I do use scrubbing when I edit video, but this is mostly because the
video editing software I use does not provide the same quality visual
environment for editing audio that CEP/Audition does. I periodically
export audio from A/V tracks, edit it in CEP, and then put it back,
including restoring lip-synch by hand if necessary.

As a matter of interest which video editing package do you use? I've
tried a few but haven't found the perfect one.

FWIW in the UK ProTools seems to be the editor of choice in the TV
field.

Many years ago I was forced to use Soundscape as a dubbing prog. I
hated it at first being used to AudioFile, but quite quickly got to
like it. With some development (and faster hardware) it could have
been pretty good for semi pro use. I *think* it got bought out by
Behringer - but a quick Google shows nothing.


Certainly in the film business, Avid is pretty much the standard. It is
a bit of a hotchpotch and has some file compatibility issues, but
everyone seems to know it.

Avid is certainly the main picture editing package - and will be used for
simple sound dubbing - but I'm not aware of any dubbing facility using it
for serious stuff. As I said it's ProTools for this these days in the UK.
