Audition

Returned to work from vacation to find Audition had updated itself while I was away. New version is 26.0.0.56 Build. When I try to open sessions I produced in Audition 25.3.0.71, Audition comes up with the Can’t find all Media pop-up and wants me to link to the Media. When I try to link media (even if I manually try to link the media by right-clicking on the clip and selecting Link Media, it doesn’t work. I cannot seem to open old sessions with the new 2026 version. In my workplace, (radio station) I have to save all sessions to a OneDrive, accessible to all producers across the country, so anyone can work on anything. I have not tried to open an old session from my local HDD. (yet) I have reverted back to Audition 2025 so I can complete my work. Audition 2025 still opens everything normally… even from the Company OneDrive. 

Over the last few months, when I’m playing through a track, the playback head visually progresses from smooth scrolling to more and more choppy.  It’s starts out fine, then after 3-4 screens-worth of scrolling on the timeline, in my case maybe 20 sec, it slowly gets more and more choppy or laggy.  It’ll look like it’s slightly starting to lag, and progress to the point it looks like it’s jumping 0.5-1 sec increments.  If I switch from multitrack to waveform view then back. It’ll reset to a smooth scroll, then start the process over again.  The same issue occurs in the waveform view.  If I have several tracks in a project, it will immediately start with a choppy scroll, even if all tracks are pre-rendered.  I run Windows 11, have 32GB RAM, and a 14th gen i7 processor 2.8gHz. Audition doesn’t seem to being using an inordinate amount of CPU or memory.   Not sure if there was a windows update that doesn’t jive with the newer versions of Audition?  I used to run v.2022, issues started after

Audition completely unusable. It launches, displays the Learn Panel, and then freezes within 5–10 seconds. The UI becomes unresponsive: Menu items turn gray, the Learn Panel shows a blue highlight border, and the application stops, freezes my entire system & requires a hard reboot. This happens with every single launch, even after “clean” reinstalls and resets!I have fully uninstalled Audition, Creative Cloud, and all other Adobe apps. I have manually deleted all Adobe folders in Program Files, Program Files (x86), AppData, (Local and Roaming) removed leftover CEP, CEF, and WebView2 components, and reinstalled cleanly.Additionally, I have deleted all workspace files (except a custom “NoLearn” workspace created to attempt launching without the Learn Panel,) and edited AuditionPrefs.xml to disable it and set NoLearn as the default. I have deleted recovery files after each crash, and even attempted Shift‑launch to bypass previous sessions.Further, I have renamed Learn Panel extension

Hi there,I'm having trouble finding where to rename my recorded tracks in the most recent edition of adobe audition. Am I missing something very obvious or is this feature no longer available as of Adobe Audition !CC 19 version 12.0.1.34

I’m looking to see if anyone has a solution to get compressed broadcast .wav files that are encoded as MPEG2 audio to also load the XMP metadata for my files.  I’m trying to use the Wide Orbit Radio Automation plugin for .wav files (read and write installed properly) to save the files and we are using compressed MPEG2 audio in a .wav container instead of PCM linear to save space. The test I did with PCM .wav files kept the metadata intact and all of the markers in place for intro,extro,eom, etc. but the compressed version MPEG2 is missing all the markers and metadata. When looking up the header information for the metadata of both files (PCM and MPEG2) in a hex editor, all the info is there, artist, title, duration, intros, extros... Audition just isn’t pulling in the info when loading the file. Has anyone else ran into this issue with Audition CC, I also tried it on Audition 3.0 as I still have a copy of that with the Wide Orbit plugins as well but it won’t even import the MPEG2 audio

On regularly base some (Waves) VST (3) Plug In’s don’t open in Edit (Waveform) or Multitrack mode.When opening Audition fresh start, plug in’s can be used and ALL work perfect. Plugin settings popup window shows up and can be adjusted.After a while working and editing some of them stop working and can’t be opened anymore.For example: After a while working, when ‘Metaflanger’ is selected in waveform-mode via menu ‘Effects/VST 3/Modulation/Waves/Metaflanger Stereo’ or in Multitrack mode in the Effects Rack, nothing happens, the plugin does not run anymore.The plugin’s are installed properly because they initially work (when Audition is started fresh), but some of them (for example ‘MetaFlanger Stereo’, ‘Metafilter Mono’, ‘Metafilter Stereo’, ‘Metafilter Mono’, ‘OVox Stereo’, ‘OVox Stereo/Mono’) stop working/are no longer usable when using Audition for a longer time. The plugin settings popup window doesn’t appear anymore.Other Wave Plugin’s have no problem and still are usable (For examp

When creating a custom poly wave file, channel labels can be selected from a dropdown list, but is there a way to give the channel a custom name that is not in that list?

