Adobe Audition for the Mac, an all-in-one professional audio toolset for recording, mixing, editing and mastering, is now available in public beta. You can obtain it at http://www.adobe.com/go/audition_labs .

A de-hummer and de-esser will be new features when Audition for Mac is released. Additionally, a volume leveler will be new when Audition for Mac is released, though it is currently included in Soundbooth.

Jason Levine, Adobe Audition senior worldwide evangelist, told “Mac News” that Audition is the “most commonly encountered computer software” encountered in radio stations and that a Mac version has been requested for over 10 years.

“There’s always been a hole in the Mac platform for audio editing and mastering tool. The Mac version of Audition will be all-new, not just a PC port,” he says. “It’s targeted to broadcast and post-production environments and emphasizes speed and processing. Also, its files will integrate with Adobe Creative Suite 5.”

Just remember that beta software is unfinished software so use with care. A shipping date, pricing or system requirements haven’t been announced for the Mac version of the pro audio editing tool, but Audition 3 for Windows has an estimated street price of US$349.
