Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Audition

I have used Adobe Audition at several companies, all for similar purposes. My primary use for it is to record, edit, and clean up audio files to be used with training videos I make. It allowed for me to make professional quality audio recordings without having to invest heavily in studio time, or in studio equipment.
  • Easy to use.
  • Unmatched quality.
  • Better documentation.
  • Ability to add/work with a DAW.
  • Time saved by using Audition over other products likely saved about 45 man hours over a single quarter.
  • Audition is part of the Adobe CC Suite, so no additional software costs are incurred.
It has been a few years since I used it, but Audacity is limited in scope compared to Audition, and doesn't integrate seamlessly with Premier. Audition's filtering tools are superior, and allow for cleaner audio with less hands on work. Audition is also platform independent, and works the same whether you are on PC or Mac, whereas Audacity works on both platforms, it is very much like having two different programs, both in UI and in capability.
I gave this category an 8 out 10 because it is probably the place where Audition is lacking. Audition, like many Adobe products could have better documentation. While there is ample training available through Adobe, much of it for free, this software would benefit from a good, downloadable and searchable PDF guide or printed documentation for reference when you are offline.

Being able to incorporate/integrates Audition with Premiere makes adding audio to video projects easy. Premiere allows you to edit the original audio file in Audition, and it will automatically update in your video project without having to delete the original file and import the new file. This saves an enormous amount of time and makes editing on the fly super easy and intuitive.
