Recently there's been a lot of talking on the web about the future of Apple's (pro) video and audio applications. Adobe has some aggressive deals for people switching to Premiere Pro or the Creative Suite (which as you know now includes Audition). There's also great tutorials and technical documents for switching to Premiere Pro as well. However, the audio love gets drowned out by all the other stuff.
So I wanted to focus just on audio and talk about Soundtrack Pro. If any of you are/were fans of Soundtrack Pro. I invite you to download and try out the following files. I noticed on Twitter that there was some speculation about "STP was rolled into FCPX" or "STP functionality will be rolled into Logic" and so forth. Now you can roll STP into Audition which is here to stay. We're already actively working on the next version to address some of the most common requests. You can also get a feel for where our larger pro video and audio business is going, but note that we on the Audition team have some very audio-centric plans as well to more directly address your needs.
File | Info |
---|---|
| Color Scheme and some preferences here and there that are close to Soundtrack Pro's |
| Soundtrack Pro Keyboard Shortcuts added or changed from Soundtrack Pro 3 User Manual |
| Workspace layout that is somewhat similar to Soundtrack Pro's default layout. |
Just copy the attached files to the location shown above. Note that you may want to backup your previous preferences folder (~/Library/Preferences/Adobe/Audition/4.0) in case you'd like to switch back. I just context-clicked on the folder in Finder and chose "Duplicate" to back up mine.
