Adobe Soundbooth is a digital audio editor by Adobe Systems for Mac OS X and Windows XP and Vista. Adobe has described it as being "in the spirit of Sound Edit 16 and Cool Edit 2000". Soundbooth is not replacing Adobe Audition, rather creating a product for creative professionals who do not specialize in audio. Audition will still be available for audio professionals, and will continue to be developed. Due to Intel-specific code, Adobe has stated that the Mac OS X version will only be available for machines using Intel processors.

Criticism

Many users have commented on the lack of simple features that were found in programs like Sound Edit 16 and Cool Edit Pro; for example, the ability to create a new file or to "reverse" a sound.

Adobe hopes to address some of these criticisms in the Soundbooth CS4 release.
