Good morning Audition fans.

As promised, I wanted to share the news and state of Adobe Audition as well as answer your questions about the new release and what the future holds. 

First, Adobe announced the release of CS 5.5 Monday morning to coincide with our presence at the NAB convention in Las Vegas, NV.  Among the updates to the other applications in the Production Premium suite, the big news from my perspective was the inclusion of Audition into the Production Premium and Master Collection suites.  Soundbooth, the previous audio tool offered in the Suite, has been discontinued.

Next, a little bit of history:  Adobe purchased Syntrillium 8 years ago in order to provide an audio solution to their video and broadcast production users.  At the time, Premiere Pro was a Windows-only NLE and Cool Edit, now Audition, was a great fit in the original Video Suite.  However, as Adobe recognized the value in the Suite model for users and the bottom-line, the other applications were updated to support Apple and Windows users.  The Audition team looked at the 15 years of legacy Windows code and were not confident the application could be ported quickly enough to satisfy the CS release schedule.  As an audio editor was necessary in the suite package, we created Soundbooth which was a simple audio editor built on top of Premiere Pro's media playback engine.  This enabled the team to provide value to the Suite, but the limitations of a playback engine crafted to handle large video files was not ideal for detailed audio production.  As a tool to assist with basic audio editing and restoration needs for a primarily video and motion graphics audience, it did find a userbase who appreciated the simplicity and ease of use, although leaving audio professionals and more savvy users wanting more.

Immediately after each release of Soundbooth, the team continued working on Audition but it was apparent that Adobe did not need two audio tools in production and the more popular application was absolutely Audition.  We made the commitment to build Audition as a fully cross-platform solution and replace Soundbooth in the line-up, offering the power and fidelity of Audition without making the transition for Soundbooth fans too jarring.  For at least the past 7 years that I've been with the team, the most-requested feature has unequivocably been "Bring Audition to the Mac!"  There are numerous on-line petitions and forum threads demanding this happen.

So we've spent the past two years re-writing Audition from the ground-up, preserving or updating our core DSP, modernizing the code to take advantage of current hardware and operating system technology, and emphasizing increased productivity and speed with every feature.  Updating or completely rewriting 15 years of C++ code takes time, and we recognized rather quickly that we were not going to reach feature parity with Audition 3.01 with this release.  We continuously prioritized our feature database based on our visits with customers big and small, and our awesome, secret, pre-release team.  Our core userbase has always been broadcast - radio, podcast, and video - and our focus for the CS 5.5 release was to build a platform that supported those workflows but remained open and flexible enough that expanding the application to support other audio users would be simple and straightforward.  As we approached the end of our development cycle, I think everyone on the team and in our pre-release program recognized how strong this application is and will be moving forward, even if some of our pet features did not make it into this release yet.

In the next post, I'll describe what's new in Audition CS 5.5, what didn't make it into the application yet, and what we hope to accomplish in the next release.  As I mentioned before, Adobe has publicly committed to a more open release schedule with a major release approximately every 24 months with an additional mid-cycle release.  Not only will this allow us to bring more features to you more quickly, but will help with any hardware updates and purchasing decisions our users may encounter.  Additionally, and currently Audition is not part of this program yet, Adobe is offering installations on a subscription model with all upgrades rolled into the cost.  It will be interesting to hear feedback from our users how this solution works for their needs.

Hi,

I'm a complete newbie to Audition in general. CS6 is my first look at it. I'm trying to lower the pitch of a clip (like making a voice deeper). However the only thing I can find is the "Automcatic Pitch Correction" effect and the "Raise Pitch"/"Lower Pitch" in the favourites menu. When applying the "Raise Pitch"/"Lower Pitch" from favourites it says "Applying Stretch and Pitch..." in the dialog box. I can't find these options anywhere. I am certain I am missing something, I just don't know what, and google hasn't been much help.

Any help much appreciated!

Started a recording last night with multiple wav files. Audition crashed about 2 or 3 times during recordings, but became stable after a while (after continuing the session). When recoring was done, I saved the file and everything seemed to be working correctly and closed the program no files were missing at this point. When I came in this morning, Audition said that some wav files were missing. So i searched all over the computer and temp files but couldn't find a single trace of them. What happened to the files?

More info:

OS: Windows 7

Version: Audition CS6

Temp directory: Default

Last working state: Last night

Non-working state: Morning after (PC went into sleep mode over-night)

Working wav files sequence: Track 1_065.wav , Track 1_066.wav , Track 1_067.wav , etc..

Missing files: Track 1_006_1.wav , Track 1_012.wav , & Track 1_019.wav

Thank You

I have a stem from my score that needed updating, and so that specific stem was tweaked and exported out as it's own file.

In my Audition Multitrack session, I would like to replace just that one stem, but still maintain all the edits and changes that I made in the multitrack editor. Is there a way to "Replace File" so that I can point it to this new Version 2, and maintain all my multitrack changes downstream?

