Sorry if this should be in classifieds?

I will PayPal in advance anyone who can put together a video that shows exactly how to time align to audio tracks in Adobe Audition due to digital drift.
Soundboard and Audience mix or two audience tapes etc.
I have read a few tutorials but I just can't get it. I am a visual learner so if I can see this done once I can do it and I am sure there are many who would benefit from a video like this!

Please Help.

Thanks,
NT

I have never used Audition, but the task you need is two alignment sync spots, one near the start and one near the end of the files. When you find these and mark them relative to the track you're not planning to change, you will also need to mark the start of the moved track at each point, so you can measure the difference (how far you moved it.)

After finding the points, I use a spreadsheet to calculate the math (stretch or squash to sync) to make them the same length for the overlapped section.

Once one has been adjusted in length, then simply slide it to match the other (reference) at the first sync point, then check to see if the math worked because the second point should be correct now as well

Then you can mix them.

Sorry it's not a video, but since I don't use Adobe anyhow, my Audacity movie might not help you. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That's about as short as I can describe my process. Hope it helps.

I did this some years ago.

I can provide you with the excel sheet I wrote that does the math calculations.

About halfway through, you can hear my cats fighting in the background. I left that in for laughs.

Hope this helps!

Uses combination of AA 3.0 and AA-CC. When they rebuilt the engine in AA 5 and on, the new Time Stretch module just isn't as accurate as the time stretch in AA 3.0. So I do everything in AA-CC, and then do the actual stretch in AA 3.

I thought I posted my handy spreadsheet link on that thread so folks could enjoy it but I can't seem to find it.

Here is my spreadsheet for calculating the speed change:

If you can't use it live in a browser, just download it and use it at home.
