USING ADOBE AUDITION 22 Importing, recording, and playing audio Bit Depth Determines the amplitude range of the session, including recordings and files created with the Multitrack > Mixdown To New File command. (See "Understanding bit depth" on page 6.) Important: Choose a bit depth carefully, because it cannot be changed after you create a session. Ideally, you should work at the 32-bit level with CoreAudio and ASIO sound cards, and the 16-bit level with MME cards. If your system performs slowly, try a lower bit depth. Master Determines whether tracks are mixed down to a mono, stereo, or 5.1 Master track. (See "Routing audio to buses, sends, and the Master track" on page 112.) More Help topics "About multitrack sessions" on page 105 Open existing audio files and multitrack mixes The following file types open in the Multitrack Editor: Audition Session, Adobe Premiere Pro Sequence XML, Final Cut Pro XML Interchange, and OMF. All other supported file types open in the Waveform Editor, including the audio portion of video files. Important: SES session files from previous Audition versions are unsupported.
