Perhaps the ideal setup is to use Soundbooth for quick fix-up jobs and use Audition for more complex audio projects. Soundbooth has the advantage of being easier to learn and simpler to use for certain common tasks. Audition has the advantage of being better in every other way.
Home : Adobe : Comparison : Audition vs Soundbooth. But they are compatible with Audition. Background processing is such a big deal that I'm giving it its own heading. Audition performs most tasks in the background, so you can apply effects, import, batch process, and pre-render effects in the Multitrack view without slowing down or breaking your creative flow. In other words, you can carry on with your editing while Audition works out all the other details in the background.
The Spectral Display in Soundbooth allows you to view audio rather differently than in a waveform. A waveform shows amplitude volume on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis of a long graph. We're so familiar with this way of displaying audio that a simple waveform is sometimes used as a symbol for audio see Figure 9. Figure 9. The Spectral Display displays amplitude as brightness, leaving the vertical axis of the graph free to display frequency see Figure The higher a colored dot is on the display, the higher the frequency, producing a higher tone; the lower the dot, the lower the frequency.
Time is still shown on the horizontal axis. Figure With this graphing feature, you can actually see specific frequencies, and often you can identify sounds such as a telephone ringing or a door closing that you want to remove, selecting the sound with the Photoshop-style tools and getting rid of it. This capability is where Audition shines. Soundbooth allowed you to make a selection in the Spectral Display and then delete it or adjust its volume probably making it quieter.
That option was quite amazing and worthy of great respect. Audition allows you to do the same, but it also has a Photoshop-style Healing Brush tool see Figure 11 that you can use to replace the removed audio with similar frequencies from the surrounding area.
This technological voodoo has limits, of course, just as the Healing Brush in Photoshop has limits, but it's still incredible. Soundbooth had quite a few effects that you could apply to audio, but the workflow in Audition is a big improvement for applying effects. While in Editor view, you can try combinations of effects before committing them to the file. When you click Apply, your original audio is replaced with the modified version see Figure In Multitrack view, the Effects Rack is even more lovely see Figure It looks almost the same as when you're working in Editor mode, but it has two additional modes: Clip and Track.
If you're working in Clip mode, your effects are applied "live," without overwriting the original file. Think of them as "mini-sends" for just that clip segment. If you're working in Track mode, the principle is the same, but now the effects you apply are for the whole track see Figure All of these "real-time effects" give your computer a lot of work to do. Audition makes full use of the power of your system. If you have a multicore CPU or two and plenty of memory, Audition will use it.
It's more efficient for playback on lower-specification machines, too. If you apply lots of effects, and you have a slightly less powerful machine, you can pre-render effects set up on the Effects Rack, temporarily calculating the output of those effects and storing them as a file, meaning that your machine takes almost no effort to play it back. Just click the Pre-Render Track button shown in Figure Let's imagine this feature at work, to get a better sense of what a big deal it is. Suppose you have 15 tracks of audio, and one of them is your main sync source audio recorded voice for a scene in a TV program.
On that voice track, you've added some compression, a little EQ, some real-time noise reduction, and a spatial reverb to create a space around the person speaking. The rest of your tracks are atmospheric sound and specific audio cues, so they don't tax your system for playback too much.
With all the effects applied to your voice track, your system may not be able to play everything without dropping some audio. So you set the Effects Rack to pre-render the track. Your computer is now just playing regular audio files for that track. One of the few effects you won't find on the Effects Rack is the Time and Pitch controls see Figure For many audio editors, the only real job they need their software to do is process some basic cutting, copying, and pasting while adding a few effects here or there.
If you need an immediate audio editing tool, Adobe Audition offers a number of benefits to consider. It offers multitrack editing. Soundbooth never allowed for multitrack editing. You had to edit every individual track instead. It incorporates recording markers.
