This! Especailly now considering Team Projects is available to all Creative Cloud users. What a dream it would be to work on a .sesx file in Team Projects, save it and then have another audio producer pick up from where I left off. If I needed to look back in I'd get a changelog of everything done in my absence. As the director of a global audio production company that has producers in many time zones and different corners of the world Team Projects for Adobe Audition would be a dream come true! I had a play with Adobe Premiere Pro and found a hacky way to use it for audio. So audio producers could use this in the meantime but nothing would beat a native Adobe Audition integration. Here's the video showing what a do to make Premiere Pro into an audio editor (works well for basic podcast intros and perhaps even podcast editing): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2bNIO7wayY ...

The audio will be saved into a folder appended with _Recorded which will be in the same folder location that you save your session. Simply head to this directory and delete any audio files you don't need. Careful not to delete the wrong files otherwise they'll disappear permanently from your Adobe Audition session too. ...

The first thing I'd do is head to Preferences > Audio Hardware and check your output device. Is it still set as Zoom UAC-2 Pre Amp? Sometimes these things can change around even if we didn't do anything but simply from your system going to sleep and then powering back on again. ... View more

Community wouldn't let me upload the audio so I placed my fixed file here. ... View more

It sounds like you have some digital clipping here. This can be fixed in the future by turning the volume level of the mic input down while recording or, even better, running the microphone through a preamp with a compressor/limiter to stop these distoreted peaks.   I tested Window > Diagnostics > DeClipper (which would be the best effect for this) but it had little impact. The alternative is to run through the audio and clip out all these peaks. You can do it easily as long as you make a clean cut otherwise it'll sound edited. Switch on spectral frequency display and you'll be able to see all these clips as bright yellow lines.   I attached my attempt at removing the clips to show that it is possible 🙂 ... View more

Thanks for the feedback here Steve.   I think you may have read the bullet points in the post above instead of watching the video where I explain everything in detail as I absolutely agree that noise reduction should be done before anything else for all the reasons you mention.   As for EQ before or after compression it's a good discussion and I've given my reasons for the way I do it in reply to your post here. ...

I'm pretty sure the verification servers would have been retired for CEP and Audition 1.0. It was announced a while back that there are no longer verification servers for 3.0 so I'd imagine 1.0 and before would be out of the picture.   I'd upgrade for the awesome Fraunhofer mp3 encoder or if you want a free and open source mp3 codec check out LAME. ...

Thanks for taking the time to watch my video Steve. You contribute so much value here I'm honoured you would watch and respect your feedback!   That's a great point on EQ before compression (or the opposite) and, like you say, there are some cases you'd want to do one way and other cases you'd do it the other way.   Compression for me keeps dialogue at a consistent level. If I then go ahead and add EQ on after compression it alters my dynamic range creating peaks in my lovely compressed waveform (as shown in the screenshot - before EQ on the left and after EQ on the right with arrows to show new volume spikes).     That's interesting on the precise editing capability of multitrack. I remember the days you could zoom right in on waveform view and actually alter the waveform with a pen tool. The multitrack seems to get better and cleaner with each Audition update so, it's true, you could choose to do precise (and non-destructive) editing in multitrack view. That would be especially true if you know all the zoom shortcuts as I'm sure you do Steve 🙂   It's a good conversation and I'm glad you started it. I hope we'll get others chiming in on how they do things with EQ, compression and using waveform vs multitrack.   Thanks again! ... View more

Thank you so much for the introduction here Sumeet!   I'm really delighted to present this series on audio editing and looking forward to seeing the questions you have. Audio is so much fun and I'm really excited to see how you're all using Adobe Audition to edit.   Ask away with anything that you need help with 😀 ... View more

Head for Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts and here you can delete the Toggle Playback and Toggle Recording shortcuts on the spacebar. This is a gret way to make sure you don't accidentally stop a recording using the keyboard. ... View more

It looks like you're saving an mp3 file at a super high sample rate. Are you able to click the Change... button by "Sample Type" and alter from 96000 Hz to 44100 Hz and see if this fixes it and allows you to export? ... View more

Have you checked to see that Creative Cloud files are syncing correctly on both machines?   The next option is to make sure you save all associated files with a session. This comes up as a question when you first save a .sesx file after installing Audition.   You can also save all media files with a session by heading to File > Export > Session... and ticking "Save copies of associated files". ...

