Implement ADR tools like Nuendo or the new version 15 of Resolve. Come on Adobe, you must become the industry standard in Audio post.

    Whats the odds that this can be implemented in two weeks so I can use it in class?

     

    ∞ to 1. As good a chance as you getting all the Audition big ticket users to agree, and then persuading Adobe corporate to implement it, and pay heaven knows how much overtime to get it done and tested in a fortnight...

     

    Best joke I've heard all week!

    I was drafted to teach advanced audio to University level film students this fall. With 30 years of experience in film sound, the content is right up my alley. I abandoned the previous teacher's multiple software "exposure" aproach in favor of focusing on their ears and the Adobe suite they all have on their laptops. Now I'm preparing the ADR section and my "OMG this is working!" switched to "WTF? How am I going to teach this?" 

     

    The Automatic Speach Alignment and the elastic capability built into Audition are FREEKING cool!! You have combined several high end tools into an easy to use feature. NICE! We just need the basic ability to set a loop and record to playlists (or sub-tracks, or even a mess of regular tracks) because ADR is more than alignment and so comping remains a very real thing.

    We also need to be able to nudge/advance just the playhead in one-frame increments, regardless of zoom level.

    Loop recording
    Ability to add stereo and mono tracks in one fell swoop (and not multiple calls to Add Tracks)
    MIDI

    The Punch and Roll updates are fine for podcast recording, but they are insufficient for actual ADR to picture.

    Priorities:

    1) Loop Recording
    2) pre and post roll
    3) takes so as to be able to choose which one to use, or to comp between them
    4) visual streamers
    5) beeps

    The lack of loop recording for ADR is meaning that my institution is considering moving to another DAW which is a hassle in several ways and a real loss in my view.

    Film students learn about loop recording as part of the process of filmmaking, regardless of software platform. It is essential to the concept, so it really needs to be prioritized if Audition is to be legitimately involved in audio for video as a specialty. So many other things are excellent! Why is this basic function lacking????

    If you haven't got the v. 12.1 update yet a lot of the asked for features are now included in the new Punch and Roll feature. 🙂

    Priority -
    (1) looping record (or defined regions) to define a "punch in" duration for recording
    (2) preroll/postroll
    (3) "takes" panel - where the recorded takes go (ordered by region)
    (4) rocking' record (after this 'special record' is clicked, play the last two seconds of the timeline and then start recording)
    (4) streamers (visual line that moves across picture - 'record' starts when it hits picture edge) - used to help timing of the record point

    Yes, please add loop record! It's a feature I've been using in Pro Tools since the early 2000's. I'm trying to move my workflow to just Adobe products and am new to using Audition and was shocked that loop recording for ADR doesn't exist yet.

    Pre-roll beeps would also be great.

    The lopping record must be able to make multiple takes on a subtrack, to keep organization, for example you have an actor doing multiple takes, the track is named with the actor's name, there must be a way to deploy the track and show the multiple takes and an easy way to mute clips in order to select best part of each take, also some sort of elastic tool to perfectly align each clip to lip sync. In this video from 0:45 to 5:45 can be seen the ol version of nuendo 5 ADR features. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjBdhFrS5cY

    Also a visual Prerrol Cue and Subtitles is a must. See also this video as a reference. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ml0Rx7HdYGE&t=5s
