workflow between Premier Pro and Audition during an edit

I have a Premer Pro project which has an edited sequence (lots and lots of small clips) with bad audio. Unfortunately they hadnt done any audio processing before importing into Premier.

ADDITIONAL: I wasn't clear before but I want to be able to edit the raw video before it was cut up so that I can apply all the usual stuff like noise reduction by noise print, normalisation and de-esser.

I want to take the original video file, process the sound from said video file in Audition and then re-import/re-link(?) into the same sequence.

What's the best workflow to do this? Is it just a case of offline the file and relink in after I've done the prcoessing in audition? Or maybe I can do something audition to avoid editing individual clips?

so all the clips come from one file? This might work. quit premiere, duplicate the source file (for safety sake), open the original source file in audition, fix it and save it (may take a little work but the idea is to replace the original file so your fixed file has the same name and hopefully the same properties (frame rate, codec, etc.). Theoretically, when you reopen the project in premiere, all should be well. If not, quit premiere, and rename your copy back to the original file name after moving your modified file and premiere should automatically relink to the original file. Might make sense to test this workflow with a short clip to make sure it works properly

Yeah, I was thinking that but it just seems really clunky. I was wondering if there's a "proper" way others do, my situation can't be unique.

Come to think of it, I suppose the only thing I need to do is to purge any cache/rendered audio files?

Really mgrenadier's method is not that clunky at all; in order to do what you want to do, you'll have to do some variation of this. Either:

Duplicate the original clip, open it in Audition, fix the audio, save it, then re-open the Premiere project and link the clip to the newer version (offline/relink or Replace).
Right-click the clip in Premiere and send it to Audition. Fix the audio, hit save, and it will update in Premiere. Note that Premiere automatically makes a duplicate for you in this instance ("Extracted") so there's no worries about overwriting the original clip. However, you may run into issues where any timeline audio pulled from the orginal clip with bad audio still link back to it and not the fixed version, so you'd wind up having to manually relink all the bad clips to the update one.

You can "send" a clip or sequence to Audition from Premiere. Right-click and select edit/open in Audition. Fix the audio and save it from Audition. Export back to Premiere.

Hey Neil. Thanks for the suggestion but it's not quite what I wanted, I amended my original post to clarify. THinking about it, I guess there must be a way to nest a load of audio clips from a timeline together and apply it to that group in Audition?
