Question

Faders not real time feedback / volume when using a bus

 have been using ro Tools for music production and post production for over 20 years. I am because of me work as a teacher I am obliged to switch to Audition. 

 

But I run into something crazy. If I use a bus track (for send / return of effects) I cannot mix in real time. I can set the fader higher or lower, nothing changes with the volume, not even the panning. The master fader does.

 

The adjusted volume is only audible when I stop the project and press play again. If I do not use a bus track, the faders do work in real time.

 

My question to you: am I just stupid, am I overlooking something, or is this not possible in Audition?

Did you ever find a fix for this.  I'm in your exact position and am finding the same issue!

It seems to work fine here. If I use a track send feed to a bus though, and send it pre-fader then the the track fader won't affect the output level at all - but that's as it should be. If you just route the track's output to a bus, then both faders will work.

Attached is a screenshot of the routing. No matter what I try, pre, post fader it doesn't matter I can't adjust the volume in real time. The adjustment has no effect until I stop and restart the audio

Well, I'm afraid that it will be something about your system that's causing this. If it was a generic issue, then everybody would be complaining about it, and they aren't. One thing that might well be worth checking is how up to date your video driver is - this plays a major part in real-time interaction within Audition.

 

Can you create a video of this happening?
