Newbie: Audition not responsive to commands?

Question

This will sound odd.Having switched to Audtion from Audacity, I was hoping for superior filters, EQ, etc. I do like Audition better for usability. However, I have just spent a half-hour tweaking my final edit in order to De-Es a little further (I had already done Comp, EQ, De-Es, etc. But I swear not matter what I do in EQ or De-Es now, I do not hear a bit of difference -- even when, as a test, I jacked up all the low frequencies and then the highs. No difference in sound. Same with De-Es -- whether I used a 20db or 80 db threshold, it sounded the same. Have I missed something, other than my hearing?

Thanks again. Yes the effect was definitely turned on. It seems to have rectified when I shut it down and restarted, though the EQ is not as responsive as I expect. I am going to launch a new project and see what happens.

Well, how much effect the EQ has depends on which of the EQ options you choose, what you specify by way of presets (if any) and how you adjust your controls Some of the presets are very subtle while others make a huge difference. If you want to give us a few details of what you're using and what settings you have we can try to offer some advice.

First of all are you working in the Multitrack view or in the Waveform edit view? It makes a difference in how the effects are added depending which view you are working in.
