Editing Audio
Working with cues
Cues are locations in a waveform that you define. Using cues makes it easy to navigate
within a waveform in order to make a selection, perform edits, or play back audio.
About cues
In Adobe Audition, a cue can be either a point or a range. A point refers to an exact position
within a waveform (for instance, 1:08.566 from the start of the wave). A range has both a
start time and an end time (for example, all of the waveform from 1:08.566 to 3:07.379).
If a cue is a range, you can drag its beginning and end points to different times.
Cues have triangular handles that appear at the top and bottom of the waveform display.
You use cue handles to select and adjust cues. You can also right-click a cue handle to view
commands for working with cues.
Examples of cues
A. Cue handle B. Cue point C. Cue range D. Nonsplit cue range
Note: To preserve cues when you save a file, make sure that you select Save Extra Non-Audio
Information.
Defining and selecting cues
You use the Cue List window to define and select cues. You can also define cues by using
context commands and keyboard shortcuts.
To display the Cue List:
Choose Window > Cue List. Alternatively, click the Hide/Show Cue List button
in the
toolbar.
