Adobe Audition
An Audition subscription may be purchased as a stand-alone product or part of Adobe's Creative Cloud subscription. Those in the industry may recall Cool Edit Pro, a program lauded for its ease of use and extensive feature list. In 2003, Adobe acquired Syntrillium and developed Audition as a spiritual successor to that software.
Even though Adobe Audition is primarily designed for podcast creation, you can still use it for musical purposes despite the lack of MIDI support. For example, a track can be isolated from the rest in Adobe's DAW so that you can work on it to remove the background hum. Audition's dynamic noise reduction feature makes it easy to get rid of a buzzing sound: it allows you to choose a quiet part, and Audition will use this reference to remove any frequencies that cause noises.
There is a good chance Adobe Audition is already installed on your computer if you have the Creative Cloud subscription already. It is an excellent toolkit for audio engineering; however, better solutions are available elsewhere if you are looking for music composition.
Pros:
- User-friendly interface
- Multiple Creative Cloud benefits
Cons:
- Required subscriptions
- Lacking MIDI support
