Question

Having to switch audio hardware when switching to waveform edit?

I'm new to Audition and to multitrack recording. I'm making some cover songs and it's really annoying everytime I switch to waveform to edit an audio track, I have to go into the audio hardware setting to change the device class from ASIO to MME in order to hear playback. Then I have to switch back to ASIO in multitrack to continue working on my song. Is this normal and is there a way to not having to switch back and forth? Thanks for any help.

No it's not normal - but I think that all it means is that the default playback settings in Preferences are incorrect:

These are off this laptop, but the principle's the same. By using the twirl-downs on the RHS you should be able to select ASIO channels to play back through.

Thank you SteveG! You were right, it didn't realize I had to change the settings in the audio channel mapping for the sound to come through in waveform editor.
