Question

Start Play jumps about 30 secs forward (old Version 2.0)

I think I may have hit a key I shouldn't have! LOL

In Edit mode, starting play from the cursor now jumps ahead approx 30 secs & then starts playing from there (I've also got Audition CS6, which is OK).

I've restored the user settings folder 2.0 in C:/users/name/roaming/adobe/audition, & that fixes the problem.

However, when I try to record, it then starts going funny there with jumping.

Then when I go back to Edit mode/play the jumping forward exists again.

As it's a very old version, I can't expect much of a response, but thought I'd try here, before to a complete re-install, or only start using the CS6 version. Big thanks to anyone who can help.

Gary

Okay, it's admissions time. I have to say from the outset that Audition 2 was the darkest part of Audition's history. It should never have been released, and it wouldn't have been if Adobe corporate had listened to, and taken notice of, the developers. This was all a matter of 'co-ordinated time scales' and was rather unfortunate. Wanna know what a mid-range beta release was like back then? You got it - Audition 2. I know - I was there. Got the teeshirt, eaten the stew, edited one of the books about it (I'm not saying which one, but a heck of a lot of it is actually me...)

 

Basically, the fix for Audition 2 was Audition 3. No, I don't have Audition 2 on any machines at all now, so it's hard to suggest anything sensible apart from one thing: try right-clicking on the Record button (or possibly the Play button as well) and see if that reveals anything. But I have to say that in terms of stability, if nothing else, the CS6 version is a vast improvement - I'd stick with that if you don't want to upgrade further, because at least it will run perpetually.
