Version 2Īdobe Audition 2 was released on 17 January 2006. Adobe then released Audition v1.5 in May 2004 major improvements over v1 included pitch correction, frequency space editing, a CD project view, basic video editing and integration with Adobe Premiere, as well as several other enhancements. It had bug fixes but no new features, and was essentially a more polished Cool Edit Pro 2.1 under a different name. Versions Version 1Īdobe Audition was released on 18 August 2003. Adobe then changed the name of Cool Edit Pro to 'Adobe Audition'. Cool Edit also included plugins such as noise reduction and FFT equalization.Īdobe purchased Cool Edit Pro from Syntrillium Software in May 2003 for $16.5 million as well as a large loop library called 'Loopology'.

Cool Edit Pro v2 added support for real-time non-destructive processing, and v2.1 added support for surround sound mixing and unlimited simultaneous tracks (up to the limit imposed by the actual computer hardware).

Audio processing, however, was done in a destructive manner (at the time, most computers were not powerful enough in terms of processor performance and memory capacity to perform non-destructive operations in real time). Syntrillium later released Cool Edit Pro, which added the capability to work with multiple tracks, as well as other features. The full version was useful and flexible, particularly for its time. Originally developed by Syntrillium as Cool Edit, the program was distributed as crippleware for Windows computers. Syntrillium Software was founded in the early 1990s by Robert Ellison and David Johnston, both former Microsoft employees.
