A project-based book that deals with Adobe Audition (formerly Cool Edit Pro), included in the Adobe Video Collection, this guide explores creating soundtracks for digital video and demonstrates how to use the software to start recording, editing, and producing immediately. Examined are how to edit, mix, and add built-in effects to AVI soundtracks while watching movie playback, how to clean up poor quality audio with powerful noise reduction tools, and how to use sound effects such as sweetening and mixing. Recording engineers will learn how to customize Audition, record multitrack sessions, transform the multitrack mix into a stereo or surround-sound experience, edit audio files using sample-accurate tools, and mix up to 128 tracks of audio. Working with powerful DSP and analysis tools including DirectX effects is covered, as is importing audio (WAV) files from Adobe Audition into projects created with Adobe Premiere Pro or Adobe After Effects.

This book enables beginners and experienced users of audio editing software to quickly grasp the concepts and techniques used by Adobe Audition to produce audio soundtracks for any application. Along with detailed 'how to' procedures on multitrack recording, digital effects, editing and mastering, this book provides in depth information on the software itself from an established author who is a long term user of the software--from its origins as a shareware wave editor to its latest incarnation as a multitrack recording and editing suite. Adobe Audition is more than a tool for recording and creating jingles, events, effects and soundtracks for any situation--sound technicians and engineers regularly use it as a restoration and archiving tool for cleaning tape or vinyl recordings before remastering to CD or DVD. Adobe Audition is perfect for spoken word or highly sensitive recordings--you can even create sound effects, spooky noises and electronic drum sounds from scratch. And when you are ready to commit, use the detailed explanation of mastering and production techniques to ensure that your Adobe Audition creation sounds just as fresh away from your studio as it did the day you created it.

Electronic musicians and composers will create songs or loops only minutes after launching the software with this guide to FL Studio (formerly Fruity Loops), a complete virtual studio application. How to streamline the recording of multitrack musical compositions is explained in order to create complex songs and realistic guitar loops with 32-bit internal mixing and advanced MIDI support. Musicians are then shown how the resulting song or loop can be exported to a WAV/MP3 file and how MIDI events can be exported to a standard MIDI file. Preparing FL Studio for effective work, carrying out the main operations, building patterns in Step Sequencer, creating a melody in the Piano Roll view, and assembling and mixing a composition using Playlist and Mixer are also described.