It sounds to me like you've possibly overdone it on the DeReverb effect as everything sounds quite processed in terms of noise/echo reduction. Can you try dialing this down a little bit?   Are you using any noise gate too? It sounds like some of the quieter words are tailing off at the end. This would be the sign of a noise gate with a threshold set too high.   I'd go for something like the Compressor in the Dynamics effect in place of the Speech Volume Leveler. The latter can suck up the noise floor especially if you're recording in a less the acoustically perfect room.   Here's a video that may help you get started with the effect I recommend: ...

This is so cool - thank you! 😀   I think this is because you can only have the analogue input or USB return not both. So USB return on channel 1 will block out your mic input (via XLR into the desk).   I usually have Audition configured to play out of stereo channel 7/8 on the 12 MTK mixer. That way channels 1-6 and other stereo channels, like 9/10 11/12, can all be analogue inputs.     I hope this helps you get back on track! ... View more

You won't be able to save out the audio to the vidoe file, like Steve says, when you're done.   It's better to start out in Premiere Pro if you can with your MP4 clip. You can then right click the audio clip and select "Edit Clip in Adobe Audition". You'll then be able to make your changes in Audition, save and then it'll auto update back in Premiere Pro. You can then export your new video file with ease. ... View more

Great mixer. I use this one too!   Have you made sure to hit the "USB RTN" buttons on the channels you wish to hear audio on? This should make things work providing all settings are good (as they seem to be) in Audition.   ... View more

You should be OK for a certain amount of time as Steve mentions. After which, at some point, CC will try to check in online to see if your subscription is still active. If it can't get online you won't be able to open the apps. ... View more

You could cut and paste from later in the interview. Try and do it mid-way through a word in order for it to sound better.   Have you considered using Effects > Time and Pitch > Pitch Bender (process)...   This effect may offer the tail off you're looking for. ... View more

Are the plugins correctly licensed? This can sometimes stop them applying to the final mix.   If all is good there make sure the plugins are enabled (power on light) inside the effects rack. Try using them in Waveform view too and see if they work there otherwise it's worth reaching out to Antares and/or Celemony for support. ... View more

Thanks for the shout out SuiteSpot!   AutoDucking is the best and it's easy to access in Essential Sound pannel when you're working in Multitrack view. ... View more

You may wish to take a look at the DeClicker feature in Windows > Diagnostics.   If this doesn't work you can usually see this interferance in the Spectral Frequency View. You could then use the spot healing brush tool to paint the interferance out. ... View more

The I/O buffer is quite high. Try lowering that down to around 512 and see if this makes a difference. ... View more

Hi Dean, it sounds like something may have changed in the quality settings as this would take more time to save the same mp3.   It's worth to check settings such as bitrate, sample size, stereo/mono and lower these if you're able to. ... View more

This shouldn't have an impact on the running of the application.   Have you tried unplugging your external sound card to see if it will boot normally? ... View more

Yes! Select both tracks and then right click followed by choosing Match Loudness...   You may then match the volume of both tracks to be equal in relation to a set amount of LUFS. The default -23 LUFS will be fine for this case. ... View more

You'll want to get each host onto seperate tracks. Not many mixers allow for this however the Soundcraft Signature 12 MTK and new TASCAM Model 12 do allow for splitting of audio tracks in Adobe Audition. If the UMC404HD allows this you'll find the option in Multitrack view. Just drop down the input on each track and select the different channels for each of the 3 people in the room and the person on Discord. If you're using software to create virtual audio devices you may be able to do the same this way but better to try with the hardware first. ... View more

It sounds like an issue with your player rather than the way mp3 files are created. Are they all named sequentially?   How is your USB player deciding which order to play audio files? ... View more

It may be an issue with the generated voices on macOS. Audition calls upon the voices on your system. If they're not installed it may cause a crash like this.   Open System Preferences > Accesibility > Speech then drop down the System Voice menu, click Customize...   Here you will be able to tick and install voices. ...
