Summary: Would be better without flaws
Comment: When following lessons to the letter I found that some of the results expected are not achieved due to the book differing from the actual sample files on the accompanying CD. Truly these are errors in publication (I found similar errors in the Photoshop Classroom In A Book and got those confirmed by Adobe and the book publisher).

Publishing an instructional guide with errors is quite frustrating when wanting to take the time to learn the product. I don't know if they corrected these in the 2.0 release, just be forewarned....

Summary: A sound training investment.
Comment: An excellent book for getting up to speed with this program. I had never used this program before and this Classroom in a Book series walked me through the main features in a very logical step by step fashion that was both easy to follow and understand. I'm sure that there are other books that may cover this program in a more in-depth manner, but you need to get a good handle on the core features and this book does exactly that.

Summary: Cookie-cutter experience
Comment: This is an uninteresting paint-by-the-numbers experience of clicking the the mouse to make things happen to canned material, without empowering you to use the software with your own projects. Well written and illustrated, but of little value.

Summary: Not Great, but definitely Good
Comment: A good book for beginners. I found it helpful in most questions I had about the software. I think a better "Tips and Tricks" section would be the difference between 4 and 5 stars. Good book overall. Definitely worth the money. Ross at MountainWhispers.com Audiobooks

Summary: Great book!
Comment: There doesn't seem to be a lot out there for Audition to help Audition newbies like myself. Fortunately there is this book! It is well written and has taken a lot of the mystery out of the program. I'm sure that there is much more to learn, but this book does a good job of covering enough material to get one started with the program. A drawback would be the price -- it's not a large book, and seems pricey for the amount of material covered. The price of all Adobe Press materials are generally a little high in my opinion anyway. Amazon does offer a better price than most bookstores! This book has a "Getting Started" section, "Quick Tour", "Audition Basics", and 14 other chapters which cover just enough material to be easily absorbed. I like the approach this boook uses -- step by step detailed lessons. The book has a cd which contains lesson files to assist with the lessons. I have no complaints (other than the price). If you want to start learning Audition, this is a good book to consider!


Editorial Reviews:

When Adobe acquired Syntrillium Software's digital audio editing software Cool Edit Pro, gave it a new name (Audition), and added content-sharing capabilities for Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects, it filled a big void in its home-studio software lineup. Here, to get you using Audition to create and edit audio tracks for your film, video, and DVD projects, is a self-paced guide from the instructional design experts at Adobe. Through a series of hands-on lessons, this comprehensive volume takes you step by step through Audition's enormous feature set, including its capabilities for recording, mixing, analyzing, looping, editing, and mastering audio. Each lesson builds on the last and includes a project you can create using the files on the accompanying CD. Review questions reinforce what you've learned so that by the end of the volume, you should have a solid mastery of Audition's noise reduction and audio restoration features, sophisticated spectrum and phase--analysis tools, extensive sound-editing capabilities, high-quality effects, and more.
