ADOBE AUDITION 3.0

User Guide

Zooming and navigating a Phase Analysis graph

Analyze amplitude

In Edit View, you can use the Amplitude Statistics dialog box to evaluate a variety of information about audio

amplitude.

1 In Edit View, select an audio range.

2 Choose Window > Amplitude Statistics, and view the following:

• The General tab displays numerical text boxes that indicate dynamic range, identify clipped samples, and note any

DC offset.

• The Histogram tab displays a graph that shows the relative prevalence of each amplitude: The horizontal ruler

measures amplitude in decibels, and the vertical ruler measures prevalence using the RMS formula. Select Left or

Right to display either the left or right channel in the foreground.

Use the Histogram tab to identify prevalent amplitudes, and then compress, limit, or normalize them with an

amplitude effect.
