Questions

Hello, I'm having issues with the audio quality of a recording. I'm using a Pyle PMXU43BT.5 4 channel audio mixer with two Donner DC20 Condenser microphones with XLR hookups. The Pyle Mixer is connected to the computer via USB. I'm getting this odd kind of distortion or something in the recording. Both mics have the same issue which leads me to believe they're not faulty and no matter how much I mess with the gain, levels, etc. the problem is still there. No better, no worse. This leads me to believe it's probably Audition that's the issue. I'm using the 2023 version if that helps.I've linked to a video here with the audio so please take a listen if you think you can help. I also have some pictures of my current settings as well:Thank you in advance, this is endlessly frustrating.https://youtu.be/O1e7WK-wOfs

Hi all...Is Audition able to conform (not sure if that´s the term, I apologize for my English) editing changes from premiere? In order not to have to redo the whole sound part.Thanks a lot

I imported every track I need and can hear them. But for one of them I can't hear anything from it at all? is there something I can do to fix this issue? 

I updated to version 22.3 recently and ever since then, the CTRL + Tab or CTRL + SHIFT + Tab functionality has been broken. It pops up the list of open files for half a second and then that goes away and it doesn't swap to a new file. I've remapped the buttons for Switch to Next File and Switch to Previous File, rebooted, uninstalled and reinstalled 22.3 and nothing seems to have worked. I finally uninstalled 22.3 and re-installed version 22.2 and now it's working again, which leads me to believe it's something wrong with 22.3 and not my computer itself. Or, at the very least, something weird in 22.3 that doesn't like my computer or Audition configuration or something. Has anyone else run into this issue as well? It really broke my workflow until I got 22.2 back again. I'm running Windows 10, if that helps.

Hi all, Is there any effect in Audition that lets you compare two channels and automatically lower (or remove) the leaked in audio from the other channels. So the voice of person 1 is automatically lowered or removed from channel 2, and vice versa.  I have decent michrophones but the setup is not perfect and a lot of audio spills over from the other person at the table.  Using Audition 24, Macbook Pro.  Thanks for any help.   

Any volunteers?Adobe offers no way to report the myriad of bugs.  Because of that, those bugs stay in the software version after version, year after year.We can't change that but the community could setup an outside issue tracking system which would at least provide workarounds for the bugs that have them. Any volunteers?

Hello, I just recorded an audio session that was about 2 hours long. Once I stopped the recording, the file time was only 35 minutes long and the audio sound is being played back very fast and high pitched like the "chipmunks". What would cause this to happen? And How can I get it to go back to normal.  I have tried these things but nothing sounds normal as a fix. Changeing the preferences/playback and recordings - JKL Shuttlespeed to half speed then using L to slow it down. This did bring it down a bit, I can at least understand the words but it is still way too fast.  I have also played around with the Effect - Time and Pitch process - I could probably tweak it a bit to make it useable to transcribe the words off of the recording, but it isn't the natural sound of the recording.  Why did this happen and What can I do to prevent this from happening again??? Thank you for your help! btw: using Windows 10, Adobe Audition build 13.0.2.35&

Hello,Have a four track podcast recording. The sound information is there but:1. Can't hear anything on playback2. No sound information on the level meter while attempting playback3.

So I can't figure out what these students might have changed to get to this circumstance.Imac Ventura OSPreSonus Studio 192 Audio InterfacePreSonus Faderport 8 Control Surface.Thanks for any adviceRobert N  

PLEASE HELP this is the THIRD time this has happened and I'm ready to cancel my subscription and find something more reliable. I recorded a session on multi-track and made sure to save the file properly beofre exiting the session. When I went back in to edit it later on, I kept getting this message: No matter what I do it wont open the file and I'm so upset!!!!! 

When it is moved into multitrack i does not playback, it looks like it is there but i can not hear it. In addition if the track is armed as usual and before starting to record (only happens in Multitrack) the vloume maxes out not sure how to fix this anyone help? I will post some pics of my settings if that helps.

