I just started using Adobe Audition after years of Audacity and FL. It's got some powerful features I like but there is a design choice that I just can not wrap my head around and I think it's gonna make me quit this program if I don't find a solution:
Why can't I undo edits made in the effects applied to clips or tracks? For example, when I tinker with the EQ or FFT and I end up not liking the edits - there's no way to undo them, Audition does not register those steps as undoable and it starts undoing other stuff while leaving the changes I made as they are. So I have to manually recreate the effect parameters as they were before the changes.
I find this program behavior is stifling my creativity and my naturally experimental approach to editing audio, as I have to very carefully plan around the fact that whatever I do can't be undone. Yes I can duplicate the effect and turn it off while I experiment on the copy, but it's all very cumbersome and doesn't allow for instantaneous undo/redo.
Same thing applies to track volume and pan settings.
Is there a way to make these edits undoable?
Bonus question: what's the logic behind such a design choice? I'm struggling to think of a benefit to this.
