Audition

I’m having issues with Audition.  I was able to use it for 10 minutes today, but then it froze.  When I tried to restart it, it will still be frozen.  I can’t even send any bug or error reports.  I tried using previous versions of Audition and they too weren’t working.  I spent like 1 or 2 hours trying to get this software to work.  I tried updating all the versions of Audition and they still freeze.  I posted a video here of what I’m experiencing so you get an idea.

new issue with Audition. If i highlight the whole waveform and delete it, the content is cleared and the scroll bar along the top is emptied, but the main editor window still hase the waveform image in view.   If I hit record this screen then clears and the recording continues, so the content has been deleted, but for some reason this ghost of the waveform remains in the viewing window until I hit record again.  This was never an issue before latest update.      

Audition completely unusable. It launches, displays the Learn Panel, and then freezes within 5–10 seconds. The UI becomes unresponsive: Menu items turn gray, the Learn Panel shows a blue highlight border, and the application stops, freezes my entire system & requires a hard reboot. This happens with every single launch, even after “clean” reinstalls and resets!I have fully uninstalled Audition, Creative Cloud, and all other Adobe apps. I have manually deleted all Adobe folders in Program Files, Program Files (x86), AppData, (Local and Roaming) removed leftover CEP, CEF, and WebView2 components, and reinstalled cleanly.Additionally, I have deleted all workspace files (except a custom “NoLearn” workspace created to attempt launching without the Learn Panel,) and edited AuditionPrefs.xml to disable it and set NoLearn as the default. I have deleted recovery files after each crash, and even attempted Shift‑launch to bypass previous sessions.Further, I have renamed Learn Panel extension

Audition 26.0.0.56 does not work properly with Huion Keydial Mini on Mac OS 15 – buttons execute different functions than assigned (it works fine on Audition 2025 though)

Every time I double click a track on the multitrack view to edit it in the waveform view, and then try to record, the input level halves or is reduced even more. If I go back out and then go back in to record again, the input level gets even smaller. This bug is HUGE and is ruining my workflow.

Hi, my my computer doesn't support AVX2 so I'm stuck using versions 23 of Premiere and After Effects which is fine. Luckily the Creative Cloud app allowed me to download these older versions.However, Audition doesn't have any option to download an older versions like many of the other apps do and the current version isn't compatible with my computer.  So how install Audition v23 which I assume works without AVX2? Thanks,-Pete

v.26 hangs on opening until force quit. 

This is actually not a bug report, but rather a feature request.  For some reason it won’t let me put in a feature request.  Here is the feature request that I’m asking for:It’s very common for me to work with multiple tracks that contain similar audio clips, often created through copy-and-paste. Sometimes this results in unintended duplicate clips stacked directly on top of each other.Because these overlapping clips aren’t always obvious visually, I’ve occasionally played back audio without realizing that multiple clips were sounding at once. This can lead to messy or confusing playback and makes troubleshooting more difficult.I propose a feature that either prevents audio clips from being placed directly on top of one another or provides a clear visual warning (such as an icon, highlight, or alert) when overlapping clips occupy the same time range on the same track.

Returned to work from vacation to find Audition had updated itself while I was away. New version is 26.0.0.56 Build. When I try to open sessions I produced in Audition 25.3.0.71, Audition comes up with the Can’t find all Media pop-up and wants me to link to the Media. When I try to link media (even if I manually try to link the media by right-clicking on the clip and selecting Link Media, it doesn’t work. I cannot seem to open old sessions with the new 2026 version. In my workplace, (radio station) I have to save all sessions to a OneDrive, accessible to all producers across the country, so anyone can work on anything. I have not tried to open an old session from my local HDD. (yet) I have reverted back to Audition 2025 so I can complete my work. Audition 2025 still opens everything normally… even from the Company OneDrive. 

I’ve posted this in Bug Reports, but no luck there so far.  Audition 26.0 has become completely unusable. It launches, displays the Learn Panel, and then freezes within 5–10 seconds. The UI turns gray, the Learn Panel shows a blue border, and the app locks up requiring a hard reboot every time.This has halted my voiceover work for over 10 days. I’ve done everything possible:•     Full uninstall of Audition, Creative Cloud, and all Adobe apps•     Manual deletion of all Adobe folders (Program Files, AppData, CEP, CEF, WebView2)•     Clean reinstall•     Workspace reset with custom “NoLearn” layout•     Edited AuditionPrefs.xml to disable Learn Panel•     Deleted recovery files after each crash•     Renamed Learn Panel extension folders•     Added dummy index.html to bypass panel content•     Disabled CEPHtmlEngine and renamed global CEP folder•     Verified WebView2 runtime•     Rebooted multiple times, tested with and without peripherals•     Confirmed no GPU, audio, or driver conflict

I work with an Archive of single speaker talks. Some have recording or transfer errors where the voice slows down and/or speeds up randomly every few seconds. Anyone have experience repairing these kind of files? There is supposed to be a way to do this in Audition, but even the support people can't find it. The manual mentions the Spectral Pitch display, but the prcedure described foesn't exist in the latest version of Auduin. Any ideas?