Hi, I've been having significant difficulty getting Adobe Audition CC to continue playing when the Audition window a.) loses focus or b.) is minimized. I've done a lot of looking around in this forum and other places, but haven't yet figured out what's going on here. I suspect it has to do with an ASIO driver conflict, but I can't nail down where exactly. 

I'm using Windows 7 Enterprise (64-bit), with a Digigram VX222HR soundcard.  The soundcard is synched to a digital board console via a digital AES-EBU connection.  I have 8 GB of RAM, and have experienced no other problems with the computer recently.  This problem is fairly recent, and I noticed it started when I had to reinstall a fresh copy of Windows 7 Enterprise on my production computer. I've installed the latest driver for the VX222HR, and have checked the "Enable multi-client mode" box mode.

I've also made sure that the proper soundcard inputs and outputs are selected in the Windows Control Panel.  The sample rates and everything else appear to be working correctly. In fact, Audition sounds great in all other respects, so long as I never click on anything outside of the application. As mentioned previously, I suspect there is a driver conflict, because occasionally Audition does occasionally allow audio to continue playing when it's no longer the dominant window on my desktop. 

I know that in previous versions of Audition, there was an option to "Release ASIO driver in background."  But that option is not displayed when I click Edit > Preferences > Audio Hardware Setup. 

One other note:  It's no problem for any other set of applications to play multiple audio sources at the same time using the same ASIO configured soundcard.  For example, I can play music from Windows Media Player and a YouTube video at the same time.  So the soundcard can clearly handle this.  However, Audition CC appears to be the only program that will not cooperate. 

If other programs are playing audio, it will not play audio.  And the reverse is true as well.  If other applicatoins are playing audio while Audition is open but not doing anything, Audition will not be able to play any audio subsequently. It's as if the program completely freezes, and will not even respond to menu commands momentarily.  I usually have to a.) close the other application and b.) restart Audition CC to get it to start playing audio again. 

I've been scouring the Adobe forums and doing Google searches far and wide, and am thoroughly stumped as to why this is happening.  And why Audition will occasionally actually change it's behavior and continue playing audio even when minimized, seemingly at random.  Appreciate any guidance on what's going on -- and how I can possibly fix it.  (I work at a public radio station, and there are a couple of production workstations using the same soundcard model that are affected by this.)  Thanks.

I've watched the tutorials on removing sounds but they always demonstrate background sounds I can barely hear to begin with and I have a different issue. I have a video with a large group of people which are speaking in the background and those speaking into the mic can be heard but barely understood with all the people speaking in the background. Can I use Audition to fix this or another Adobe product?

Can anyone help me with the following problem?

I have a system running WIndows 7 with a Xonar DX2 sound card that has worked fine since installation (6 months ago), now when I start CS6 I get the 'MME device internal error' message.

This is a MME sound card and is using its latest drivers (7.12.8.1794).

The Audio Hardware settings are:

Device Class:     MME

Default Input:     Line In (ASUS Xonar DX2 Audio Device)

Default Output:     Speakers (ASUS Xonar DX2 Audio Device)

Master Clock:     Speakers (ASUS Xonar DX2 Audio Device)

Latency:     200ms

Sample Rate:     44100Hz

'Use machine-specific device defaults' is enabled

Hey I have never had this problem before with all earlier versions of Adobe Audition. I just bought CS5.5 and tried to load the Waves plug ins I always use and they do not all load into the program. Some do load in, but unfortunatly not the ones I use most often. Any Ideas?

Installation of Audition seemed to go ok.  However, when it boots it reports that:  "Loading the default input and output devices failed: MME internal device error..."   I also get the error after I set the audio devices to either "ASIO" or "MME".   Likewise, Audition will not output to the audio device (MOTU HD192 ASIO).

Hi there,

First, I have to let you know I'm really a newbie regarding audio recording/sound editing.

So, I have this video that was recorded on European standards and this audio track that was sent to me and which was recorded on US standards.

I ended up having an audio track much shorter than my video despite the fact it is complete. It is synced at the start and then it naturally falls out of sync. Sample rates and bit rates are the same, I made sur of that.

From what I gathered you can set your recorder to match a specific video fps. I found this software, Wave Agent, that enables you to change the "audio fps" (even though it is not proper to call it this way they do). Increasing it to 30 fps made it better. But I needed to go over that limit and this software wouldn't allow me to do that. So here I am (not quite rocking it like a hurricane), trying to figure out how I could solve this issue in Audition. Any solution? Or at least hints? I've been trying for over 15 hours, I'm starting to run out of solutions.

Thanks a bunch!
Celine

I am incredibly confused and a little frustrated, hopefully someone can help me out.

