Adobe's DAW offers single- or multi-track editing, but clicking on a track isolates it from the others so you can work on it, say to clean up background hum. Audition is the spiritual successor to that app, created after Adobe bought Syntrillium in 2003.Īudition is geared toward podcast production rather than musical use, but there's no reason it couldn't be used for that even though there's no MIDI support - you can still import samples. Those who have been in the business a long time may remember Cool Edit Pro, an app admired for its simplicity and large number of features. It also uses something called destructive editing, which means that any changes you make will overwrite the previous version of your audio.Īudition is Adobe's podcast creation app, available as a standalone subscription or as part of the full Creative Cloud suite of apps. This is because it’s primarily an audio editor, rather than a fully fledged digital audio workstation.

However, it is definitely geared towards people who are recording clips for podcasts and voice overs, rather than anyone who wants to make multi-track music. The software also allows you to easily import sound from video clips and it even packs in tools that analyse sound frequency. The program makes it easy to connect and set up external equipment, record, edit and mix tracks, and polish your work before exporting it. Its simple interface means that it’s perfect for beginners. On top of that, it’s compatible with all the main operating systems: MacOS, Windows 10 and Linux. It’s a completely free tool, but it still packs in all of the features you need from a high-end voice recorder. This is one of the most popular audio and voice editing programs currently available – and for good reason.
