Microphone issue when recording

Question

I have recently used Adobe Audition for vocal recordings. It was working perfectly today( I am using a pc, sure sm87 with a Scarlett solo, ) However, after unplugging the microphone and plugging it in again. the audio became very bad when recording. The audio was repeating( stuttering) , and had lots of background noise, to make sure it wasn't my mic. I tested it in audacity and it sounded perfect. I don't recall changing any settings in adobe, why is my audio sounding so bad all of a sudden?  How can I fix it?

Audacity and Audition don't use the same audio drivers, or even drive class, as a rule. Ideally you should be using an ASIO driver with Audition, but it's not obligatory - it should work with an MME driver too. That said, it's worth checking that the driver you have installed is up to date - Focusrite have definitely upgraded the Scarlett driver at least once, so it's worth checking that first.
