Hello!
It would be very useful and necessary to have the possibility to create Bins in the audition Project panel. There are sessions with many files. Having the option to create bins as in Premiere or After Effects would be more ordered.
Thank you

And I thought it was just me being an idiot in not being able to figure out how to create folders/bins in Audition.... How could they actually leave out that feature? And why??

Editing my first podcast in Audition. Coming from a video editing background. I have CC and use Premiere, Photoshop and AE all the time. Ready to dump Audition for Audacity on this first podcast edit entirely b/c of its lack of any real file organizing feature...

It really is mind boggling that Adobe has not implemented Folders/Bins structure for Audition. Media management is an integral part of any successful creative process no matter what level the user is at.

Audition is a really great program but its important to remember it lives in a crowded field with such DAW's as Protools, Logic, Ableton, Audacity, Reason etc. Adobe runs the gamut though with its other software, Aftereffects, Photoshop, Premiere, and Illustrator just to name a few. One would think that Audition would be seen as a great opportunity to expand and monopolize their platform.

It's apparent at this point that adding folders/bins to Audition is no easy fix and may be beyond Adobe's interest and capabilities but I'm still holding out.

Right at this very moment I'm working on a project in Audition. Why is this under review. It is an obvious defect in design. Basically take everything in PPro 2019 project management and bin and search and put it in audition, as it is applicable. Bins, sub bins, hide, meta markup, etc, project management, search...

Add bins (or folders) to Files window. When adds many files to multitrack projects it's very hard to use it. In premiere we have bins many time.

Preparing the production of a larger docu-podcast for my news organization now. Planned to start using Audition for this project, but now more likely switching to Final Cut (which I already know well). Yes, a video editor, with audio tools not nearly as powerful as Audition. But I fear Auditions lack of ability to organize my several hundred audio files simply will cost me too much time.

we hope they will. having folders and organizing files well would be very functional

Yes this is a critical update. We are trying to work between multiple projects so having them all together with folders would be a huge productivity savings.

I bet there is some underlying political decision behind the obvious fact that there is no folder-structure/bins in Audition. It smells exactly like it did with Speed Grade, and I wouldn't be surprised if Audition gets thrown out soon in favour of "all cool audio-tools in Premiere".

If any Adobe-rep claims "It's technically complicated", that rep is just making it up to keep people not jumping ship. Adobe can make a bin-solution within hours if they want to.

The only reason they haven't pulled the plug yet, is because Protools is so ugly. The moment Protools get over to this side of year 2000 (user interface-wize), Adobe will pull the plug.

I love Audition, and use it daily in all my productions. The lack of a file-managing solution drives me crazy, but I just don't see it coming. I really hope I am wrong on this one.

dear god please add this. i'm also about to jump ship because i can't simply rename a file without having to reimport it into every project. it's insane.
