How can I remove vocals from audio song recordings with Audition 5.5 on a Macintosh 10.6.8 to create playback versions of
songs for practicing voice students ? These will be Karaoke like tracks ( non-commercial use )
Hi - Please forgive my ignorance I have a lot to learn about audio recording but I have searched these forums and the web extensively as well as trial and error and I'm stumped.
I've just got a copy of Adobe Audition and have been asked to create audio prompts for a unity Connection (CISCO) phone system.
The parameters I've been given are as follows:
Bit rate: 64kbps
Audio sample size: 8 bit
Channels: 1 (mono)
Audio sample rate: 8khz
Audio format: CCITT U-law
I think I have found where to adjust all of the parameters above except the audio format.
I found information proclaiming that these audio prompts can be created with Audition (even recomended) but no actual step by step instructions.
I also found some free conversion tools. I tried recording it with Audition and converting. The quality is severely worse off after conversion. I guess this is to be expected with 8 bit but I would like to have the best quality possible.
I got a decent sounding 8-bit recording in Audition but in the properties of the resulting .wav file for the file details it states encoder settings: PCM:
Whereas the one I convert with the free converter shows Encoder Settings: CCITT u-Law
SO my question is... How can I get the ecoder settings to read CCITT u-Law when saving/exporting directly from Audition?
And any tips for maximizing the quality of the recording are appreciated. You can see the settings I chose above.
Many thanks for any guidance you can provide.
Best,
Aimee
Hi folks,
I'm a long-time user through Cool Edit to the current version (skipping CS5). I've upgraded and I've been tentatively trying out CS6. Yesterday, I started my first full session in 6 for a soundtrack on a deadline. It feels now like a massive mistake. I'm just wondering am I missing out on something as regards setup or optimization because its performance is well below 3.0 which I also have installed on this machine. The project has a 48hr deadline and I'm at the point of bouncing stems and going back to 3.0 because I just can't afford to use CS6 today. Here's my issues which perhaps someone can give me advice on. It's a pretty decent new laptop running Windows 7. If there are some optimisation tricks I'm missing, please let me know as I couldn't see anything I could change in the settings.
1. Crashes - it crashed numerous times. It just stops working and that is the only error message I get. I think this is related to the number of VSTs I'm using. But it's a lot less than I use on the same machine with v3.0. It's happened sometimes even when it was an Audition native effect I was adding. Which brings me to my next point..
2. VSTs. It just doesn't seem to handle them as well as v3.0. Slowdowns, dropouts, buzzing, I'm so disappointed at how the machine seems to be slowing down after using about half the plugins I'd use in 3.0. The slowdown is infuriating and unworkable. Which brings me to my next point..
3. Pre-render. I have a group of drum tracks that I wanted to pre-render as the machine was slowing down. But after pre-render, half of the track is gone! It's muted somehow, I play up to a certain point and the tracks disappear. If I switch off pre-render, they're back again, but I can't do that as the machine slows down too much.
4. Workspace. It just seems harder to work with. Too many boxes and I just can't seem to find a right zoom level for working with clips. Moving clips just seems so much harder than 3.0. The clip properties box is so annoying because if I need to make a minute timing adjustment, if I click in the wrong place when choosing a playback position to choose from, the box changes to something else such as session properties. Which brings me to my next point..
5. Introducing lag! After I'd got to about 7 tracks, CS6 started introducing huge lag in newly recorded tracks. Really infuriating. So I'm having to re-align newly recorded tracks with the old ones, which is just not as easy as in 3.0 as I said above.
As I say, frustrating on a deadline. It's terrible that I feel I made a mistake using the newer version than the old one when something important was at stake.

Is there a product with just the sound editing capabilities of Audition?

Is anybody else having problems with the metronome in CS6? Twice last night it seemed to botch the beat and trip me up while I was recording. (In the end, I imported a click track from FL studio, and quickly got the recording done.)
Hi,
I'm having a bizarre issue using my Wacom Intuos 4 tablet with Audition CS6. When I drag a clip around with my pen in a multitrack project, if I drag too slowly, the cursor keeps moving but the clip stops moving altogether. If I speed up, it immediately jumps to wherever the cursor is once it's moving fast enough. It's making precise editing kinda difficult.
I've had this problem on a couple of different computers. It isn't happening in Audition CS5.5 (still installed), or if I use a mouse in CS6. I've updated both Audition and the Wacom drivers.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Hi Im having some problems with Audition CS6 mac. I have the full master collection and only encounter this issue with Audition.
On my Macbook pro
I use my internal speakers/audio or a vrm box audio interface, occasionally Ill use a fasttrack pro to record. My problem occurs after I use the audio interface. When I next open Audition set up for the built in speakers/audio and hit play, it says playing but nothing plays.
When I open Audition after using a external interface going back to my built in macbook audio I get a pop warning that:
"Your systems audio hardware settings have changed. Would you like to go review Audition's audio hardware preferences?"
I click yes, go to that everything is set for internal mac audio,
hit play, says playing bottom left, then just sits there.
I noticed today when it did this, that it if I go into the Audio Channel Mapping Preference, it shows what ever audio interface I used last on the output/not working on it. I am unable to change theses settings.
I reboot after changing audio interfaces, etc.
I can delete my Audition preference files in my user folder and it functions again, but that also entails rescanning all plugins which takes some time.
I'm using a Roland UA-3FX interface with Audition 5.5 on windows 7.
If I load in a drum loop on one track and then record some bass on another track (monitoring direct though my interface), the recorded bass is slightly but noticably delayed from the drums.
As I understand it, the ASIO driver and Audition, between them, should be working out any latency and compensating for it.Any settings I can fiddle with? Can't find anything.
I did try using the ASIO4All driver which does have adjustable latency compensation in its settings, but this either wasn't enough or didn't do anything at all (not sure which!)
If it's an issue with the driver for the UA-3FX, can anyone else recommend a good small interface which can record in time?it's a shame 'cos the UA-3FX actually sounds great.