I am trying to make perfect ogg file loops for games using Adobe Audition, and for the longest time, this was never an issue with the app as it would create perfect loops each time for Unity.   However, the latest version gives the ogg a very brief 'pause' at the end of the loop. When I bring the loop to a different program, such as Reaper, I can see that Adobe Audition's export has left a teensy tiny bit of silence in every ogg file I export, and now in order to do my loop exports, I have to do my sound work in Adobe Audition, bring it to Reaper and then export it as a proper loop.  It's an additional step, with an additional app. This used to work in previous versions of Adobe Audition.  Is there any way to fix this? I'm currently using, 25.6.0.97 on Windows 11

I installed the new version of Audition today, and proceeded to rip nearly 60 tracks (some over one hour in duration) from various compact discs. Listening to one of the files just now, I heard a short (less than one second) dropout toward the end. I have since visually inspected a couple of files, but found no obvious dropouts. Has anyone else had this problem with version 25.6.0.97?

Hi!I'm having some issues when I apply "Dynamics processing" and the "sidechain" effect and links that to autoduck the music under speak.In the Multitrack view it works as supposed, but when I mixdown the multitrack to a single file, it applied the "Dynamics processing" effect on the entire track, instead of only when the ducking should be applied during speech. It used to work flawlessly, but for some reason after updating to Audition 2020, it doesn't work as it's supposed to anymore. I've tried creating a new track and using that, but the effect is the same. Thank you in advance. Best regards,Patrick

Hello, I’ve run into a strange issue with Adobe Audition. After watching the Help → Learn Audition video, one of my screens suddenly turns completely black. The black screen only appears when Audition is running – if I quit the application it disappears, but as soon as I relaunch Audition, the black screen comes back. System details: •  macOS 15.7.2•  MacBook Pro (M1 Max chip)•  Adobe Audition (latest Creative Cloud release) I haven’t tried any fixes yet, so I’d appreciate advice from anyone who has experienced the same behaviour or knows how to resolve it. Thanks in advance.

When inserting a short clip (seconds not minutes) into a new multitrack session, clip shows up at the END of a very long time line. Any ideas?

I have a recording of someone delivering a speech. There's a moment where he says something funny, but he says the wrong word in the punchline. The viewers will know what he meant, so it'll still work if we can't fix this, but I'm curious: does Adobe have a (likely AI-powered?) tool that can make him say a different word? (I'm posting this same question in the Premiere Pro community, in case that is the better place for this.) I checked, he does not say the word anywhere else in the speech, so I can't pull it from elsewhere and edit it in. 

This is not reporting an issue in Audition (I don't think), this seems to be an issue with two VST3 plugins:TBTECH - Kirchhoff-EQFiedler Audio - SplatThese are the only two plugins I've found that have this issue.If either effect are opened such that they are first drawn to an extended desktop monitor, it crashes Audition, everytime.So, anytime I need to open either of them, I must first unplug my external monitor to ensure they are drawn to the primary display.  I can then plugin external monitor and then I can move either plugin onto that extended desktop without issue. I'm posting this, not because I'm trying to find a solution but to provide this workaround for others who run into this issue.

I'm thinking of on DLSR cameras you can bracket exposure, take photos as flat exposure and then +/- 2/3 or 1 or whatever. Is that possible on Adobe Audition? I've searched on the Internet — and maybe I'm not searching for the right thing — but found nothing.

I downloaded the trial version of Adobe Audition. I ended up not using it and I’m not satisfied with it. Now Adobe is trying to charge me 27 euros per month. I can’t find the button to cancel the subscription. It also doesn’t appear in my plans. I do not use the program and I do not have it installed on my computer.

This just started happening yesterday for me and is driving me nuts. I use the 5 clipboards extensively to cut and paste audio while I'm editing but Audition is now randomly but frequently selecting my entire audio clip and copying it to the clipboard. This is then overwriting what I've already saved to the clipboard and instead of pasting the one small audio clip I'm trying to paste, I'm pasting the entire audio file. To workaround it I'm having to quickly copy to my Clipboard and then switch to a second Clipboard before the random Select All/Copy happens. Searching the internet I've found the primary suggestion is to delete the temporary files and/or the preferences and start fresh. System:PCWindows 11Adobe Audition 2025 (but it's happening in 2024 and 2023 as well) Steps I've taken: Backed up (exported) my preference filesDeleted the Temporary directories and restartedReset all Audition preferencesDisabled all of my pluginsCharged my mouse in case it's a blu

I'm having the same problem, but on my imac. Just updated to mac OS Sequoia 15.7.2 last week. I've tried everything to resolve the issue. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Audition, reset Audition's preferences, installed the previous version of Audition, reached out to 3 different support tech people at Adobe--nothing's helped. For me, it crashes when I select an Effect in the Effects Rack. But only once... then it lets me do it about 6 more times before it crashes again. So weird! I hope Adobe fixes this issue asap. It's unbelievably frustrating, as I use it all day for my work.
