I cannot hear what I'm recording through my headphones. I'm using Adobe Audition 1.5. I can hear the instrumental fine. Can anyone help me?

What sound device, if any, are you using? And what OS? Monitoring of a mic signal is almost always via a direct path through the sound device, as this has zero latency. On many devices there's a knob on the front so you can alter the mixture of yourself and whatever's playing back.

I’ve got an ART Tube MP Studio Mic preamp. It’s hooked directly into my PC. The microphone (AKG c3000b) is plugged into the ART Tube Studio Mic preamp, which is plugged into the back of my computer. Also my headphones are plugged into the back of the tower as well. I’m using a very old setup (Microsoft XP). I used to record years ago, being a non-essential worker I’m home and I’m trying to do something constructive with my time during the quarantine. Thank you for your help.

Open the Volume Controls by clicking on the loudspeaker. Go to the Properties menu at the top and select playback controls. Select all available - these should include the inputs. Now when you go back to Master Volume, you should be able to mute everything you don't want to hear, but unmute the input you do want to hear, and adjust the level of it in the output. I have to say that this is way better than the rather crap versions we've had to put up with since in Windows 10...
