Audition

I can add a loop marker, but since it's not a sustain loop marker written in smpl chunk, other software such as Sound Forge, Kontakt, or Wwise does not recognize the wave file's loop information. I'd want a loop marker to be an sustain loop marker by default, or please at least add an option to convert it into a sustain loop marker.

Currently, it's still easier to edit VO for a podcast in Premiere as you don't have to select a bunch of clips to move a simple edit. It would be great to include ripple edit and rolling edit.

When I edit my audio in multitrack I cutout everything but good takes. Then I copy them to a new track and ripple delete the gaps in between the remaining good takes. As I do this, it starts to take longer for each ripple delete gap. Relaunching Audition fixes the problem for about 15-20 deletes, then it starts to get exponentially longer for the delete to occur.

When I do a ripple delete in the multitrack view, it would be nice if the time selection tool jumped back about 1 second and autoplayed to allow me to hear the edit i just made. This would be very handy for removing a a lot of vocal fillers from a section on speech.I don't like the current process of making a cut, clicking back, then pressing the space bar to listen back to my cut. It may seem trivial but when you have to remove something like 30 "ummms" in a minute, this is would save a good amount of time and wear on my hands.

Is there a way to replace a file in the multitrack editor, for example a watermarked music track with the licensed music track?I work with a lot of temporary music and clients need to hear a "mixed" video before they can approve it. It would help immensely to be able to right click and do something like "Replace with clip from Bin" to keep all the keyframes, effects, etc.

Often I'm editing tutorials with many cuts that need a quick fade in/out at the top and bottom of each clip to avoid discontinuity pops. I would love to be able to apply a fade in/out to each one by a variable number of milliseconds and shape to speed up my audio editing. At the moment I can make a custom keyboard shortcut for the fade in and a separate one for the fade out, but you can't adjust the amount of time the fade takes, so it's always too long of a fade and I have to adjust it manually anyway, so it's not much of a shortcut.

Live waveforms for clip gain adjustment is great for balancing purposes. But they are pre any track effects / subsequent bus effects.Be great to see a representation in the master track of a waveform showing how the export will appear. Help to catch and soften any peaks - spot any mis-panning etc by eye from the overall timeline.

Very simple: an option to have Audition in multitrack mode behave such that soloing a track will temporarily unmute it. As it stands, soloing a muted track does nothing at all, right? Why not have it actually solo the track instead? It's a pain in the butt having to unmute, solo, listen to it, unsolo it, then mute it again....a hundred times a day. This simple option would save a lot of time.

Real Ambisonic file creation and Ambisonic mixing support

I know this might have been a fairly esoteric feature back in the Audition 3 days, but I'd like to have the Spectral Pan and Frequency displays back. They were quite useful for surgical editing of the stereo image. I don't imagine they would be that hard to re-implement.

I sometimes have one or more tracks that I want to keep fairly tall all the time so I can see their audio in more detail, while other tracks can usually stay as small (vertically) as possible. But when I do need to zoom those small ones and then zoom them all the way back out, my tall ones also get zoomed out. If I could lock them, I'd be much happier.A variation on this idea would be zooming proportionally when some tracks have been individually zoomed, so the small ones get bigger and the big ones get even bigger. When you zoom back out, the small ones go to smallest possible and the tall ones go back to where the heights that were previously set.

Premiere Pro has an excellent method of relinking media files. If media isn't present in its last known place, it provides a window that tells you all the files that are missing and its last known location. Audition only informs you that there is X number of files missing, and when you relink, it gives you one file to relink at a time, with no information where Audition thinks its last location is. Additionally, Premiere Pro will automatically find remaining files based on the last location of the relinked file. Adobe Audition does not. Having this additional functionality would be extremely helpful, especially if your workflow makes it challenging to collect all files into a session due to space limitations.

