I'm running Audition 12.1.4.5 on MacOS Mojave 10.4.6 (although this problem predates either of these updates). The computer is a beefy one, a top of the line Mac Pro (2013) with 32gb of memory.
I'm editing a fairly simple podcast, with one voice track a small SFX track and a music track. No fancy effects on any of it, a parametric equalizer on a couple of tracks, and Dynamics on the voice track. Nothing complex, although I do have ducking on the music track.
I get a 20-30 second beach ball on nearly every action. Simply clicking on a track, changing tools (razor to move or vice-versa), heck even click over to it just now to check the version. I get a 30sec beach ball. And the CPU is hitting 450+%, even showing as "not responsive" in the Apple Activity Monitor. It's almost impossible to be productive.
The files are located on a NAS connected with gigabit network, and the caches are all on the local SSD. The Audition memory preferences screen shows 26gb available for Audition. The local SSD has 700+gb free.
The strange thing is this doesn't always happen. Sometimes when I use Audition, it's lightning fast. Other days, this happens. I've tried rebooting, that doesn't change it. I've tried closing down everything else (Chrome for example), no change. I've tried pre-rendering effects, no help.
Anyone have any clues? This is killing my productivity.
Thanks!

Are you still able to make this happen despite your workaround? I'd like to see if I can diagnose it to see if it is a problem on our end or not. Please email audbugs a@t adobe.com mention this thread.
