Workflow
Workflow overview
Adobe Audition provides three distinct views, each optimized for unique audio workflows:
In Edit View, you modify individual audio files, optimizing them for radio broadcast, the Internet, and audio CDs.
In Multitrack View, you layer multiple audio files, mixing them together to create sophisticated musical composi-
tions and video soundtracks.
In CD View, you assemble audio files and convert them into tracks on audio CDs.
With the integrated environment of Adobe Audition, you can move seamlessly between these views, simultaneously
editing and mixing files to create polished, professional audio. This integrated environment extends to Adobe video
applications, where you can easily incorporate Adobe Audition into comprehensive video-editing workflows.

In Edit View, you edit, restore, and enhance individual audio files, such as voiceovers, old vinyl recordings, and more.
Any saved changes are permanent, making Edit View a great choice for mastering and finalizing files. (See “Editing
audio files” on page 65.)
Open or create a file
Open an existing audio file that you want to modify. Alternatively, create a blank file that youll record or paste audio
into. (See “Opening audio files in Edit View” on page 43.)
