Effects Menu – Edit View
View all Settings in dB When checked, amplification values are entered and shown in decibels; otherwise they’re entered
as a percentage of the original waveform.
Presets Adobe Audition comes with a nice selection of amplification presets including several fades and pans. More
information on presets can be found in the “Looking at the Work Area” chapter.
Preview Press the Preview button to audition the selected amplification setting before you apply it to the waveform. The
selection is played over and over (“looped”) until you press the Stop button. Since Adobe Audition’s Previews are
dynamic, this gives you the opportunity to make and hear amplification adjustments as the selection is looped. Check
the Bypass box to hear the waveform without any changes in amplification for a quick “before and after” comparison.
Channel Mixer dialog
Binaural Auto-Panner
The Binaural Auto-Panner spatially locates the audio left and right, in a circular pattern over time. In order to spatially
encode the signal, either the left or right channel is delayed so that the sounds will appear at each ear at different times,
tricking the brain into thinking they are coming from either side.
