Audition

A feature to try out different clips or effects in the context of a project.

What is an audition in ScreenFlow?

An audition in ScreenFlow is a feature that allows you to try out different media clips in your project without permanently placing them on the timeline. This feature is particularly useful when you're unsure about which clip would best fit a particular part of your project. You can select multiple clips to "audition" for a spot on your timeline, preview them in place, and then choose the one that works best.

To use the audition feature, you simply select the clips you want to audition, right-click and choose "Add to Audition." The clips will appear in a separate audition window where you can preview them in the context of your project. Once you've decided on the best clip, you can drag it to the timeline to replace the current clip. This feature makes it easy to experiment with different options without disrupting your existing work.

How to use Audition in ScreenFlow?

ScreenFlow is a video editing and screen recording software that does not directly incorporate Adobe Audition. However, you can use Adobe Audition to edit your audio files before importing them into ScreenFlow for further video editing.

First, record your audio in Adobe Audition and make all necessary edits such as noise reduction, equalization, compression, etc. Once you're satisfied with the audio, export it as a .wav or .mp3 file. Then, open your ScreenFlow project and import the edited audio file. You can do this by going to the "File" menu, selecting "Import Media", and then choosing your audio file. Once the file is imported, you can drag and drop it onto your timeline and sync it with your video.

Remember, Adobe Audition and ScreenFlow are separate software applications, so you'll need to have both installed on your computer to use them together. Also, always save your work regularly in both applications to prevent any loss of data.
