Edit Menu – Edit View
Repeat Last Command
Just as you’d expect, this item repeats the last command. Most editing functions in Adobe Audition can be repeated using
this command, but there are a few exceptions (such as Delete).
Set Current Clipboard
Adobe Audition gives you access to five internal clipboards for temporary data storage. Each works similarly to the
Windows clipboard, except without the memory limitations.
Use this command to decide which of Adobe Audition’s five available internal clipboards is active – just check the one
you wish to use. Or, choose Windows to have Adobe Audition use the Windows clipboard. (You’ll want to use the latter
option if you want to copy audio data to other Windows applications.)
Set Current Clipboard Menu
Copy
This command copies the current waveform, or highlighted part of the waveform, to the active clipboard (see Set
Current Clipboard).
Note: Keep in mind that if you want to copy audio to another Windows application, the current clipboard must be set to
Windows. Otherwise, use one of Adobe Audition’s internal clipboards, which are faster and can handle more data.
Cut
Use Cut to remove the current waveform, or highlighted part of the waveform, to the active clipboard.
Paste
Paste inserts data from the active clipboard at the insertion point, or it replaces the currently highlighted data. If the
format of the waveform data on the clipboard is different from the format of the file it’s being pasted into, Adobe
Audition automatically converts it before pasting.
Paste to New
This command creates a new file and inserts waveform data from the active clipboard. The new file automatically inherits
the properties (sample rate, sample frequency, etc.) from the original clipboard material.
