Adobe Audition Comments

about Adobe Audition · Dec 2017 · Helpful Not helpful Report as spam

It doesn't have either MIDI or ReWire support so it's mostly useless for musicians. You could almost say it's a prettier version of Audacity but it's wave editing capabilities are much more superior.

surroundrive · Sep 2018

Thank you! My point exactly on another post. Who are the idiots running this site that approve these completely unrelated alternatives? Audition is not a music production or scoring Daw. This solution is absolutely useless for musicians because it wasn't made to produce music. The only alternatives to Audition are Nuendo and Fairlight. This is a film audio post Daw specifically made to work with film audio. This is what happens when you give idiots a bit of power and a voice.
