Pros

I've created so many great masterpieces over the years and love the ease of use. It's easy to understand how it all works, resulting in less valuable time wasted.
It helps me a lot in the process of editing the songs I use in some videos, the integration with Vst's is fantastic and very stable. I recommend this audio editor without a doubt.
Overall its great, even if you are a beginer or proseffional you can get amazing results. I think its the best of its kind for the price you pay and what you get for it.

Pros

I continue to see the full creative potential in my music production thanks to the great features in Cubase, where it has helped me carry out my music production on a more professional level.
The thing I like most about this software is the workflow when it comes to tracking. I feel that the user interface is perfect for that matter in fact.
All in all I feel like everyone who is in the sound engineering industry should be familiar with cubase for is the best in the world.

Cons

In my experience adobe audition is useless and should only be used if you don't have access to another audio daw.
There is no MIDI implementation in Adobe Audition.
The only downside to Audition is the learning curve for interacting with its many many tools.

Cons

The drum machine is clunky, and the endless array of options can get you lost in menus.
There are too many features that I do not need and these pollutes the menus and interface in general.
Cubase's GUI windows seem to have trouble taking on the modern paradigm of fullscreen apps, and windows and viewing parameters often reset themselves. The GUI coding feels old.

Adobe Audition

El.mejor editor de audio digital.

Reviewed 2 years ago

Aunque trabajo con Cubase o Pro tools, ningún editor de audio de esos multipista son tan precisos y eficaces como el adobe audition o el viejo Cool Edit Pro

Pros

La edición de audio y en especial el sistema de noise reduction automático. Lo mejor que tiene.

Cons

El sistema de mezcla es bueno pero la compatibilidad con los plugins ya es muy antigua.

Adobe Audition

A light digital audio workstation - good for simple projects and lots of free sound effects.

Reviewed 3 years ago

Adobe Audition is fine for simpler use cases - for adding sound effects to podcasts and vlogs or simple videos, it's a perfectly good choice. And it's huge library of sounds is very much appreciated. However, for any in depth audio creation or sound composition, it is easily outclassed by most other audio workstations, including Logic Pro, FL and Cubase.

Pros

What I like most about Adobe Audition is its genuinely vast library of royalty-free sound effects, which can be easily acquired and dragged/dropped into an audio project. What also helps is that all of these sound effects that are freely available to use are high quality - something very rarely found in such a simple manner. Often free sound effects vary greatly in quality, so it is great to have so many good quality samples ready to go.

Cons

There are a couple of issues with Adobe Audition. Firstly, because of the sheer amount of good quality useable samples, it can actually be a problem taking the time to sift through them and find which one is most appropriate - merely a problem of having too many options, which isn't a bad problem to have, but it can slow down the process. Secondly, Audition is fairly restricted in its usability. For simpler audio projects (such as adding in a few sound effects to a pre-recorded track - perhaps a podcast or vlog) it is perfectly acceptable, but for any kind of composition or detailed audio creation, it appears to be lacking in features that other audio workstations have as standard. Logic Pro would be a superior choice, but it comes with a bigger price tag.
