Adobe audition and Sanoma 14.2.1 - I can only record the left channel. The right channel is inoperative as it it not receiving the feed from my Focusrite 2i2. This works ok in Logic Pro and Audacity but not Audition

Has been working fine for two years.Recorded fine this morning in Waveform.Went to edit. Could only hear audio out of left headphone.Read a few dozen things here to look at, settings wise. Confirmed everything was set up right with Audition Settings.Restarted Audition. No luck.Restarted computer. Finally could hear through both channels. Could edit but my personalized Keyboard Shortcuts no longer work. And now I can't record.Read a few more suggestions in this community. Confirmed Mac Microphone via Privacy and Security settings was solid. Sound Preferences? Check. Reset my Audition settings. Still can't record.Updated MacOS. No luck. Still can't record. Any help is appreciated. Set-up:MacBook Pro.MacOS Monterey 12.7.5AT2020 mic thru Focusrite Scarlette 2i2

I just installed my Focusrite Scarlett Solo 2i2 and am trying to record just voice tracks, it is only recording the left channel.  I have looked in the forum at several different areas with similar questions and tried several different options, but nothing is changing the recording.  Any suggestions would be much appreciated.  

All of a sudden Audition is insisting both my output devices (Macbook speakers and headphones) can only accomodate a sampling rate of 16K.  None of the other programs I use (Ableton Live for example) are doing this. The Macbook Pro and the other programs recognize that my output devices have both 41K and 48K sampling.  Any idea how to fix this? I am using version 22.6.0.66 on a Macbook Pro MacOS Monterey 12.6.9

Hi, I’m new to adobde audition and recorded some silence in my recording space to check my noise floor. However, its showing an extremely quiet noise floor which I know is not right. I have a Rode NT1 mic and the gain is selected to do voice over peaking between -6 to -3. When I previously tested my noise floor with a different DAW its around -55db to -60db.  Is there some way I can get a more accurate picture of my noise floor with Adobe? Perhaps my settings aren't correct? TIA  

I don't know if this is a bug or intended behaviour, but I have loaded a wav file with a narrator voice onto track 1, and after going through it with the Razor tool to remove bad takes, notes etc, I have a large number of cuts in the track. I have also put a few markers on the clip itself to correspond to specific things in the file that I want to keep track of (i.e. select the clip and press M). Now when I right click and select Merge Clips, these markers disappear. I want to merge clips because that makes it easier to move and place in the rest of the timeline, I don't want to have to select dozens of clips and move them around every time, but I also need those markers as a reference for when a sound effect needs to play under the narration, etc.Is there a way to preserve markers when merging clips?

Is it possible to add sightlines to the Waveform Editor panel as this gentleman has done here (see attached image; go here for the full video), or has that feature been removed from later editions of Audition?

I have the weirdest problem, and it's happened on three separate computers, once every few weeks.  I edit a podcast: 5 dialogue tracks through a dialogue bus, two SFX tracks, and two music tracks. Each epsiode is about an hour long. Sometimes when I reopen a file, I'll notice that some clips are missing their waveform (sometimes just half their waveform). On checking the clip in the waveform editor, the original file is still in it's place, and I can view it in the waveform editor, but the clip will be essentially cut in half. The second half of the clip is missing entirely, so when the clip in the multitrack editor tries to reference it, there's nothing there. If I open the referenced audio file in File Explorer and compare it to my backup, the filesize is much smaller. And if I open it in an external media player, only half of the content is there. Somehow, Audition is completely deleting entire sections of my recorded audio.  Of course I can then just re-cop

Hi when i try to record on Adobe Audition but the sound (wave) is completely flat. Do you know how to fix this. I went on my IMac to fix the input as well as applications. I think the issue is on Adobe Audition, but i don't know where....Thank you ! 

Hello, I have the problem with Adobe Audition crashes / shuts down, when I edit and playback a recent done recording in Edit mode (wav 24 bit 96kHz stereo). This happens so often that it is impossible to use Audition on this specific computer. It is possible to recover the crashed file, somtimes with added glitches at the end. Audition 24.4.1.3The computer is a HP Elite SFF 800 G9 Intel i5, 12500, with Windows 11 pro 23H2 22631.3593. I had the same problem with another computer, but it was solved by reinstalling Audition. I have tried reinstalling the crashing version, but with no luck.Kind regardsMats

I'm using several iZotope plugins that have all been found and enabled in Plugin Manager, but when I come to open a session with those plugins, I get the error that half of them could not be found. It's like Audition thinks those plugins aren't installed, despite its own plugin manager finding them. They are all VST plugins - Neutron 4, RX 10 De-ess, and Ozone 9.The same file I'm trying to open works on a Mac, so I believe this is just to do with this specific machine.I've already reinstalled the plugins and rebooted my machine. Running Audition build 24.2.0.83 on Windows 11. 

First, I admit to being an idiot.  How have I produced and published 90 podcasts?  Today as I began working on producing another batch, I can't seem to open the Essential Sound Panel in the same way.  I used to have a great box that would sit at the right of my screen where I could click "dialogue" and then pick the type of sound or "music" and set the levels.  It's gone and I can't find it.  Help!

