An option to attach markers to clips in multitrack view, rather than attaching them to the timeline

[mattbaume]

Currently in Audition's multitrack editor, markers can only be attached to the timeline. It would be helpful to have an option to attach markers to individual clips, so that when those clips are moved in the timeline the markers move with them.

The only way to achieve this right now is to go into waveform view and place a marker there. This is pretty inconvenient and involves a lot of clicking back and forth between views.

it will be very handy

This literally renders audition UNUSABLE

I work on community radio compiling classical and jazz programs. I keep loosing the beginnings of works, or cant identify them because the point markers will not move with the clip. Its so time consuming to have to write the details, then write them again as soon as they are moved. Working from home, as so many of us are, you need all the speed and practicality you can get! Thank you.

I don't think it's very complicated to get this done. because if you can specify at a marker whether it should be connected to the timeline or to a specified clip/clipgroup (which may be on tracks below it. ) then only the clips/clipgroup you move should include the markers. and leave the rest of the markers where they are.

There is a similar request.

Wow, this has been hindering my workflow for years. Absolutely desperately needed.

This is EXTREMELY crucial. I produce a podcast of the same name as my username (you can find it on Odysee), and Audition has become our last resort production software for this venture - rather than our first. I have been actually switching to Cakewalk for the content-editing portion of our production, because Cakewalk includes the "rippling" function - which means you can move a clip, and ALSO move everything that comes after it - including markers. (And no, inserting dead space or removing very set points on the timeline does not count as a "ripple" functionality in my opinion. I don't always know how the audio waveforms are gonna line-up until I try it a few times, so what Audition calls "ripple delete" is kind of useless to me anyway)

This is such an elementary functionality for content producers, I don't know how Adobe could manage to put it on a "backlog," much less not have it implemented from the start. I have seen threads going back to 2017 regarding this lack in functionality, and it's such an obvious necessity I'm not even sure why we should have to vote on it.

Even DaVinci Resolve, which we use for the Video portion of the production (and is Free), would be easier to content-edit with as it includes the ripple feature as well - but unfortunately, its audio engineering engine is still inferior to Audition, so I'm kind of stuck. Would be great if you gave us another reason to use Audition as our primary content editing App, but judging by the lack of urgency assigned to this topic, I'm not gonna hold my breath anytime soon.

If so, please continue to leave a shadow of where the marker was (maybe in a different grayed out color) I use this to go back to and highlight sections often.

Finally.... finallyyyyyyyyyy... i tested the update... and its woooorking... finallyyyyyyyyyy

[Dr. Coder]

You obviously need some better project and product managers. This feature must have been thought while you were adding marker feature.

Keyframes also have similar issues. How wouldn't you think of anchoring keyframes to audio clip instead of timeline. Apparently you develop the app as if you are wearing blinders... It has been suggested 3 years ago. THREE YEARS

Have you ever compared Audition with other DAWs??? I regret choosing Audition...

[James2017]

Hi Valbhavi, Have you implemented the ability to attach markers to clips yet in the multitrack? Can you update? Thanks. It's really urgent.

I just finished indexing multiple takes in a voice over. Placed markers in waveform view. They do not show the label in multitrack. The poor mans workaround, Import the audition marked clips in premere pro, where the labels do show, sort, pick and assemble my final timeline, then round trip this project back to Audition.

I would like to know why the most basic of functional items have been absent for YEARS from audition. Is it the coding framework, you are rewriting from the ground up to make a better app & just aren't investing effort in the current version, etc.

Folders in the project window, markers that universally transport with clips (mark in multi track, it shows in clip edit. Mark in clip edit, it shows in multi track. Edit the info anywhere, it changes everywhere.

This is day one planning the app stuff, not years later begging for stuff.

Would a slight modification be possible? when we place markers in the editor view, the same clip imported into the multitrack has the marks of the track markers inside. I find it thick That these markers are barely visible on multitrack, with a 1920x1080 monitor... Now that I have a 4k monitor, the markers are much thinner and less obvious. Is it possible to provide? Or in the options insert a slider where the user can decide the degree of thickness of the makers.

[Nicky G.]

I often find myself doing dj sets on ableton and marking "locator" markers, could you make Audition read these locators from the ableton Asl file to import them as markers and Store them in MP3,wav files.... It would be helpful
