1.0 out of 5 stars Overpriced, buggy piece of crap. Audition 1.5 was better., February 10, 2006
By 
Marc Valhara (The South. God's country.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Adobe Audition 2.0 [OLD VERSION] (CD-ROM)
If, like myself, you have many DX and VST plug-ins installed on your system, then Audition 2.0 is definitely NOT the choice with you. Somehow, the idiots who made this junk have made it completely incompatible with 3rd-party plugs such as Waves Diamond Bundle. Oddly enough, this was not a problem in earlier editions of Audition, or its former incarnation, CoolEdit. But now, Audition crashes irrevocably when trying to use many VST and DX plugs (except, of course, the ones made by Adobe themselves.)

Bottom line? This software is crap. Absolute crap. If you're serious about audio production, go with Wavelab. Heck, even free multitrack audio software like Kristal works better than this.

If, for some reason, you absolutely need Audition, then go with an earlier, more stable version, such as 1.5.

2.0 is about as useful as a football bat.

1.0 out of 5 stars Garbage. Don't buy it, November 18, 2006
This review is from: Adobe Audition 2.0 [OLD VERSION] (CD-ROM)
I agree with the other reviews this is a horrible piece of software. I am a software developer and have written some serious applications in my career, and this one ranks at the bottom of the barrel.

I have a stock Dell XP machine, and after a 15-minute install, Audition 2.0 crashes every time on startup. I never even got it to run. Tried calling Adobe support -- useless...waited 35 minutes on hold then hung up. Search of Google groups for answers revealed nothing, as did their support site.

I *loved* Cool Edit 2000, and even Audition 1.5 to some degree. This new version is what happens when too many engineers get put on a project. It's a remnant of a once great application. Avoid it like the plague.

3.0 out of 5 stars Huge step backwards from version 1.5, April 15, 2007
This review is from: Adobe Audition 2.0 [OLD VERSION] (CD-ROM)
I'm rating this program 3 stars because it's still a phenomenal value in comparison to its competition. That being said, I think 2.0's big increases in speed and ability to mix non-destructively come at far too big a cost.

There are several key changes that are terrible mistakes in this version. The new direct-to-file recording is an enormous waste and very, very confusing as it automatically names new clips before you record them. And there's no way to turn it off.

Violating a very basic concept of digital audio workflow, Audition 2.0 now requires you to manually make each and every clip play when it overlaps another even by a single sample. This is utter insanity.

And there are other huge performance issues here and there. ASIO implementation is strange (the application won't share native drivers with other applications -- an enormous problem if you want to run a sequencer or softsynth alongside Audition). It's nice to have VST support, but preview simply DOES NOT WORK with these effects, even on the extremely powerful machine I'm using it on.

And why do Adobe products use their own keyboard shortcuts, in total violation of every Windows convention? Things like the "Save As" shortcuts should never, ever be unique to an application.

Bad move here, Adobe. Let's hope 2.1 fixes some of these issues.