• OSX 10.9.5
• Audition CC 2014.2
• Blue Yeti Pro USB Mic
• Apple Midi Setup: Output: 192000.0 Hz, Input: 192000.0 Hz
• Apple Sound: Set to BLUE USB Audio 2.0
• Audition Audio Hardware Preferences
• New Audio File @ 192000 Hz
• Sample Rate Error

Somehow I have gotten this to work before. 192000 Hz recording in Audition. No amount of fiddling with settings, rebooting, or otherwise can get me any higher than 96000. 96000 only works if I downgrade the Apple Midi Setup to 96000, which makes sense as the error message implies it needs to be the same as Apple Midi. How come I cannot get Audition to record at 192000 when I am setting Apple Midi Setup to 192000?

If I uncheck the, "Attempt to force hardware to document sample rate" the "Sample Rate" menu does not go any higher than 96000, even though Apple Midi Setup is set to 1920000. For fun here is a screenshot of the Audio Channel Mapping.

Hello!

I'm new to Adobe Audition and the forums. I've received some wonderful assistance so far, so I was hoping this amazingly patient community of experts would be willing to give me some pointers for improving my audio files. I'm starting a new podcast (PNRRadio.com) and I've interviewed a few people via Skype. The general Skype-to-Skype audio calls are pretty decent and I don't have any complaints. I use MP3 Skype Recorder (for now), which splits my audio onto one channel and the caller(s) onto another channel. This gives me the opportunity to also use Adobe Audition to record my side of the conversation at studio quality and I put them together for the final interview.

I have two problems:

1. MP3 Skype Recorder Going Away - I'm getting a message on Skype that 3rd party programs will no longer be supported, so it seems I might be losing MP3 Skype Recorder as an option. I believe I tried to use the plugin for Skype FROM Skype, but it records the audio together, NOT splitting it into the two channels. Does anyone know a suitable alternative if I lose MP3 Skype Recorder?
2. Cell-to-Skype Not So Good - There are some instances where the person I'm interviewing doesn't have a Skype account and has to call me from their cell phone or a LAN. GAWD what a horrible sound! Muffled and harsh at the same time. I haven't a clue about how to improve the quality of the audio.

Here's an example clip of the original audio.

Here's the best I can do in cleaning it up.

And if you go to this link, you can listen to an interview I did that was Skype-to-Skype. WORLDS better, if you ask me!

Here's what I did to get the results for the sound clip I cleaned up:

I have NO CLUE as to what I'm doing. I went into these effects and played around. Any suggestions?

Thank you thank you thank you to any input that can help me! I appreciate your time!

Best,

Arial

Supply Information about the Crash

Hello,

In both Audition CS5.5 and CS6, when the user inserts multiple files into a multitrack session, they are placed on multiple tracks. (As the help file says, "The files are inserted on separate tracks at the current time position"). Please change this to allow multiple files to be inserted onto a single track.

I can understand the usefulness of the current behaviour in some scenarios, but there are other workflows in which the placement of multiple files on multiple tracks is a serious hindrance.

E.g. In this thread, a user mentions needing to insert 10,000 individual files for dialogue editing and mixing.

I also posted in that thread because my own workflow involves editing hundreds of individual files, which are single notes recorded for the production of virtual instruments.

The reason why a "one-track multitrack" workflow is useful to me is that it allows great flexibility in processing multiple files individually or at once, comparing them, adding markers, fades, etc.

It would also be useful when bringing in any audio that has been recorded in consecutive chunks - field recordings, concerts, Foley sessions, etc.

In the thread, another user suggested inserting all the files onto a single track in Premiere Pro, then bringing that project into Audition as a multitrack session. Unfortunately this creates another problem for me, because it renames all the audio with the suffix "extracted". My workflow requires me to keep the original file names, because these are used downstream when mapping the recorded notes in the virtual instrument.

Thanks for reading and please consider this for a future update.

I recorded a podcast yesterday using Audition on a Mac. There was nothing wrong the live feed from my link USB, but when I went to edit the audio in Audition, there was a lot of humming/crackling/electrical short sounds. Does anyone know what could possibly cause this and/or how to repair? Thanks!

Buen día

El problema que tengo es que al momento de reproducir un archivo de audio el puntero de tiempo se congela y no reproduce el archivo.

Desde hace ya dos meses tengo este problema en una institución educativa (SENA-Colombia). El problema surge tiempo después de trabajar con el programa porque al inicio funciona normalmente. Al principio me surgió el problema con equipos MAC y actualmente tengo el mismo inconveniente con PCs. No es un caso aislado ya que tengo 15 equipos MAC y 3 PC con este inconventiente y he probado reinstalando el programa, aplicando el Adobe Cleaner (Con el programa Adobe Premiere tuve el mismo inconveniente pero se solucionó con el adobe cleaner) y ninguna de estas dos opciones ha funcionado. Necesito ayuda urgente ya que con estos equipos los estudiantes aprenden a manejar la herramienta y la Institución pagó mucho dinero por las licencias como para que nos toque trabajar con software libre o revisar otras opciones.

Muchas gracias por la atención y estoy atenta a comentarios y sugerencias.
