Adobe Audition 3.0

Spot insert a Broadcast Wave file into a session

When you insert a Broadcast Wave (BWF) file into a multitrack session, Adobe Audition can use the embedded timestamp to insert the file at a specific time. This is commonly called spot inserting.

  1. In Multitrack View, do any of the following to use embedded timestamps:

    • Choose Insert > Insert Using BWF Timestamp.

    • Right‑click in the Files panel, and choose Use BWF Time Reference Offset.

    • Click the Multitrack tab in the Preferences dialog box, and select Use BWF Time Reference As Insert Start Time.

  2. In the Main panel, select a track.
  3. Choose Insert > Audio, and select a BWF file.

Adobe Audition inserts an audio clip at the designated start time.

To view or edit the timestamp for a BWF clip, open the clip in Edit View, and then choose File > File Info. Click the Broadcast Wave tab. The timestamp value appears as the Time Reference.
