Is it possible to batch-export ONLY the markers for a list of files? (Adobe Audition 2018)

Question

So essentially I am using Audition to preprocess stimuli for an experiment I am running. I cut longer audiofiles into separate files (one for each sentence). For each of these sentences I need to know the position of 4 specific words (i.e.the 'trigger word', the word before and after the trigger word, and the last word). The markers function was very helpful, in that I could quickly go through a 100 files at a time to determine the position, but now that I need to export that data, it seems that I can only export markers from one file at a time to a CSV.

I'd like to know if it's possible to export the markers to CSV for a large number of files, such that one column contains the filename, and the other column contains the markers for that file. I've looked through a number of forums, but haven't been able to find anything useful.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

best,

Jelle

You can't export audio from markers on their own, but you can from marker ranges - there's a difference:

When you click on this, you will get options to export each range as a file, and you also have an option, if you rename them, of using the marker names as file names.

To create a marker range, either select the marker at each end of the piece you want and hit F8, or if you have a range of individual markers at each end of clips (and there are no more extraneous ones in the file) then you can highlight all of the markers in your marker list, and convert them all to ranges using the button immediately to the right of the dustbin - two to the left of the one I've circled.
