Mixbus used to have quite good support for AAF (I know - because I wrote it!!) But the problem with AAF was that the spec itself was too open to interpretation
Avid's interpretation was usually the best - but everyone else's tended to be flaky. Typical problems included crossfades not getting handled correctly- or for stereo material, sometimes only the left-hand channel got exported!!
Can your client export sessions in ProTools format? I've never tried Mixbus's PT import feature but by all accounts it's quite good... Worth a try maybe?
Or if ProTools format isn't feasible... there's a product called AATranslator. It's pretty expensive - and Windows only (the last I heard) BUT...
if you look about 4 posts down there's a guy from AATranslator saying they can offer a file conversion service. If it works for you, you can then make a donation which comes off the price of any future AATranslator purchase.
Wish I'd thought of that.!
