Adobe Audition Worksheets

Introduction

In this project, you will begin using Adobe Audition to create and re-create sound effects. At the end of this worksheet you should be able to navigate the software and understand the different views/sections seen on the screen. Also, you should be able to use some of the basic tools that Audition has to offer in order to clean up simple sound files. Finally, using the tools learned, you should be able to recognize the simple finesse that can be added to a sound design.

In order to play along, you’ll need to download this ZIP file of sound effects.

If ever you need more information on any of these tools, you can view the Audition manual online at:
