Playing audio by using the Windows Run command
You can start Adobe Audition and begin playing a file by using the Windows Run command.

For example, type the following to play the TalkBackVerb loop file:
"c:\Program Files\Adobe\Audition 1.5\Audition.exe" "c:\Program
Files\Adobe\Audition 1.5\Audition Theme\TalkBackVerb.cel"
