Setting up ReWire connections
ReWire (a product of Propellerhead Software) is a technology for synchronizing audio
applications. You can configure Adobe Audition to accept audio input from any ReWire-
compatible application. When Adobe Audition is configured to accept ReWire input, it is
referred to as a ReWire host. Applications that supply audio input are called ReWire slaves
and the output channels they expose to the host are called devices.
To establish a ReWire connection, you first enable ReWire support in Adobe Audition and
then activate a ReWire slave application and assign output from the slave to one or more
Audition tracks. Adobe Audition serves as a ReWire host until you close the application.
You can also manually disable ReWire support. For more information on using Adobe
Audition as a ReWire host, see “Working with ReWire tracks” on page 184.
Note: Before enabling ReWire in Adobe Audition you must close all other ReWire host and
slave applications. After activating a slave application from within Adobe Audition, you will
launch the application to establish the ReWire connection.
To establish a ReWire connection:
1
In Multitrack view, choose Options > Device Properties and select the ReWire tab.
2
Click Enable. The dialog box automatically populates with a list of installed ReWire
slave applications.
3
Select the check box next to the application you want to activate as a slave.
4
Choose one of the following track assignment options:
•
Insert Summed Stereo Output Into First Available Track. All ReWire devices offer one
summed stereo output. This option routes the summed stereo output into the first
unoccupied track in the current session.