JKL is pretty familiar to anyone who uses Audition regularly. If you edit podcasts, you know how crucial this can be for the purposes of saving time. The problem is, much like the terrible means of searching for silence in Audition (for the purposes of dialogue editing, anyway), it’s far too rigid and playback sounds incredibly unnatural. Right now, I have my shuttle increases set to half speed, which gives me a roughly 1.3X playback. I’d like to use a higher speed, but anything greater than that is useless for spoken word. They’re chipmunks and you can’t understand anything. Pro Tools gives you the option to perfectly set playback speed to your preference since it allows you to enter an exact percentage. This is immensely helpful. And there should also be a toggle for how the pitch of the output changes. I mean, every single podcast and audiobook player can do this, but some of the best implementations are Overcast and Libby (and even Audible), both of which do a good job of allowing

Sometimes I need the click track from the metronome to be exported together with the audio for the client's need (usually a choreographer or music video director).My current solution is to use cables and route output to input on my audio interface to record to another track but this is waaay too cumbersome. A simple checkbox on the export dialog would greatly speed up my workflow.This checkbox could even appear only if you have the metronome toggled on and unmuted.I attached an image as an example of how it could be.

One things really missing in Audition is an effect similar to Izotope's De-Rustle that removes clothing rubbing sounds when recording with lav mics. This is a recurring issue if you look at search results on Google so might be a great addition to Audition.

I have a podcast template with 6 voice tracks, a dialog bus, SFX / music tracks and a final mix/check bus before master. I have 1-2 VST effects on each of these. Mixing down a 2 hour podcast episode will easily take an hour on a pretty decent machine - with 15% CPU utilization. I realize this is complex, but couldn't the mixdown process be modularized to take advantage of multiple CPUs in the system, and thus probably reduce the mixdown time greatly?

Title says it all, even though the MP3 license has expired it is still used by a large majority of people and it is still offered as an Export option in Audition. With the current Fraunhofer encoder at CBR 320, there is a brickwall at the 16kHz frequency, which removes a lot of the higher frequencies during compression (therefore decreasing the quaility). On the other hand, the LAME encoder does not have this issue and extends its range to 20kHz (maximum a human can hear). Many other DAWs use this while Audition is the only one that has not taken this into consideration. I've seen other posts here saying that MP3 export quality is bad and this is the exact reason why. Wavelab, audacity, Izotope RX, and many more programs use LAME which offers a dramatic increase in quality compared to the Fraunhofer Audition uses. This really isn't a complicated fix, it's as simple as adding a dll, so devs please fix this.

Like Logic it would be useful to directly extract audio from a video, work on it and then remux it back to the video without having to re encode the whole material. Especially because I experienced audio bugs in premiere applying effects realtime in the mixer. When I encode the material it always fails and the audio isn't the same I edited in the program. I'm using built in audio plugins in the mixer both on tracks and master track. This is happening from the latest release. The doesn't affect the improvement which will still be useful anyway

It would be nice to be able to export a wavfile as picture, edit it in Photoshop and the reimport the picture to audition. So every manipulation on the picture in photoshop has effect on the wavfile.

When you organize multi-tracks, it's a good practice to assign color labels to tracks relative to the same instrument or instrument's family.We have to do so track by track that can be time consuming.Enable the possibility to group tracks to assign them a color in one click.It could be also useful to modify gain of all the tracks of a group in a single click.

When using the 'Mark Audio' effect to automatically mark sections of audio in a recording (where there is quiet in between) an option to add padding to these markers would be great. When marking sections of audio to be exported as separate files I usually require a few hundred milliseconds of silence at the start and end. Protools and Audacity let you decide how long before and after the section of audio the markers should be placed and it's very handy. I'm surprised Audition doesn't have such a feature.Kind regards,Mark

Have the ability to output video through black magic card to an external monitor

I need to be able to score films. This requires the use of external music creation software like Reason, and East/West's amazing sample library via their Play app. Just add rewire or some other method so I can create the soundtrack in realtime with the video track. I am otherwise forced to use other applications and audition is useless after the dialog editing. Honestly, this is the only multitrack audio software that doesn't support it. More frustratingly Audition used to support Rewire technology. I see youtube videos showing how to do it.

Different coloured markers, with pre-setable marker names, with different assignable shortcut keys.This would help me during recording to mark editing comments simply by pressing shortcut keys.It would even be better if certain markers have macros assigned to them that are performed after recording. For example i mark hesitation ("ummmm") sound which visually and audably are very identifiable. It sould be great if during recording I put a pre-programmed special marker by me on these syllables, and after finishing recording, macros are executed to remove these. A reviewing option of each marker would make it more ideal too.I would explain further if you like.

Occasionally, you'll have a stereo audio clip where one side might be a boom mic, and the other might be a wireless lapel (lav) mic.A nice feature would be the ability to drag that clip over two mono tracks, and have Audition automatically split the clip into two separate mono clips, which can then be edited and mixed independently.
