Adobe Audition

Audition is a software for recording and mixing digital audio data developed by the software publisher Adobe and is one of the references among audio processing software. It is mainly intended for professionals or enthusiastic amateurs including those who make video editing thanks to its integration with Adobe Premiere Pro (see our article on Adobe Premiere Pro for more information).

The main functions of Adobe Audition are recording and mixing audio files in order to export them for publishing podcasts for example. Multiple tracks can be mixed dynamically, and this mixing can be coupled with live recording, using audio acquisition via a microphone, for example, or can be done on previously recorded tracks.

The software also allows you to perform sound cleaning or apply noise reduction settings to improve the quality of a music track or restore a poor quality audio file. Dynamic filters, transitions and audio effects can be applied at different stages of production. Adobe Audition includes a variety of tools for displaying your audio files as tracks, spectra, or waves. Adobe Audition also provides the ability to correct and unify the sound levels of different clips and easily integrate narration or voice-over tracks in a perfectly natural way.

We mentioned earlier the integration of Adobe Audition with Adobe Premiere Pro. This means that you can make changes to one or all of the audio tracks in an edited video sequence in Adobe Premiere Pro to improve the quality of the soundtrack or to mix between tracks.

Thanks to Dynamic Link, exporting your project from one software to the other is extremely simple and offers the possibility to use both software in parallel. This allows you to make additional adjustments to the soundtrack on videos edited in Adobe Premiere Pro without having to make any changes to the project. In this case, you can use Adobe Audition’s automated mixing features to match the length of a song to a video sequence with optimal mixing, while still allowing the user to make any changes to the audio track that he or she wishes. If the project exported to Audition is complete with respect to the video sequence, Adobe Audition can send the entire project after finalizing the audio settings directly to Adobe Media Encoder (see our article on Adobe Media Encoder for more information) for export to a broadcast format.
