So an Ableton to REAPER converter, converting .als to .rpp (ALS to RPP), turning an Ableton file into a REAPER file, opening an Ableton project in REAPER, importing a Live Set into REAPER, exporting Ableton to REAPER, and moving, transferring or migrating a project from Ableton Live to REAPER all name this one conversion — and it runs here, free to start, online, with nothing to install.
.als file, with its audio in the project folder’s Samples/..rpp text file, with its media referenced from disk.Step by step: how to convert Ableton to REAPER · the other way: REAPER to Ableton (.rpp to .als) · every DAW converter direction
Not directly — REAPER can't read Ableton Live's .als format. Doseedo converts it: upload your .als — or zip the whole project folder (.als + Samples/) so the audio travels with it — and it rebuilds the session as a native REAPER .rpp project you can open and keep working in.
People describe the same job five ways — export Ableton Live to REAPER, import an .als into REAPER, transfer the project, open an Ableton Live project in REAPER — and none of it needs stems. Upload the .als and it converts to a native .rpp that opens in REAPER with tracks, MIDI, audio and the tempo map intact. Want to check the project first? Open the .als in your browser and play it before converting.
Tracks with their names, levels, pans and mutes; MIDI clips at their arrangement positions with every note; audio clips with their files traveling in the project folder; tempo, time signature and section markers. Plugin state and automation don't carry between Ableton and REAPER yet.
Not yet — effect chains and instrument state don't cross the Ableton–REAPER boundary, and the converter never fakes them. Tracks still arrive named, leveled and panned, so re-adding your devices takes minutes instead of a rebuild from stems.
Your project is uploaded over an encrypted connection into your own private space, converted, and is yours to delete anytime.
2 conversions a month with no account, or 5 with a free account, both at full fidelity. Pro is $12/mo for 1,000 conversions a month, no watermark, cancel in one click. One conversion is one project translated one direction; a round-trip is two.
Zip the Ableton project folder (the .als with its Samples/) — or drop a bare .als for structure and MIDI only — on the converter above, then download the .rpp and open it in REAPER. The .als isn't renamed or wrapped: the project is rebuilt as a native REAPER project — tracks, clips, MIDI, tempo map and markers in place.
Yes — this page. It runs in the browser on macOS, Windows, ChromeOS or Linux with nothing to install: 2 conversions a month free with no account, 5 with a free account, 1,000 a month on Pro at $12/month, every plan at full fidelity. You don't need Ableton Live installed to convert; you need REAPER to open the result.
Not directly — REAPER has no .als import and Ableton Live has no .rpp export; both formats are proprietary. Converting the project here rebuilds it as a native .rpp, and REAPER then opens that like one of its own projects — that is the import.
