Hi, I have just returned from recording my band in studio. Since we are
between recording and mixing I thought I should do some editing to save
time and money. Problem is that I do not have protools on this
computer, only Adobes Audition. Do I need to do the editing in ProTools
in order to continue working on this material in the studio again or is
there an alternative program I could use for this without having to buy
Protools and sound card?

You can import the sound files (tracks) into Audition for
mixing, but you loose any session data that was written
by ProTools.

I'd avoid doing any destructive editing on the original files,
it's better to play with copies and save the ProTools
session tracks and files as backup for use when you get
back to the PT studio.

Or you could just get the M-Box. Its a hellalot cheaper than DigiDesign-001
and works the same. You just have less inputs.

It'll probably be time to go back to the studiio by the time you get
P.Tool's etc. up and running. Why don't you just do some test edits on
what you have and make an Edit list and just edit it on P.Tools when
you get back to the studio.
The most time consuming part of editing on tools is the listening
bit...

if you open the original session and make contiguous soundfiles out of
each track you can then import these files into any 'like' program for
editing/overdubbing. you then bounce each of the edited tracks,
make them all one length and export them to SDII files. make a new
session in PT, import the edited tracks and mix.

granted, a sort of twisted method, but that's the only way i can think
of. i do this on my mac for tracks to go back to a PC guy pretty
regularly in my little studio.

hope this helps,
