Question

Auto arrange clips evenly

Looking for a way in Audition to auto arrange the clips on a track based on the total project time.  Said another way: I have voice messages on track one and music on track two.  I'd like to distribute the time between the voice clips evenly (does not matter how long each clip is).  Is there a tool that accomplishes this, or some way to work with a macro or SDK?   ...would be nice if I could set the lead in/out time.   Any ideas would be appreciated

Sorry, I'm not aware of anybody having developed anything like that.

Can you run scripts in Audition?  The logic would be...

Calculate time between clips:

[Total project time] - ([Intro time buffer] + [Total time of all voice clips] + [End time buffer]) / [Sum of number of voice clips] - 1

Arranging Clips on the track:

Clip1 Time = [Intro time buffer]

Clip2 Time = [Intro time buffer] + [Time Between Clips]

Clip3 Time = [Intro time buffer] + [Time Between Clips] + [Time Between Clips]

etc. ...

Clearly, this would be in a scripting loop, but I'm just trying to get across the idea.  I can program it if there's any way of accessing the API or leveraging the SDK.??

Have a look at this thread: Audition developer and SDK forum 

 

You won't be able to talk to Durin any more as he's left Adobe now.
