Audition "Change Volume" wheel (HUD) is gone

[bernhardthilo]

Hey there,

I'm having a problem with Adobe Audition, since today that little "wheel" where I can change the volume of a track or selection is gone and I can't find any advice of how to get it back.

It might just be a stupid keyboard shortcut that hides/shows it but I couldn't get it back so far.

Also restarting Audition or resetting the workspace didn't help.

Can anyone please help me?

Found it myself that thing is called HUD,

Shortcut is [shift] + U
or got to "view" panel and select "show HUD"

*facepalm

Actually, it's HUD (Head Up Display) not HUB... (I modified the answer marked as correct from HUB to HUD so that nobody got confused as to its real name...)

What if "HUD" is not in the view menu and shift "U" doesn't make it display?

The HUD is only applicable in Waveform view so if you are in Multitrack view it isn't available.

I am in waveform. I am on audtion 1.5.

I am on audtion 1.5

That makes a lot of difference!  The HUD was introduced only in a later version of AA, possibly CS5.5 or even CS6.

I had the same problem. It was hidden on the far right of the waveform, exposing only the tiny dots on the left edge of the bar. Easy to miss. Shift-U does turn it on and off

Hello - having some issues with audition. One being HUD. I have a Udemy course am following that looks nothing like my experience also am looking for the HUD- talk to me like I'm 4- exactly where next to waveform is it? Have looked everywhere and followed steps cannot see it ANYWHERE and I'm going slowly mad!

It isn't exactly anywhere - it can be placed anywhere on the waveform or spectral display that you want it. If you want to fix it somewhere, then there's a little pin to do that with:

You can toggle it on and off with Shift+U.

Hi - that's great but.. I've done all the above "view" then made sure HUD is ticked. Have tried shift and U toggle- it never appears! Have looked all over the screen and I dunno where it's meant to appear- it definitely isn't on waveform or on edges anywhere. I've even started looking down the back of the sofa..

[SteveG_AudioMasters_]

The only place I know that you can almost hide it is on the extreme RHS of the screen with the actual waveform in it (as mentioned above) - just to the right of the L and R. It then appears as just a small vertical row of dots. If that happens, just drag the dots back into the display again and pin it. Not aware of anywhere else it can go.

The only other way for it not to turn up at all is to be looking on an earlier version of the software that doesn't have it - like Audition 1.5 or 3.0 for instance...