I'm running Adobe Audition 2020 and it has been for quite a while now really just been causing a lot more trouble than makes sense. I edit podcasts with 4 clips I need to clean out the usual umms, uhhs, likes, etc. on top of the usual hardware glitches and problems. Can be a reasonable amount of clipping but overall about 20 minutes of timeline total. And yet after a point, usually after I save it (not and close/reopen just manually save) starts really lagging/hitting not responding any time I move the playhead. For reference this is a most recently finished project that took an extra hour from this: Only last thing I can thnk of is I do apply the Podcast Voice preset before editing since it does set a good base for volume increases and processing. I don't believe it should have such adverse effects, but I haven't tried applying it at the end. I did some research in advance and found some similar issues that I tried fixes on. Pre-Rendering FX did improve this a bit, except fo

I uploaded a wav file into my audition, spent a lot of time editing down the audio yesterday. I saved the file onto my desktop and opening the file today, the waveform is missing. The entire file is blank. It looks as though I haven't done anything in this file.  Please help! 

Hello all, I've searched through the posts and can't find an answer to my problem.  I have a VST plug in that I use (Manley mu stereo limiter) and when I use it on my mixed down stereo project, it shifts the timeline ever so slightly, so I have one channel a bit ahead of the other channel which you can hear vividly.  The track sounds fine with the Adobe dynamic effects and keeps the timeline perfect, but can't seem to make the VST plugin work.   I have a screen capture below that show what happens to the stereo tracks after I use the plug in.  You can see one channel preceeds the other.  Jim 

Audition 24.4.1.3Windows 11 - 23H2Intel 13980HX64GB Ram This isn't likely an Audition problem, but I'm hoping maybe someone has some insights to share here.Our team got 5 new Asus ProArt laptops (H7604JI). On every single one of them, if you start a recording in Audition, the playhead will stutter along, jumping up the timeline every second or so, but nothing will be recorded. But as soon as you pass some audio through the speakers, Audition will record perfectly fine.  It doesn't even have to be an audio file. If you just drag the volume slider on the Windows taskbar so you get the Windows "ping" sound, then that's enough. I have tried changing the recording settings, tried the internal microphone as well as a USB mic (Shure MV7) and got the same results. You can see the issue in the attached video. I didn't include the microphone recording in OBS so that there was sure to be no conflict, but you'll see the playhead stutter, then hear the windows system sound,

Hello, I'm working on a Podcast using a Macbook Pro, 16 GB, Monterey Version 12.5.  I'm running low on storage. I had a loooong and frustrating phone/screen sharing session with Adobe Audition support today. I was looking for help understanding file/project storage (as in when/if/how to save my work to the Adobe Creative Cloud) and what's the best method for storing and backing up projects. The person I spoke with didn't really understand it much better than I did and had to keep putting me on hold, asking someone else how to do it. Two hours later, and I'm still pretty confused. While sharing my screen, he said he bookmarked an info page that explained how Audition worked with regard to saving and storing files. But, of course, he didn't. Does anyone happen to have a link that it explains this all well?Can anyone recommend an external hard drive for saving projects and files? Thank you! 

A stereo signal with identical channels appears as a diagonal line from the top right to the bottom left in a Lissajous figure (with the y-axis upper part being negative). Why is it a top right to bottom left diagonal and not a top left to bottom right diagonal? What are the units of the coordinate axes? What are the units of the coordinate axes in a Histogram? Compared to a Lissajous figure, what are the different use cases for these representations? 

Hello,I would like to create a very simple jsx script for Audition where markers are automatically created in an audio file at specific times. Does scripting in Audition allow to do this? If so I cannot find any info on that... Thank you

Adobe Audition and Optimize Speech Hello, How to explain that Adobe Premier contains the Optimize Speech function just like Adobe Podcast but not Adobe Audition. What is the logic? Adobe pushing to abandon Audition? Would the software be abandoned? THANKS.

Hello everyoneI wanted to ask whether Adobe Audition 2023 has the option to change the waveform from full to half.As an addition, I took screenshots to show how I imagine it. Thanks Mark

Trying to export multitrack Audition sesx file to OMF for a friend to use on ProTools.I do "File," "Export," "OMF" and try to run the export but it always fails, resulting in the same error: "Warnings: Clip duration is longer than source." I cannot seem to find ANYWHERE what this may mean, or how to fix it. Help, please?The first stages seem to go well:"Generating audio files for OMF export" - goes through this phase 2x and both seem to work. The second time goes faster than the first.There is another something that goes by too fast to see."Making composition tracks" does not finish and results in: "Warnings: Clip duration is longer than source."

Hey all,   I recently upgraded my laptop (New ROG Strix) and I am encountring a really weird issue. When I start recording (both with my basic headset and with my Rode console) there is an issue that causes the record to stutter and not really record, its basically stuck and moves very slow, bottom line, its not recording. I updated my drivers and tried every solution found on the web. Today I noticed something weird, if I play any kind of sound (Chrome, Spotify, media player, anything) and then start recording it suddenly works. If I wait around 5-10 seconds and try to record it gets stuck again, I play something (pause it) and it works.   It seems the fact I am playing something it unlocks something and Audition is able to record, like something goes on hibernate if I wait a few seconds. I am using the latest Audition version and Windows 11. Previous laptop was also a ROG gaming laptop with windows 11 as well, the audio hardware setup is exactly the same so I doubt its some

Hi,I have an Issue recording through usb on my Tascam M12: i'm recording a podcast using regular mics in a studio, and i have guests on a Zoom Call or Google meet. i want to be able to record the incoming sound from the call - separated from the online call.for example - two host are talking in the studio, one guest is on Google Meet. each mic in the studio is being recorded separately, but everything that is going on is recorded in the PC channel set to record the Google Meet. That makes editing the guest nearly impossible. I'm using Tascam M12 with firmware update V.141My usb input is routed through input 9/10  please help.Thx
