An option to attach markers to clips in multitrack view, rather than attaching them to the timeline

Currently in Audition's multitrack editor, markers can only be attached to the timeline. It would be helpful to have an option to attach markers to individual clips, so that when those clips are moved in the timeline the markers move with them.

The only way to achieve this right now is to go into waveform view and place a marker there. This is pretty inconvenient and involves a lot of clicking back and forth between views.

This absolutely needs to happen. When I record my podcast, I mark parts that I need to correct in post but as soon as I make one edit, all of the markers become misaligned, and they become more off as I continue making edits. Even adding my intro music sequence puts all of my markers off by almost a minute.

I fully agree, this functionality is desperately needed in my work. Also agree with Sonja above, at least allow the makers to move when parts are ripple deleted.

Agree. This behaviour should be the same as in Premiere. It's a real pain when working with multiple audio clips and you're trying to align things to certain beats

I’d also like to add that the timeline markers on premiere travel when clips are cut or gaps are ripple deleted. This would be the least Addition should do, if not offer the ability to add markers to clips. I also work on podcasts and this is excruciatingly annoying.

I just Tweeted about this today and I really would love this to be added. I work on audio podcasts & documentaries and markers are essential. It gets quite annoying when you want to move things over but the marker stays in the same place in the multitrack. Giant headache. Please add.

I know this is old, but I agree. Similar to Premiere, we need the ability to place clip markers while in multitrack.

If you're not selecting a clip, marker defaults to a track marker. If selecting a clip, marker defaults to a clip marker.

This would be incredibly useful. I use Audition to edit podcasts. I use markers in multitrack to indicate parts of the show that wouldn't always be clear from just looking at the audio at that point. Obviously the editing process is a moveable feast. I might remove part of the podcast near the beginning and shuffle everything up. But then I need to manually move each marker and put it in a new position. Having the option to move markers *and* clips at the same time would just save a load of time.

Needing markers that move with audio clips. Wasting a lot of time repositioning markers to realign to correct audio when marked audio has to later be edited,. eg I do a lot of vinyl to CD and digital, and have to mark tracks for CDs and mp3 export. Often vinyl recording is interrupted and sections have to be edited after tracks have been identified by markers. Thanks
