3.01 to CC

I have been looking around a lot and cannot find a solution to the few hundred 3.1 sessions I have and how to convert them to CC as I need to. 

I have tried to re-install 3.01 to my updated windows 7 pro, but it will not open at all.  I have the original disc and everything needed, but NOTHING works.

    If you decide to move to Audition CC (and, depending on your needs, the software has "grown up" quite a bit) I can vouch for that software Charles has linked to.  I was written by a regular in these forums (Suitespot) so support is excellent!  One thing to note is that you have to be running a 64 bit operating system.

    The problem you're having reinstalling Audition 3.01 is because, several year ago, Adobe took the activation server for old versions off line.  However, Adobe have made provision for customers like you--you can download a new copy of 3.01 that you can activate with a generic serial number which they provide.  If you want to do this, this FAQ gives details and the URLs:  Audition 3 and the activation service

    I recommend you read through the whole thing because it gives details of some issues you may have an the addresses also get updated toward the end.

    Thank you Bob!!!  Works perfectly!

    I have been working in Audition since it was Cool Edit Pro then moved to cs5 right away and have been on the CC subscription service since its inception.  I used both versions on a previous system but after doing a rebuild, I was unable to get 3.0 to work at all.  I have several old sessions that I want to remix and remaster using the side-chain compression in CC especially.  Plus there are several old sessions that I never saved mixes of and have been aching to get those. 

    The third party software will not guarantee a proper compilation of sessions with all effects and track edits, so after not being able to find a solution, you saved me, thank you Bob!!
