Features

Principal reasons for buying Adobe Audition 3

• Flexible, low-latency mixing engine
  Work with high-performance audio devices that use the ASIO driver model. Mix your tracks on the fly, hearing changes as you make them. The mixing engine offers tremendous routing flexibility with support for all the effects you want, and VSTi virtual instrument support means even greater sonic variety, flexibility, and precision.
• Integrated wave
  Editing view with Mastering Rack—Record and edit individual audio files with fast, accurate tools that are also tightly integrated with the Multitrack View for an improved workflow. Use the Mastering Rack to apply and preview multiple effects simultaneously when working with files in Edit View. Quickly edit how your file starts and ends by zooming in with the Top and Tail View, and then adjust with on-clip controls for volume and fades.
• Unmatched audio restoration tools including frequency space editing
  Restore recordings from old vinyl, remove hisses and hums, fix clipped audio and phase problems, and recover previously unusable recordings. Editing in frequency space has become more flexible with the new Effects Paintbrush tool and Spot Healing Brush.
• More than 50 included DSP effects and tools
  Work with more than 50 digital signal processing (DSP) tools and effects, mastering and analysis tools, and audio restoration features. Expand your toolset even further with support for third-party VST and DirectX plug-ins.
• Loop-based music creation with thousands of included royalty-free loops
  Use flexible looping tools to quickly construct high-quality music for songs or movie soundtracks. Loops automatically match global session tempo and key to produce dynamic compositions. Thousands of uncompressed, 32-bit, royalty-free loops are included.
• Audio editing for video, including unmatched integration with Adobe video software
  Edit video soundtracks easily with the ability to view video frames in the timeline and import and export video files, including AVI, native DV, and WMV. Use Edit Original to quickly open an audio file’s source session from within Adobe Premiere Pro software.
• Support for industry standards, including VST, VSTi, DirectX, ReWire, and BWF
  Easily integrate Adobe Audition into your overall workflow thanks to broad support for industrystandard formats and models.
• Recordable parameter automation, including external hardware support
  Move volume, pan, and effects controls as you listen, and record those changes to your mix in real time. Your changes appear as envelopes that can be edited in the timeline. Real-time parameter changes can also be made using an external hardware controller.
• Surround Encoder
  Use the Surround Encoder to view a video while keyframing or editing any multitrack mix into a 5.1 surround-sound experience, and then export the results as an interleaved file for use in Adobe Premiere Pro.
• Intuitive, easy-to-learn user interface
  Enjoy an updated, easy-to-use interface that is consistent with that found in the latest versions of Adobe video applications. Use workspace panels that can dock and group for easy desktop organization, and save panel arrangements as custom workspaces that can be recalled easily.

• Improved multitrack editing
  Save time and increase accuracy by editing grouped clips together, including trims and fades (for example, easily apply trims and fades to all vocal or drum tracks at the same time to ensure consistency) and ripple delete on one or more tracks. Then quickly batch save all audio files.
• New effects including Convolution Reverb
  New effects including Convolution Reverb, Analog Delay, mastering tools, and Tube-modeled Compressor offer an even wider range of creative possibilities.
• Radius time stretching from iZotope

  Enhance your sound with a stack of realistic effects designed for guitars or other instruments, including analog-modeled amplifier, filter, and distortion modules.
• Top and Tail View
  See a zoomed-in view of the start and end of a file next to a view of the whole file so you can work specifically and effectively on the opening and closing segments of your tracks. Great for tuning loops or quickly making sure files start and end smoothly.
• New noise reduction and phase correction tools
  The new Adaptive Noise Reduction tool adapts to the recording over time, adjusting the noise it removes to give you clean results. Also, address phase problems with automatic and manual phase correction tools.
• Multitrack auto-crossfade and fade handles
  Auto-crossfade clips in Multitrack View to quickly mix files together. Click and drag fade handles on multitrack clips and in Edit View for faster editing.
