### "Functional Podcast Editing and Mixing Software"

December 10, 2020

5.0

Adobe Audition is an easy and professional audio production application that I will continue to use for my student podcast assignments.

Pros

As someone who teaches writing and communication at the college-level, I use Adobe Audition as the my main software for student podcast assignments. My university provides students access to Adobe software, and it works well on both Mac and PC platforms. Students have been using Audition each semester to produce their own podcast episodes about their research topics, and many have praised the ease of the software even though they may have had no experience with audio recording or production before.

Cons

The input and output selections for separate tracks is not as intuitive as they could be. Each audio track has to be assigned a specific input and output when it could easily be defaulted to main input/output on the device running the software. Finally, the application saves metadata files separate from the actual media included in the project, which can make exporting or sharing a project before final mixdown slightly difficult.

### "Fantastic for audio mastering and linking to other adobe suites"

March 31, 2022

5.0

Pros

The best feature, for me, is that I can quickly jump from premier pro into audition to jump into the audio in much more detail than premiers' tools.

Cons

I can't really fault it in all honesty. Audio isn't my strongest point in the company so I would probably say the price of the adobe full suite can put companies off.

### "The advanced audio editing tool that helps us repair podcast episodes"

May 19, 2021

5.0

Audition allows my team to help our clients podcasts sound amazing. When you are recording remotely there will always be some background noises, and Audition helps us to remove those cell phone rings, baby cries, and dog barks.

Pros

I love how Audition allows for advanced audio editing. Aside from mastering, it also gives us the kind of precision needed to remove background sounds that other tools miss.

Cons

While Audition has a lot of advanced functionality, it means that it can be difficult to onboard new users. This is why only a few people on my team use the software. There is also not a good way to collaborate on a project with others, aside from taking turns editing the file. I wish there was an Audition plugin with Descript that would give similar functionality as the Wipster.io Video Review Panel in Adobe Premiere to sync files and comments between applications.

### "It can do a lot, but so can other, cheaper products."

December 6, 2022

3.0

Unless you are working on a very in depth project, such as recording an album or an audio drama, I'd recommend using a cheap or free program like Audacity. The vast VAST majority of audio editing I've needed to do can be done in other, more intuitive programs.

Pros

Adobe Audition features a large amount of tools and options to make your audio sound better. If you know what you're doing, you can do some really cool things with this program. Exporting audio clips from Premier into Audition for further editing works very well.

Cons

Pretty much everything about Audition feels clunky. I always feel like I could be doing this quicker in another program, like Audacity or even Adobe Premier.

### "Audition Is My Go To For Podcast Editing"

December 29, 2021

5.0

Pros

Adobe Audition has incredible presets and effects that make editing so easy. Plus, learning the shortcuts and the ability to create your own shortcuts, makes editing quick.

Cons

The price. $20 feels pretty steep. I wish there was an option to buy the software outright and then pay an upgrade fee for newer versions.

### "Do It!"

August 31, 2021

5.0

If I have any issues I go to the Adobe website faqs or Youtube for advice.

Pros

Adobe Audition is the premiere audio editing software. From expert to the beginner it allows you to use it to do simple editing to complicated multi-layered tracks.

Cons

The cost can be a bit high when your first learning but it will pay off as you become more of an expert.

### "Simple, intuitive and does what its supposed to."

February 6, 2021

5.0

17 years using this for audio production for radio and podcasts. I have thought it in college and students love it once they get used to it. It is simply a genius piece of software and you can transform audio that is of low quality with a few tweaks here and there.

Pros

Whether you are looking for a simple audio edit or a complex multitrack session Adobe Audition has it all. I've been using this since it was called Cool Edit Pro in 2004 and it only gets better with age. Once you get part the overwhelming feature rich UX you are going to love this software.

Cons

It does have quite an extensive amount of features and therefore it can have quite a steep learning curve. Probably not the best software for the none techie who isn't intimidated by loads of buttons and options. Apart from this, I love Audition.

Alternatives considered

[Pro Tools](https://www.capterra.com/p/214607/Pro-Tools/)

Reason for choosing Adobe Audition

It was free and more suited to the audio editing environment, whilst Pro Tools is better for music production, in my humble opinion.

### "Adobe Audition: Great sound editing software"

April 25, 2021

5.0

Pros

Adobe audition has a lot of features when it comes to audio editing and it is also a professional standard. it also has an amazing library for support, lots of tutorials online and its features can be extended through plugins

Cons

You need to go through lots of tutorials before you can start using it, so its not great for beginners and apart from that, it is a great audio editing software

### "Very helpful, easy to use and great results"

July 15, 2021

5.0

Adobe Audition is being used in our in-house media production. On several jobs we've created a video using interviews and other corporate footage. We make sure that our audio quality is just as good, then the video itself. Video without proper audio is not a proper job.

