Hey all,
I just got a copy of Adobe Audition Creative Cloud through work. Has anyone used it? I found some old posts but nothing to recent. The interface does look sweet.

I've been using this recently because I use both a Mac and PC, and my license allows installation onto both machines, so I can bring the files back and forth when I'm doing post.
I pretty much use it to host the Izotope VST plugin suite where I do most of the post-processing. In terms of using the features of the program, I use it for simple stuff. I haven't found a very simple way to split a single wav file into tracks. The other thing is that WaveLab has a nice normalization feature that lets me normalize using RMS, and also I can set the peak. I haven't found if Audition can do this. I keep meaning to look into it, but usually just fall back into WaveLab.

I just started using Audition but am a novice. I'm trying it because I havent been that happy with the programs Ive used so far...
Sound Devices has a program called wave agent that I find useful for splitting tracks easily... Its free nut you have to get an account...
Very extensive user guide. https://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/audition_reference.pdf
I tired it with Premier for a while - ultimately my machines seemed too slow - and I got tired of paying the monthly fee (especially months where I didn't use it!)
I use it for mixing music and field recordings. If you've used other Adobe apps/software, you'll feel comfortable in Audition.
Nice find! I found the loudness options on pg. 51 of the document. I'll play around with it and see if I can do what I want with it.

Ted splitting tracks and cutting on sector boundaries is simple
in Audition. I posted some screenshots here

Thanks Ed! It's still a bit complicated -- any time I have to look it up, I categorize it as too complicated! ;D
But it's good to have it here, and I'll book mark it.
I think when I do it, there must be a bug on my system, or maybe I'm not doing it right. It will split the tracks, but then the tracks are sometimes jumbled up. So track 4 becomes track 8, etc. I then have to export each track one by one. Which isn't a major hassle, but it would be nice to set the markers, then hit a split command.

I used it for a year. Great product if you use it but you still pay for it when your not. That was my issues so I let my subscription lapse.
One of my sound therapy professors (yes, technically I am taking a "college level" course on what I do with singing bowls & gongs) says RX5 pro or suite is the only way to go. He states in one of the classes I took with him that Audition is actually a scaled down version and he has tried them all. So that was one of the reasons I dropped it & went the RX5 route.
Different learning curve though. There are things I want to do after a year of using audition I want to do but can't or have to change the way I think I should do it.
Otherwise if you don't mind subscriptions, its an awesome program & you can fix a LOT with it.
