195 Chapter 10: Analyze Menu - Edit View T he Analyze menu contains functions that give you information about the file or selection being displayed when in the Edit View mode. Show Frequency Analysis This command displays Adobe Audition's Frequency Analysis window. It contains a graph of the frequencies at the cursor position or at the center of a selection. The x-axis (left to right) represents frequency (measured in Hz), while the y-axis (bottom to top) corresponds to the amplitude of the corresponding frequency (measured in dB) on the x-axis. Frequency Analysis Window The Frequency Analysis window can float above Adobe Audition's main interface, or dock at any one of several places within it. Linear View Check the Linear View box to display the graph's plot with a linear horizontal frequency scale; uncheck it to display the plot on a logarithmic scale. Hold Press one of the four Hold buttons (which are numbered 1, 2, 3, and 4) as a waveform is playing to take a "snapshot" of the waveform's frequency at that moment in time. The frequency outline (which is rendered in the same color as the button pushed) is frozen on the graph and overlaid on the other frequency line(s). Up to four frozen frequency outlines may be shown at once. To clear a frozen frequency outline, press its corresponding Hold button again. Status Areas The left status area directly underneath the graph displays the waveform's overall highest frequency, as well as the maximum amplitude for both the left and right channels. The right status area directly underneath the graph displays the frequency for the left and right channels measured at the insertion point. It also shows, in parentheses, each channel's musical equivalent note number and positive/negative cents. Options Use this drop-down list to select a graphing display option.
