Working with scripts

Adobe Audition lets you create three types of scripts, depending on the software's state
when you record the script:
Scripts that start from scratch. These scripts start with no waveform opened, and their
•
first command is File > New.
Scripts that work on the currently open waveform. These scripts operate on an entire
•
waveform. They require a waveform to be open, but with no selection made. Actions
begin at the current-time indicator position in the waveform, and they affect any data
