Someone is lying to you guys if they're telling you hit records aren't recorded in Adobe Audition. Not to mention TONS of TV Commercials are edited in it. Also used heavily in radio broadcasting. It's far past the "professional" mark you guys are implying exists.
There is no "industry standard". There are more famous and less famopus programs, and in all honesty, numbers don't lie, Logic and FL beat out damn near everything now because they're so entry level friendly...but any program with the functionality of a DAW(SONAR, Audition,
Studio One, Pro Tools, FL, Reason, Live, Samplitude, Saw Studio, ect) is as capable as the next program.
Tutorials don't have to occur within a specified DAW either. I'm gonna apply everything I know about digital multitrack recording to whatever digital multitrack recorder I sit down in front of, even if it's a Roland V-Series Multitrack, even if it's Magix Music Maker. I went from hardware to DAWs and have NEVER sat in front of one I couldn't figure out how to do everything involving recording in within seconds. Sat in front of pleny I can't figure out how to make beats in though, lol.
You're gonna need to know about Routing, busses, channel FX, techniques, ect. in whatever program you use, but they translate to the next program. So if you watch videos on how to record in Pro Tools just apply the same techniques in AA.
