Looking at the Work Area
File Size)
Represents how large the active audio file is, measured in kilobytes. If you see
308 K in the Status Bar, then the current waveform or session is 308 kilobytes (KB) in size.
File Size (time)
Shows you the length (measured in time) of the current waveform or
session. For example, 0:01:247 means the waveform or session is 1.247 seconds long.
Free Space
In Edit View and Multitrack View, shows how much space is available on your
hard drive. In CD Project View, shows how much space remains on a CD based on which
View menu item is selected: 74 min CD or 80 min CD.
Free Space (time)
In Edit View and Multitrack View, displays the amount of available time
left for recording, based upon the currently selected sample rate. This value is shown as
minutes, seconds, and thousandths of seconds. For example, if Adobe Audition is set to
record an 8-bit mono waveform at 11,025 kHz, the time left might read something like
4399:15.527 free. Change the recording options to 16-bit stereo at 44,100 kHz, and the
remaining time value becomes 680:44.736 free.
In CD Project View, shows how much space remains on a CD based on which View menu
item is selected: 74 min CD or 80 min CD.
Keyboard Modifiers
Displays the status of your keyboard’s Ctrl, Shift, and Alt keys.
SMPTE Slave Stability
Indicates the stability of incoming SMPTE timecode compared to
Adobe Audition’s internal clock. For example, 95.0% SMPTE indicate a very strong
SMPTE signal. Percentages above 80% should be stable enough to maintain sync. For
more information on SMPTE synchronization, see “Setting up for SMPTE synchroni-
zation” on page 40 and “Using sessions as SMPTE masters or slaves” on page 166.
Undoing and redoing changes
Adobe Audition keeps track of the edits you perform during the course of an editing session.
These changes are stored in a temporary file on your hard drive. They aren’t permanently
applied to the file until you save and close it, giving you unlimited undo and redo capability.
When you work with very large audio files, you might not have enough free disk space to
save the Undo data before continuing with an edit. In addition, the time required to save
the Undo information might slow down your work. You can solve either problem by
disabling the Undo function.