Pros

With Audition mastering tracks for our clients to integrate in their videos is very easy. Multitrack is a huge feature for producing content for radio or TV commercials and productions. Integration with Adobe Premiere makes it the perfect tool for an editor to complete the job.

Cons

Audio Hardware Mapping can be difficult at times. It is a heavy user of computer resources. This has become less over the years, but it still takes a powerful computer to get the best from it.

### "Adobe is king at muisc production... Trust me you don't want to miss"

February 20, 2021

4.0

It's a great software for basic music production and for beginner level... You can still achieve pro work with adobe audition too.

Pros

Low latency in Live mode for podcast and the easy multitrack layout. The tools are just amazingly easy to understand. The mixer section has good send functionality.

Cons

Nothing except the display design. I feel more should be done on giving a pleasing design rather look.

### "The definitive tool for audio works"

July 29, 2021

5.0

I can't complain, it has helped me for many projects and it is quite useful, with time and learning you can get good projects to be published in social media or audio platforms.

Pros

It is a very useful software to cut audios or clean them in case they have a certain level of noise that is uncomfortable. I recommend it for audio work and to complement those who are working on audiovisual projects and want to improve the sound aspect. White noise removal works quite good.

Cons

Requires a powerful computer system, could improve the interface and the application time of the saved settings. Requires a lot of time to get used to.

### "Best Audio Mixing Software"

August 28, 2022

5.0

I always say that a film or video maker can’t do a thing without the moving images’ Holy Trinity, Adobe Premiere, After Effects, and of course Audition. Jumping from one software to another makes your content professional and beautiful.

Pros

What I like most about this product is its ability to work simultaneously on single and multiple tracks; this adds more to its genuine flexibility. I tried once five-channel audio and the results were amazing. Even mixing down the result on a stereo output from it felt deeply atmospheric.

Cons

I didn't find a thing to improve. The software is good as it is.

For most uses, it's difficult to recommend paying for Audition over the free Audacity. But for me it's worth it for the slightly more intuitive workflow.

### "Audition best option to edit audio"

January 16, 2021

Is really great, I edit my podcast there, I made a short intro jingle for my videos and also edit voice over for video production

Pros

What I like the most about using Adobe Audition is its integration with Adobe Premiere, it makes it really easy to work together and link the audios on my videos.

Cons

At the beggining I had some trouble to understand the interface but after seeing some of the tutorials Adobe offers I improve my skills on it

My experience has been really good -- I highly recommend this if you already have and use other programs in the Adobe Creative Sweet

Pros

I love the functionality of Audition -- it has all the bells and whistles you could want from editing podcast and content all the way up to mixing and mastering music.

Cons

It can be a little clunky at times -- the UX/UI of it could be improved a little bit to make it easier to learn.

### "para la grabación para mi Audition es el mejor "

December 18, 2022

5.0

Pros

tengo ya muchísimo usando este programa y empecé a utilizarlo desde que estaba el 1.5 y en aquellos tiempo el 1.5 para mí era el mejor he venido viendo sus camios y mejoras y su gran evolución y creo que desde la facilidad de uso como la calidad de sonido siempre ha ido mejorando.

Cons

no me gusta que se guarde todo lo que se va grabando así sea el track bueno o el malo, sé que tiene la opción de quitar el autoguardado y solo guardar lo que nosotros decidamos pero recuerdo que cuando yo note este gran cambio en adobe no me di cuenta de esta función hasta que ya tenía track por todos lados, y darme cuenta que tenía la opción de quitar el autoguardado me tomo un tiempo de corajes y molestas . más que todo lo digo pensando en los nuevos usuarios.

### "one of the best professional music editing software"

September 10, 2021

4.0

The lower the value the faster the recording playback. accordingly, the higher the cursor on the slider, the slower the sound you will get the same effect as slowing down your voice or recording in general. In fact, all you have to do is select the desired value on the slider click apply to accept all changes and then export your file to the desired folder on your computer.

Pros

high-quality set of filters flexible and accurate editing and preview tools debugging allows you to correct and edit the audio for videos and podcasts allows you to create new sound effects there are all the necessary tools for professional processing of tracks Ability to edit audio in a separate window

Cons

very expensive high system requirements Some formats are not supported by standard, such as Apple QuickTime.