I've downloaded the 2024 version of Auditioin, and it appears to be identifying any audio files that are 192 kbps and lower as variable bit rate files even though they have been recorded in constant bit rate. This creates a huge issue since when I am uploading a file to a production order and our auto-dub function tries to retrieve the audio and metadata to place in our automation system. It identifies it as a VBR file which causes our server to hang up rather than a CBR file which it is able to properly process. Is this a metadata or bit rate issue that is causing this to be incorrectly identified?

Bonjour,je rencontre un problème d'enregistrement de voix dans Adobe Audition. J'utilise la dernière version du logciel avec une carte son externe Focusrite et un micro branché en XLR. Le niveau sur la carte son module bien, le mixer audio de windows confirme que le son entre bien dans l'ordinateur. J'ai testé avec l'enregsitreur windows et ça fonctionne. Pourtant dans audition aucun son ne rentre ni n'est enregistré. J'ai vérifié la configuration du matériel audio et tout est bon. Est-ce que quelqu'un a déjà eu ce problème et a pu le résoudre?Merci.

Each time I use Audition for a project, I find a new way to ruin hours of work without even noticing. Clearly, I am the idiot that beat the idiot-proofing. On this occasion, the last 5 minutes of an audio dialogue track have acquired a strange and displeasing robotic sound. I have applied no effects, and by studying the waveform I can trace the problem back to something I did about 4 hours ago: using Global Clip Stretching to speed up the workflow to 64%, then merging two clips, before restoring all clips to original speed of 100%. As a result, the merged clips at the end have been permanently ruined. Some audio information from the last 5 minutes of the track has been lost by the speed-up, resulting in robotic distortion.On the above image, you can see how the waveform has been finely chopped up. After much searching I can't find a way to repair this (or even restore the original dialogue track!). Is there a tool or a trick to do this? Any help would be greatly apprecia

Hi thereWhen I use the insert function on the recording button it is constantly cutting off the beginning of my words. Any fix to this? Also when I share my sound in Zoom, my participant is unable to hear my audio when using audition. They can hear it with any other DAW. Thoughts? I appreciate any and all assistance. Cathi

Hi Folks,    I had an older version of Adobe Audition.  There are two things the old one could do that my new version seems to not be able to.First, I could swap channels - in other words, in my Channel Edit on any stereo track I could easily swap channels.Second thing, in my older version, I could highlight the left or right channel and edit either or - adjust the volume, or whatever else.Can't seem to find how to do either thing.

Recording from You Tube to Audition the sound quality is terrible sounds muffled and tinnyAudition will perfectly record CDs and also from my microphone, but not you tube.I was online to adobe help for ages and the best the help person said was that I need "OS capture device for adobe audition windows 10"I dont know what an OS capture device isI have been able to record from You Tube since, well forever. Just this last week its gone weird on me any clues any tips?

Hallo ihr Lieben, ich bin langsam etwas verzweifelt und hoffe, dass mir vielleicht jemand von euch helfen kann.  Ich habe in Audition einen Multitrack mit 4 Spuren erstellt. Zwei Spuren sind eingefügte Töne, die anderen beiden wurden direkt in der Session eingesprochen bzw. aufgenommen. Wenn ich die gesamte Session jetzt Exportieren möchte (egal ob über Datei -> Exportieren -> Multitrack-Abmischung -> Gesamte Session oder wenn ich alle Clips auswähle und dann Ausgewählte Clips wähle) speichert er mir eine Datei, in der die eingefügten Töne zu hören sind und an den Stellen der Aufnahmen ist einfach stille.  Weiß jemand woran das liegen kann? was mache ich falsch? Ich habe schon eine Aufnahmen in der Art gemacht und hatte das Problem noch nie.... Viele Grüße, Carla 

Speed definitely feels like a downgrade from previous versions. I use diagnostics for shortening silencesm and clicking "shorten" results in a very slow process

I have an old session that was created in Cool Edit Pro 2.1. I want to revisit that session now in Audition 2023. Is there any way to convert the original Cool Edit SES file to an SESX file useable in Audition 2023?  Alter natively, is there any way to install Adobe Audition 3.0 without having to go through the "validate" step? I know I could use 3.0 to create an interim XML session file and then use the XML file in Audition 2023 to convert to a SESX file, but I don't have a usable copy of Audition 3.0 anymore.

