Sorry, don't understand the question - you will have to be rather more explicit in terms of what you want to achieve.

[ismauy]

yes, sure

I would like to know any recommendations for replacing the Tab to Transient tool containing ProTools in the Adobe Audition

[SteveG_AudioMasters_]

Audition isn't ProTools. What on earth does a Tab to Transient tool do?

Don't worry - I looked it up. This is a typical music editing function that you'd find in music creation software. Audition isn't music creation software - it's a general audio editor, much more oriented towards audio for video and podcasts these days, and this sort of functionality doesn't exist within it - nor I think is it likely to in the future. So - sorry, there's no possibility of doing what the ProTools one does.

it is clear that Adobe Audition is not ProTools, so I ask if there is any similar tool in AA

maybe someone in the room knows about it

thanks anyway for your answer

[SteveG_AudioMasters_]

If anybody here would know, it would be me. And it doesn't exist.

This function is particularly useful when working with transient-oriented material such as drums and percussion. What this does, is simply “scanning” for transients on the audio clip so that the playback position will be located at each “transient” every time we press the tab key on the keyboard.

I would like just to know how to achieve that on AA, I hope someone else knows what am I talking about.

thanks anyway for your support

Look, I know exactly what you are talking about - I looked it up. Audition does not have any functionality like that at all. The closest it has is the 'Mark Audio' function in Diagnostics, and even though it would mark beats (if there was nothing else on the track), that would be all it would do - provide markers at beat points. There is no other functionality to manipulate the positions of anything you mark in the way that ProTools does. And I suggest that you do not hold your breath waiting for anybody else to tell you otherwise; things don't suddenly magic out of nowhere just because you are persistent.

[ismauy]

I'm not persistent in the terms that you suggest, I've only asked once and I'm waiting for an answer that helps, maybe it will come or maybe not
I hope that someone more earthy can offer an alternative how to achieve it

have a nice day and thanks again for replying

SteveG is right when he says Audtion isn't meant to be ProTools, it's not designed for music, and is meant for dialog and mixing. I bet if you hadn't called the function by its proper name (tab to transient) he might have been a little more patient with the whole affair. I'm working on something tonight that would benefit from it tremendously: editing an audiobook. I sent the author an SM7, Cloudlifter and a MixPre 3 and instructed them to clap loudly anytime they intended to re-start the previous phrase. I'm not sure anyone else uses this clapping workflow, but so far it's been working extremeley well.` I'm assembling the book in Premiere, but doing some cleanup first in Audition (the MixPre records in 32bit float, which is an INSANE format that, when gained up or down in Audition, completely forgives super quiet or super distorted audio). I'm also adding markers in Audition, expecting they'll translate to Premiere. It would be extremely convenient if I could tab through the files - either to transients or to peaks which exceed a certain threshold.

many thanks davidaRiceHere.

from his first answer (SteveG) it was clear that it was not going to help, sometimes it is easier to deny than to assume that you do not know the answer.
thanks to you for your time to explain and look for a solution, that's how communities work, without gods on a pedestal with giant egos and small ... 😉
have a nice day

Is there a way to jump from marker to marker with the playhead?

Alt+right goes forward, Alt+left goes back.
