ADOBE AUDITION 3.0

User Guide

How Adobe Audition digitizes audio

When you record audio in Adobe Audition, the sound card starts the recording process and specifies what sample

rate and bit depth to use. Through Line In or Microphone In ports, the sound card receives analog audio and digitally

samples it at the specified rate. Adobe Audition stores each sample in sequence until you stop recording.

When you play a file in Adobe Audition, the process happens in reverse. Adobe Audition sends a series of digital

samples to the sound card. The card reconstructs the original waveform and sends it as an analog signal through Line

Out ports to your speakers.

To summarize, the process of digitizing audio starts with a pressure wave in the air. A microphone converts this

pressure wave into voltage changes. A sound card converts these voltage changes into digital samples. After analog

sound becomes digital audio, Adobe Audition can record, edit, process, and mix it—the possibilities are limited only

by your imagination.