Does automatic speech alignement not work how I think it should work?  Am I using it wrong?  Or is there a bug? I have an original, noisy, track.  I recorded ADR in segments for each bit of the track.  I looked online and learned that the best way to align them was with "automatic speech alignment" in Adobe Audition. I followed the instructions here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I660VJ2S_v0 although this appears to be for a slightly older version. When I tell it to align the speech however, it doesn't appear to do anything close to that, it just takes my recording and spreads it out between the beginning and the end.  Nothing is actually "aligned" and because the segment starts out with some dead air, the resulting track is significantly less aligned than the original.The top track here is the one I am aligning to. In this image, it's after I applied significant noise reduction to the original.  The original has the same problem

I'm recording a single mono track long form narration next week, using Audition's punch/roll feature. What's a good way to record a safety track, separate from the Audition file? Route an output to another recording app? Another device?My signal flow is Sound Devices MP6ii into Audition/Macbook Pro (Ventura). I realize I could record the entire session on the MP6ii, and I may do that, but hoping for a simultaneous solution that captures the punch and roll changes.Thanks.

I'm recording a voice over on the Multitrack Editor. When you record a clip Audition will name itTrack 1_001. And the last number will increase everytime you make a new clip. It's simple and makes sense. But when I reach the 5th recording, once I do a 6th, Audition suddenly names it toTrack 1_001_1  instead of Track 1_006. Even weirder is if I later rename the file and its peak data file to 006, when I record a new clip in Audition it'll still name the new file to 001_1. I just want the filename to increase by 1 like it does for the first 5 recordings. File management is a pain now since the 001_1 and up files get pushed above the older recordings in my folder. And I have to keep manually renaming them to keep them all organized. I looked around everywhere but is there a way to fix this in the settings?

Hi, I'm using the 22 version because my main computer is struggling a little bit for Audition 23. It works fine but it's not as smooth. The 22 version is more than fine for my needs, so I disabled automatic updates  a long a time ago, not a problem. This morning, while I was working on Audition, the software crashed. When I launched it again, it was the 23 version. It did not ask me to update or anything. I tried to downgrade it but Creative Cloud doesn't offer Audition 22 anymore. Any ideas or suggestions? Is there a way for me to keep using the software I'm paying and that I was happy with? I hope so. Otherwise I'll be forced to change computer – or my editing software and workflow. Thank you very much.

I am working on a project and while I was in the middle of working I got an error popup that said, "Audition has encountered an error reading or writing to disk. we recommend you do a save of your work and restart audition." I did as it said and I went back into audition and specific clips have no audio. Does anyone know why this is? I can't get the audio back and even when I pull it up in my files and play it through apple music, there is still no audio. It also says in my audio hardware that my default unput audio is diasabled. I'm not sure if that's part of a different issue or the same.  Any help is appreciated. 

Im working in waveform editor.I have a project with 260 audio chapter files. In each chapter there may be 10-40 "lines" with markers that are appended together to make the chapter.I want to match loudness at -17 LUFS for each line. How can I do this ? if I match loudness the whole chapter file, it gives me an overall loudness of -17 LUFS but some individual files maybe lower or higher. Is there a way to "un" append, process each line, and have it all go back appended within audition workflow ?I hope Ive explained well enough to be understood.. Thank you for any feedback, help, or workflow ideas. -Scott
