Adobe Audition for Mac confirmed
Filed under: SoftwareYour choices for premium audio editing on the Mac are soon to gain a most welcome addition. Adobe has announced that its all-things-audio editing software, Adobe Audition, will soon be making its way to the Mac platform. While the company hasn't yet announced an official release date for the product, there will be a public beta made available. Apparently Adobe wants to get some feedback from the end-user community before putting the spit and polish on the released product. Those interested in participating in the public beta can do so by signing up at Adobe Labs. You'll be notified when the beta is available, which is said to be sometime this winter. Not that this will be a concern to many, but in order to use many of the many of the DSP algorithms and processes present in Audition, you'll need a 64-bit processor.

This witch-hunt will hurt Adobe more than Apple
Shall we just ban the Xbox, for fun? Comment There's nothing quite so righteous as a Puritan who suddenly discovers wickedness has been lurking at the heart of the community for years, and embarks on rooting it out to save us all. After years of uncritical coverage, the press pack has decided that Apple is after all, quite wicked. Adobe is stoking the discontent with a lavish - and possibly quite misleading - ad campaign launched yesterday. This is very ill-judged, and the blow-back could be felt across the entire IT industry.…
Adobe's row with Apple escalates
A war of words between the two tech firms escalates as Adobe publishes a critical letter and series of adverts aimed at Apple.
Adobe to Apple: We love you, but...
Filed under: Apple The Apple/Adobe cage match continues with a new campaign from Adobe. We first noticed it on Engadget this morning. It begins with the simple statement "We [heart] Apple" and goes on to say, "We love Flash and HTML 5. We love our 3 million developers. We love authoring code only once. We love all platforms and devices." It then describes what Adobe doesn't love, including "...anybody taking away our freedom to choose what you create, how you create it and what you experience on the web." After clicking through the ad, the user is brought to a page entitled "We [heart] choice" which features a letter from Adobe's founders, Chuck Geschke and John Warnock. Some choice passages include: "If the web fragments into closed systems, if companies put content and applications behind walls, some indeed may thrive - but their success will come at the expense of the very creativity and innovation that has made the Internet a revolutionary force...We believe that consumers should be able to freely access their favorite content and applications, regardless of what computer they have, what browser they like, or what device suits their needs. No company - no matter how big or how creative - should dictate what you can create, how you create it, or what you can experience on the web." In Adobe's view, Apple is telling developers "it's my way or the highway." Apple, on the other hand, believes that Adobe is clinging out outdated, proprietary tools. The fervor began when the original iPhone failed to support Flash (both the iPhone and iPad still don't) and the gloves came off when Steve Jobs published his "thoughts on Flash." Adobe CEO Shantanu Narayen responded in a matter of hours, and the public bickering has continued since. In addition to the web ad, Adobe also has a full page ad in the Washington Post today. Their opinions are so diametrically opposed, it's hard to see how this conflict will come to a resolution.
