Moving From AA 3.0 to Audition CC 2018 - Help?

[KenTheriot]

I have been using Adobe Audition 3.0 every day for years. I just decided I needed to get the latest version so I singed up for the CC 2018 version.

My workflow was so established in 3.0 that I'm feeling quite lost. I imagine I'll have a lot of questions in the coming days/weeks. But for now, my main question is:

Is there a way to import my "Favorites" from 3.0? I had several preset EQ settings. I could re-create them. But importing would be faster. Is this possible?

Thanks!

Unfortunately no. All the code for Audition has been completely rewritten to be cross platform compatible so most of the effects settings are now saved in a different form. So a bit of manual labour is required to transfer your settings from AA3 to the latest. You can either open both versions of Audition along side each other if you reduce the screen size of both copies. then it is relatively easy to copy the settings across. Or you could take a screen grab or mobile phone picture of the AA3 effects panels and use those to copy across the numbers.

Thanks! OK, now to figure out how to actually CREATE new favorites. I assume I can still map them to a keyboard shortcut?

Yes that's all as before, if not better. You now get an on screen keyboard graphic showing what's allocated to which key.
