192 CHAPTER 9 Generate Menu - Edit View • Mono: If this option is chosen, Adobe Audition generates Mono noise by using a single noise source, with the left and right channels set equally to the same noise source. • Inverse: With this option selected, Adobe Audition generates Inverse noise by using a single noise source (similar to the Mono option). However, this time the left channel's noise is exactly inverse of the right channel's noise. When you listen to it with stereo headphones, the effect is that of the sound coming from the center of your head instead of out in space somewhere. Intensity Adjust this slider to specify the noise's intensity, using a scale from 2 to 40. Or, you can key in the value numerically in the entry box to the right of the slider. With higher intensities, the noise becomes more erratic, and sounds harsher and louder. Duration In this field enter the number of seconds of noise you want to generate. Note: For very long periods of noise, it's faster to generate a shorter period (say, about 10 to 20 seconds) and delete excess noise at the beginning and end so that the waves are starting and ending at the midpoint. Then copy and loop (using Edit > Mix Paste) as many times as needed. Generate Tones Use this function to create a simple waveform, with control over numerous amplitude- and frequency-related settings. Generating tones is a great way to provide base audio to create impressive sound effects. Generate Tones dialog Initial Settings When the Lock to these settings only box is unchecked, choose this tab to select the initial tone settings. The tone generated will gradually go from the initial state to the final. Final Settings When the Lock to these settings only box is unchecked choose this tab to select the final tone settings. The tone generated will gradually go from the initial state to the final.
