Audition

I recently bought adobe audition 1.5 from ebay and I have been trying to install it from a CD and after inputting the serial number, it also ask for a verification code during the installation. The package from ebay came only with the serial number but no verification code.How the heck do I install this software please?can anybody help. Thanks

I have recorded 12 & 45 minute voice overs files for a documentary. I also recorded a test today. It was fine for a few minutes, then I got the same error message I have attached. It appears the waveform is there, but there is no sound. I pulled the file up in another DAW, WAV or MP3, and the audio is gone. In another DAW thee waveform has vanished. The wave in flat. It played back just fine last night when I saved and closed out. 

I’ve inserted two WAV files directly next to each other on the first track of a multitrack file (two recordings of a single concert, one before and one after the intermission...). I’ve already added section markers with song titles to the WAV files. I’d like to carry these section markers over to the multitrack file. No problem transferring the markers from the first clip, e.g., via CSV. However, I can’t insert the markers from the second file starting from their position because they’re always inserted as absolute markers, which overwrites the markers from the preceding first file. No way to do this, right? 

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

I record audio from my mic to an audio interface into my computer and to the DAW (Adobe Audition). I can’t figure out why it’s doing this but I’ll record and then when I step back to playback the recording there are places where the audio will fade out and back in (Also shows on the waveform). You can see in the images shared that the audio goes down considerably, I maintained my mic distance and placement, and maintained my speaking volume throughout both of these. The second screenshot is where it is the worst, but since it is a private audition I can’t share the audio file. The first one I just went to NESCAFE’s website and read coffee facts for the sample. I’ll upload that one as an mp3 as well. Any ideas on what could be causing this issue? I have tried switching the buffering size from 512 up to 1024, which seemed to have no affect. I have it set to ASIO (I’m on Windows). and the sample rate is 48kHz, which matches the system settings.  My recording setup is as follows:Mic: Neuma

After the recent update of Adobe Cloud to Auditiion 2026,  I constantly get the pop up of Audio Preferences, even though I haven’t changed anything.   Now it stops in the middle of recordings and is killing my productivity.   Seems its just come about with the upgrade to 2026.  I want back to 2025 but that didn’t seem to solve the issue.    Ideas, fix, patch?    thanks 

Hi teamI was on vaca for 2 wks, started up adobe audition versuin25.3.0.71 and now I'm getting a popup window about every two hours or so stating: 'The list of audio devices connected to the operating system has been changed. Do you want to open the Audio Hardware preferences? I did not have this message before my vaca. I click yes, and I have to re-choose Device class: ASIO / Device: Focusrite USB ASIO etc and then also correct my Audio Channel Mapping Device Channels.  What is causing this to happen and how do I fix this so that it doesn't happen again? I'm hardwired into my router and I have a new laptop. Thank you all!  

It’s all in the title. I’ve tried changing shift using audacity, here is the result : https://vocaroo.com/1kMlby8qIrGz sounds fine to me.Now, here is the result with audition : https://vocaroo.com/1gv4P883Z3vI it’s absolute garbageWhy is there such a difference? I’ve made sure the “multitrack” frequency is the same as the file. I tried changing “stretch” settings to “rendered” (even though I didnt stretch it).Here are my settings, I’ve tried to make them as close as audacity’s as possible :   

Hi everyone,I'm experiencing a frustrating issue in Adobe Audition when listening back to my recorded audio file. After exporting to file to see if that fixes, I noticed that the exported files have no sound, even though the file size suggests there's audio data present ( see screen shot)Here’s what I’ve tried so far:✅ Checked Master (mix) Channel & Track Outputs – No change✅ Verified Export Settings – Everything seems fine (format, sample rate, bit depth).✅ Tried Different Formats – WAV, MP3, FLAC—same muted result.✅ Restarted Audition & Reimported – No change.✅ Checked Audio Hardware Settings – My system plays other audio files normally.✅ Bypassed Effects & Plugins – No accidental gating or muting applied.✅ Reset Preferences – No luck after resetting Audition.At this point, I’m stuck! Has anyone encountered this issue before, or does anyone have additional suggestions?I'm now cocnerned that the file has corrupted somehow.&nbs

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

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

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
