This edition covers many new features in Adobe Audition CS6, and how to apply
them optimally in real-world situations. It addresses audio and music professionals
who depend on Audition’s tools to accomplish a variety of tasks, as well as videographers
who want to become more involved in the process of creating, editing, and
sweetening audio intended for video productions.
The book is organized in three separate parts. The introduction starts with how
to get audio in and out of Audition on both Mac and Windows platforms, then
progresses to an overview of the Audition Workspace—a collection of modules,
each dedicated to specific tasks, that you can open, close, and rearrange, depending
on the nature of the project, to optimize workflow and efficiency. The second
part concentrates on digital audio editing in the Waveform Editor, and covers such
topics as editing, signal processing and effects, audio restoration, mastering, and
sound design. To segue into the final third, it also covers recording, and integration
with the Multitrack Editor.
The final section covers the Multitrack Editor in detail, including editing, automation,
creating music with sound libraries, in-depth coverage of mixing, and creating
soundtracks for video. Throughout the book, examples using digital audio clips
created specifically for this book give practical, hands-on experience that brings to
life the theory presented in these pages. Even non-musicians will learn how to create
music using sound libraries and loops in conjunction with Audition’s extensive
toolset for sound creation and editing. You’ll even learn how to do rough testing of
your room acoustics prior to mixing, using tools within Audition.
