About AER files

The .AER file extension is most commonly a virtual drumkit song file created by the Aerodrums percussion software. These files store drumming performance data captured by a camera system rather than actual audio. A secondary use for the .AER format is as an Aerospace simulation replay file utilized by AGI Systems Tool Kit, which records complex spatial and aerospace trajectories. Occasionally, it is also associated with WSF_PIPE data files for AER Analyzer or Guitar Pro tablature data. The primary disadvantage of the .AER format is its proprietary nature. It requires a specific software ecosystem to open. You cannot open an Aerodrums song in standard media players, nor can you view an STK replay file in standard video software. This creates vendor lock-in and makes sharing difficult. For Aerodrums users, converting the underlying performance data to standard audio formats like WAV or MP3 is necessary to share music. For aerospace analysts, exporting STK replays to MP4 or standard CSV data formats is essential for client presentations. Because .AER is a closed, proprietary format, standard online converters usually fail to process it. Often only the original software can properly read or export the data. However, just drag and drop your file onto convert.guru to identify the format, view its internal structure, and extract any readable text. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.

Convert.Guru analyzes your AER file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted INCX, INCA and INCT files.

The AER Converter Story

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our AER converter.
