Hi,

In daily use of Audition, we need to play different signals in a multitrack section file through different sound cards.  mine is Audition CC 2018

pls contact me *personal contact details removed - Mod*, thanks in advance.

    For PCs:

    It's not possible to do this with an ASIO driver - the system was designed by Steinberg so that it would only address one device - nothing to do with Audition at all, that's their limitation and any software using it is forced to abide by it. The reason is that it punches a hole clean through most of the OS, and consequently performs rather better. It works well with Audition, as Audition has an ASIO-based engine.

    Because of the way most other device drivers work, I think that there's only going to be one way to do this, and that's to use ASIO4ALL, which will allow you to aggregate more than one device, but the whole setup will have higher latency. For playback only, that's unlikely to be a problem. ASIO4ALL is free, and relatively easy to set up. It also has good diagnostics, so you can tell what's happening and whether you have any problems you need to address.

    For Macs

    My understanding is that Macs aggregate audio devices anyway, so it's a matter of getting them connected up and the system configured correctly, I guess - I don't have one so I can't tell you absolutely what you have to do.

    I successfully installed the ASIO4ALL in the compatible mode. but when I start the audition, it is the same. only one sound card can be set to play. I still can not play different track in different card.

    I have an old version of audition, maybe 1.0, it can support different sound card playback.

    Hi SteveG,

    thanks for your reply, so according to you, the problem lies in the the ASIO driver.

    I have downloaded the ASIO4ALL driver, but I also encountered a problem when I install this driver, it displays an error like below. my laptop is Win10.

    Hi SteveG

    I have installed ASIO4ALL in a compatible mode, however, I can not find ASIO4ALL when setting the driver. there is only one called ASIO Fireface USB, which is an external soundcard driver.

    I also can not find ASIO related driver in device manager.

    If you can't find the driver, then it isn't installed correctly. I'm not quite sure why it's misbehaving - normally it's pretty benign. I just updated it on this W10 laptop without difficulty. Also I don't think it will work with any Audition version below 2, although I'd have to check on that - the ASIO engine was introduced around this time. You can download Audition 3 though (look in the FAQs) and it will certainly work with that. To see everything available in ASIO4ALL you may have to open its control panel and enable a few things...
