On your Mac, please click here to download my script.Ģ. My script is written for Mac OSX, it should be possible to implement a similar script on Windows using a program called Auto HotKey.ġ. Just like my scripts that add this functionality to both TwistedWave and Audacity, it is possible to get Audition to do a basic Punch & Roll. It doesn’t require a subscription like Adobe Audition. It runs on more platforms than TwistedWave. It seems to manage memory better than Audacity. With this new native feature OcenAudio sets itself apart from other simple editors and earns a spot closer to that of a traditional DAW (Digital Audio Workstation).

So, if you forget to turn on the second checkbox you will find the program inserting your new audio before your flub instead of writing over the mistake that you wish to replace. Like the programs that I scripted, OcenAudio doesn’t have true non-destructive editing (for that you’d need Reaper, ProTools, Logic Pro, etc). With these three settings enabled, OcenAudio does natively what my scripts for TwistedWave, Audacity, and Adobe Audition attempt to bolt on from the outside.

The configuration is as simple as enabling 3 Checkboxes in the preference window: Isn’t it great to find a developer that really listens to the needs of the users? OcenAudio comes through with a feature that I mentioned to them back when I interviewed them in May of 2014. For free on all Macs, Windows, and Linux computers. Just simple, straight forward, Punch & Roll recording.
