Default Can you help with Cool Edit/Audition?

1. Exit Audition and go into the folder where the original music bed
file is
2. Move the file to a different folder
3. Start Audition again, and open your session. It should come up with
a dialog box saying something to the effect of "can't find file:
"my_music_bed.wav" locate manually"
4. Select the new music bed file, and it will drop it into the place
of the old file with envelopes intact.

What we're doing here is fooling Audition into thinking the file's
location just moved, when in fact, you are replacing it.

Greetings. I have a question about Cool Edit/Adobe Audition that I
hope someone can help me with. Here goes:

I have just upgraded from Cool Edit 2000 to Adobe Audition. I have a
small telephone message-on-hold business. As you can imagine, an
on-hold-message "Session" is pretty simple. I bring the music bed
into Track 1, and the voiceovers into Track 2. I use "Volume
Envelopes" to bring the music down when the announcer cuts in, and I
use "Volume Envelopes" to bring the music level back up when the
announcer stops speaking.

So here's the scenario: I have an existing Session with the music
bed in Track 1 and the Volume Envelopes taking the music level up and
down. I have the production to the point that the ups/downs line up
perfectly with the voiceovers in Track 2. Now, I am ready to Mix
Down. However, after all this work, I decide that I do not like the
music bed. So I want to bring in a different music bed, but I WANT
TO PRESERVE THE VOLUME POINTS found on the original music bed.

Is there a way to delete the original bed, leave the volume points in
place, and bring in a new bed that assumes the volume points?

The way it is now, if I delete the original music bed it deletes the
volume points as well.

How can I accomplish this? Thanks for your input in advance.


I have no idea. Sorry.
