4 Adobe Audition at a Glance Precise sample rate conversion Convert audio sample rates with confidence: transparent sample-rate conversion guarantees that if you need to change the sample rate of audio, it will sound its best. Ideal for taking CD material at 44.1kHz and upsampling it to 48kHz for video or 96kHz for DVD. Automation envelopes Create smooth volume, pan, effects parameter, and wet/dry transitions for clips in a multitrack mix using sample-accurate automation envelopes or "rubber bands." Envelope curves can be adjusted using splines to produce gradual, non-linear transitions. Customizable dithering Convert high-bit-rate material to lower resolution formats without introducing audible artifacts. User-definable dither depth and a wide array of Noise Shaping curves assure that your audio will retain its character and definition. High-quality stretching Change tempo without shifting pitch or shift pitch without changing tempo thanks to highquality stretch support. Work Efficiently Adobe Audition increases your productivity with extensive customization and performance options: Customizable workspace Get up and running quickly using an interface that is dockable, resizable, and can be configured to meet your production needs. For example, create default sessions that can be called up as templates for projects that share similar configurations. Real-time effects Process effects in real-time instead of waiting for each effect to render before moving on. To reduce CPU usage, lock a track to cache the rendered effect; unlock it instantly to make adjustments. Integration with Adobe Premiere® Pro and Adobe After Effects® Send your audio from Adobe Premiere Pro or After Effects into Audition with the Edit Original command. WAV files are stamped with session data, so Audition can automatically open the session that created the WAV file you are using in the other software. Organizer window Keep your project resources at your fingertips using the Organizer window, where you can quickly access currently open audio, MIDI, and video files; available effects; and favorites. Batch file processing Use the dedicated batch-processing wizard to easily convert large numbers of files among different sample rates, bit depths, and file formats. Also, automate repetitive tasks with scripts. Surround sound support Use the multichannel encoder to create a surround mix from any session in the multitrack view, then export the mix as a 6-channel wave, six mono waves, or a multichannel WMA 9 file. Favorites Use Favorites to build a customized collection of commands, scripts, effects, and external software tools. Favorites appear in the Organizer window and the Favorites menu, and can be assigned keyboard shortcuts for quick access. Precise analysis tools Work with built-in analysis tools (frequency analysis, phase analysis, statistics, and spectral view) in real-time while editing to save time and see your audio characteristics from edit to edit.
