Adobe Audition shortcuts for Mac

Key Adobe Audition shortcuts include Space to play/stop, Cmd+S to save, and I/O to set in and out points. Use Shift+Cmd+N to create a new multitrack session, D to toggle the selection tool, and R to activate the razor tool for splitting clips.

Use the waveform editor (double-click a file) for destructive edits and the multitrack view (Edit > Multitrack) for non-destructive mixing. Press Cmd+A to select all, Cmd+C/V to copy and paste audio, and Delete to remove a selection. Use Cmd+Z to undo any edits.

Select a portion of audio, then go to the Effects menu or use the Effects Rack panel. Press Cmd+Shift+E to open the Effects Rack. You can preview effects in real-time before applying them by clicking the play button in the effect dialog.

If shortcuts aren't working in Adobe Audition, go to Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts and verify your key assignments. Ensure you're in the correct workspace (Waveform vs. Multitrack), as some shortcuts are workspace-specific. Resetting to the Default Set in the keyboard shortcuts dialog can resolve conflicts.