I just started using Adobe Audition after years of Audacity and FL. It's got some powerful features I like but there is a design choice that I just can not wrap my head around and I think it's gonna make me quit this program if I don't find a solution: Why can't I undo edits made in the effects applied to clips or tracks? For example, when I tinker with the EQ or FFT and I end up not liking the edits - there's no way to undo them, Audition does not register those steps as undoable and it starts undoing other stuff while leaving the changes I made as they are. So I have to manually recreate the effect parameters as they were before the changes.  I find this program behavior is stifling my creativity and my naturally experimental approach to editing audio, as I have to very carefully plan around the fact that whatever I do can't be undone. Yes I can duplicate the effect and turn it off while I experiment on the copy, but it's all very cumbersome and doesn't allow for insta

I have Snapping set up with everything unchecked except for Zero Crossings. But the edges of a selection snap to tons of different places in between zero crossings. I can't figure out what it IS snapping to.  In this image, I dragged to create a selection, and I expected the edges of the selection to snap only to zero crossings (I marked the edges of a selection, which are clearly NOT zero crossing points). But as you can see, this didn't happen. What am I missing here? Is there a way to have AA ONLY snap to zero crossings and nothing else? 

I’ve been working on a project in Audition that has two tracks in the multitrack: one with music and one with dialogue. I was working on it when it said there was an error reading the disk, so I should save and restart Audition. I saved and restarted my project, but then my first track (with the dialogue in it) was not playing. The music in the track below is still playing. You can see the sound waves on the track, but the sound meter does not move.I am on a windows PC. I’ve tried changing audio hardware preferences, I’ve tried restarting my PC, I’ve tried to shift all sounds down a few tracks, I’ve tried looking at previous backups (but they did not play as well),  

Is there a way to fast forward playback (pressing "L") without affecting pitch (like Premiere Pro, for example)? Also, is there a way to use the mouse scroll-wheel to naviagate the timeline (like Premiere Pro).  Can't grasp why Adobe doesn't have uniform UI across all their apps. Driving me crazy lol

This is not reporting an issue in Audition (I don't think), this seems to be an issue with two VST3 plugins:TBTECH - Kirchhoff-EQFiedler Audio - SplatThese are the only two plugins I've found that have this issue.If either effect are opened such that they are first drawn to an extended desktop monitor, it crashes Audition, everytime.So, anytime I need to open either of them, I must first unplug my external monitor to ensure they are drawn to the primary display.  I can then plugin external monitor and then I can move either plugin onto that extended desktop without issue. I'm posting this, not because I'm trying to find a solution but to provide this workaround for others who run into this issue.

Adding a marker to audition is super easy - just click m and there it is, yay.  However, they don’t stay where you put them.  So, they are useless.I’ve added markers to a track (single waveform, not multitrack view), saved the file and come back to it later.  Sometimes the markers are just not where I put them.  Other times they move if I do an edit.  Any kind of inserting a recording will move all the markers (or rather, keep the marker where it was while shifting the rest of the waveform along with the new insterted recording).  Sometimes pasting audio into the track will mess things up.  Other times it just seems to happen anyway.Any ideas how to make markers an actual functioning feature rather than a waste of time?(I’ve shared this in a group with audio narrators and many of them report the same issue, some suggesting editing from the end of the track backwards as this might be a workaround.  I’d prefer to have it just work properly if possible.  Tech support suggested it was due

I’m having issues with Audition.  I was able to use it for 10 minutes today, but then it froze.  When I tried to restart it, it will still be frozen.  I can’t even send any bug or error reports.  I tried using previous versions of Audition and they too weren’t working.  I spent like 1 or 2 hours trying to get this software to work.  I tried updating all the versions of Audition and they still freeze.  I posted a video here of what I’m experiencing so you get an idea.

Adobe, fix this please! Audition 2023 burns CDs just fine on my 2022 Mac Studio with external SuperDrive, yet Audition 2024 can't handle such an advanced task?! This is ridiculous. 

I’ve used various versions of Adobe Audition for about 20 years. Now it is unusable!!!

16-bit 92K audio files sound normal, the problem only affects 24-bit 192K audio and is a recent problem occurring this past week since the latest Audition update 

When using multi track, I highlight the audio on the tracks I want to mixdown to a new file. When I choose that option, Audition is mixing down everything in the session vs just the selected tracks. Again I highlight the tracks, I right click, scroll to mixdown session to new file, choose selected clips, but it is still mixing down everything in the session. This just started happening when I upgraded to version 26.0.0.56  Can anyone tell me what I need to do or if a default needs to be changed with the upgrade? Thank you for any suggestions or fixes. 

new issue with Audition. If i highlight the whole waveform and delete it, the content is cleared and the scroll bar along the top is emptied, but the main editor window still hase the waveform image in view.   If I hit record this screen then clears and the recording continues, so the content has been deleted, but for some reason this ghost of the waveform remains in the viewing window until I hit record again.  This was never an issue before latest update.      

Audition 26.0.0.56 does not work properly with Huion Keydial Mini on Mac OS 15 – buttons execute different functions than assigned (it works fine on Audition 2025 though)

Every time I double click a track on the multitrack view to edit it in the waveform view, and then try to record, the input level halves or is reduced even more. If I go back out and then go back in to record again, the input level gets even smaller. This bug is HUGE and is ruining my workflow.

Hi, my my computer doesn't support AVX2 so I'm stuck using versions 23 of Premiere and After Effects which is fine. Luckily the Creative Cloud app allowed me to download these older versions.However, Audition doesn't have any option to download an older versions like many of the other apps do and the current version isn't compatible with my computer.  So how install Audition v23 which I assume works without AVX2? Thanks,-Pete
