328 CHAPTER 19 Options Menu - Multitrack View Device Properties The Device Properties dialog is where you tell Adobe Audition which devices to use for playback and recording of waveforms, as well as input and output of MIDI signals. Note: Complete documentation on the Device Properties dialog can be found in the "Options Menu - Edit View" chapter. Device Order The Device Ordering Preference window allows you to set the order in which Adobe Audition uses your system's playback, recording, MIDI output, and MIDI input devices. The order of preference chosen determines which tracks get assigned to which devices when loading multitrack sessions on systems with different sound card configurations. Note: The Device Order dialog is fully documented in the "Options Menu - Edit View" chapter. Shortcuts (Keyboard & MIDI Triggers) Shortcuts are used to speed up the editing process by allowing you to execute almost any command in Adobe Audition from your computer and/or MIDI keyboard. For example, instead of using your mouse to go to the Edit menu and selecting Cut to cut the highlighted portion of a wave block, you can simply press Ctrl+X. Likewise, you can execute commands from a MIDI keyboard, a sequencer, or any other device capable of issuing a MIDI command. This type of shortcut is referred to as a MIDI Trigger. An example of this would be assigning the Play command in Adobe Audition to the C4 note on your MIDI keyboard. Note: The Keyboard Shortcuts dialog is fully documented in the "Keyboard Shortcuts" chapter.
