Adobe Audition 3.0

Insert an audio file into a session

When you insert an audio file in Multitrack View, the file becomes an audio clip on the selected track. If you insert several files at once, or a single file that’s longer than the space available on the selected track, Adobe Audition inserts new clips on the nearest empty tracks.
Note: For Broadcast Wave files, Adobe Audition can use the embedded timestamp to place files at the proper start times. (See Spot insert a Broadcast Wave file into a session.)
  1. In Multitrack View, select a track, and then place the start‑time indicator at the desired time position.
  2. Do one of the following:

    • To insert one or more audio files, choose Insert > Audio, select the files, and click Open. (To preview the contents of selected files, click Play or select Auto Play. Select Loop to repeat previews and Stop to end them.)

    • To insert the audio portion of a video file in AVI, MOV, MPEG, or WMV format, choose Insert > Audio From Video, select a file, and click Open.

    • To insert a currently open audio file, choose Insert > [file name].

    • To insert a marker range from an open audio file, choose Insert > File/Marker List. In the window that appears, click the plus sign (+) to list a file’s marker ranges, and select the range you want to add.

    • To insert files from the Files panel, select them, and click the Insert Into Multitrack button , or press the Insert key.
