Rack Preset Controls
Rack Preset controls are one of the controls
shared by the Waveform and Multitrack
editors in Adobe Audition’s Effects Rack. It
provides rack presets that store groups of
effects and settings. To apply a preset, you
can choose it from the Presets menu
Definition of
Effect Slots
In the Effects Slots, you manage groups of
effects by using individual effect slots. Each
file has 10 effect slots. To add effects to the
rack, you can choose a preset in the Presets
menu or open the Effects pop-up menu (on
the right of each slot) and locate the effect.
Definition of
Level Controls
To optimize volume, you can adjust Input
and Output levels so their meters peak
without clipping. To change the
percentage of processed audio, you can
drag the Mix slider. 100% (Wet) equals
fully processed audio; 0% (Dry) equals
original, unprocessed audio.
Definition of

main Power button in the lower left
corner of a rack. You can also click the
FX power button in the Editor panel or
Mixer. To bypass a selected group of

State of Selected Effects from the panel
