Marking Audition audio files with Metadata

Dear Audition Experts,

I have a critical need to record and edit cits in Audition and then play them back on a broadcsat type player.

But forever (that is, since physical tape cartridges were used) this playback relied on an analog "sub-audible" cue system that utilized START / INTRO / OUTRO / and END marker cues to allert the disc jockey to these maker times on the song with a series of lamps.

Now it LOOKS LIKE Audition still does support these markers (and more) in Meta-Data per the screen shot below (version unknown.) But I CANNOT find this pull-down in the current downladed version of Audition (build 23.2.0.68)

Does anyone know if tehse Meta-Data markers are still supported and how to create and edit them?

Many Thanks

They are all still there - this is a screen-grab from the current version:

You select Cart Timer for the Type of cue, and the pulldown at the RH side of the cue label (both ringed in red) to select the particular action you want, but you can't give it a unique name. It's done like this because these cues are written into the wav file's metadata, unlike normal cue data which is appended to the end of your wav file.
