Audition CC: Your Toolkit for Exceptional Audio
With the latest release of Creative Cloud, getting started in Audition CC is easier than ever. With a new panel for audio newbies, you can quickly get up to speed with key skills and best practices for getting the most out of Audition. Access deeply integrated tutorial walkthroughs without ever leaving the application. If you don't see the panel automatically, find it in the help menu.
This release also brings a new User Interface. You'll see this gorgeous, flat UI in our updates, but expect the experience to unify the look-and-feel of Adobe's tools across the spectrum, from desktop to mobile and web. With all-new vector-based icons, the UI elements should look sharp at any display resolution.
A peek behind the curtain would expose a lot of goings-on with effect plug-ins. Not only will you see updates to many of our classic plug-ins to fully support High DPI displays, but the audio team has shared several Audition-only audio effects with Premiere Pro including Adaptive Noise Reduction, Parametric EQ, Automatic Click Removal, Studio Reverb, and even the top-tier Dynamics Processing compressor/expander. Video editors will now be able to drop these effects on their clips without leaving the comfort of their NLE timeline.

With a new panel for audio newbies, you can quickly get up to speed with key skills and best practices for getting the most out of Audition. Access deeply integrated tutorial walkthroughs without ever leaving the application. If you don't see the panel automatically, find it in the help menu.
This release also brings a new User Interface. You'll see this gorgeous, flat UI in our updates, but expect the experience to unify the look-and-feel of Adobe's tools across the spectrum, from desktop to mobile and web. With all-new vector-based icons, the UI elements should look sharp at any display resolution.
A peek behind the curtain would expose a lot of goings-on with effect plug-ins. Not only will you see updates to many of our classic plug-ins to fully support High DPI displays, but the audio team has shared several Audition-only audio effects with Premiere Pro including Adaptive Noise Reduction, Parametric EQ, Automatic Click Removal, Studio Reverb, and even the top-tier Dynamics Processing compressor/expander. Video editors will now be able to drop these effects on their clips without leaving the comfort of their NLE timeline.