How can I remove vocals from audio song recordings with Audition 5.5 on a Macintosh 10.6.8 to create playback versions of

I have been using Audition 3 on Windows and am currently migrating to Mac platform. I was able to make a stereo track out of 2 mono ones on Windows but cannot find the same feature in this release i.e the procedure (see below) cannot be followed because in the Mac Mix Paste window there is no 'Overlap' to be selected or unlock button for L/R channels, as well as no volume adjustment.(see below)
Can you tell me if this is a feature that has been deliberately overlooked, but may be in the final version - is there a way of doing this operation that I have missed. Maybe someone knows the answer to these questions. It was a very useful feature in Audition which Soundbooth does not have.
thanks

Audition CS6 requires a serial number entry everytime I start the program. How do I fix this.? It is very annoying and If I get locked out of the program before I fix the dance recital music Its not going to go well for me here.
Hi,
Thanks in advance for your help. I took an online course in Audition, but there are a few specific things that were not covered (and that I can't figure out on my own). This is one of them.
(You may need to scroll all the way down to see everything).
For the purposes of troubleshooting, I have a track soloed.
When I set the 5.1 pan settings like this, I hear sound out of the rear speakers (as I should):
When I set my speakers as shown in either of the below pictures, I hear NO sound out of either of the rear speakers (front speakers work fine). Notice, the ONLY thing that has changed between Pictures 1 and 2 is the ANGLE. All I did in Picture 3 is set the radius to 0%.
Why is this? I'm thinking I don't get the concept of how this works. I thought the white lines basically signified relative volume levels from each speaker.
Moreover, in the above-right scenario (the one with 0% radius), I can hear sound out of the LEFT, RIGHT, and CENTER speakers, but when I click the L and R buttons to mute the left and right speakers (shown below) I now hear nothing out of ANY speakers, including the Center speaker, which worked fine a second ago. Also, do I understand correctly that when the radius is at 0%, the 'Angle' and 'Stereo Spread' knobs do nothing?

Please do not mistake this thread for a dupe of the other thread of a similar topic, I'd like to give a more in depth opinion of the new version of Audition compared to its predecessor.
For the past five years I have spent many hours of most days experimenting with audio, specifically audio restoration. I tried countless other applications before discovering Audition and none could offer what I was looking for. When I did discover Audition (version 3), about 3 years ago, it is one of the very few pieces of software I have since installed on every computer I use. It was extremely easy to use whilst having an incredible array of functions. The help manual was extremely comprehensive, giving detailed instructions and explanation of every single option in Audition, this alone I thought deserves praise. The program constantly delighted me; it seemed tailored to the needs of someone who would be using it to its full potential. I was constantly discovering new levels of potential that Audition offered and it has been the invaluable in allowing me to provide much needed audio restoration for vinyl rips of tunes that would otherwise become lost forever. With all that Audition v3 offered I could master even the worst, hiss-filled, click-ridden, muffled vinyl rips to recordings that would sound perfectly acceptable to be released on professional CDs.
I could not fault Audition v3, but I could, however, think of improvements, albeit very few. For years I eagerly awaited a new version and now it has arrived, I have to admit I am a quite disappointed.
The improvements that I had hoped would have been applied, have not. Instead, it seems to be a basic edition of version 3 except with a makeover. It does indeed work slightly faster, for example, instead of taking 6-7 seconds to load a track in version 3, it only seems to take 3-4 in version 4. Unfortunately this is about the only thing I can praise it for. The layout is unnecessarily complicated. I always valued audition for its extremely ergonomic layout, making it an extremely unconfusing application to work with. The new layout is clustered and unnecessary. I appreciate that I can alter the layout to what I would like, but it's unnecessary hassle to have to make it usable - I have never had to alter the layout of version 3 from its default. The available effects of the new version are the same as the old version, this alone was a little disheartening as I was anticipating numerous new abilities, but I can't really think of what else could be added, so I overlooked this. I can't, however, overlook that the processes are far more basic than what they were in version 3 and do not offer the ability to alter them to my exact needs, the declick effect being a prime example. Version 3's declick process had a vast array of settings allowing me to amend them to my exact requirements, the new version simply has 2 sliders, not even a "fix single click" option. I also feel that the help file is marginally more difficult to navigate than in the previous version.
I have to say that I agree with what was said in the previous thread, this new version simply appears to be a rehash of Soundbooth, which I have always perceived (as do many other people I have spoken to) to be a layman's version of Audition v3.
In conclusion, I regret to say that I'm sticking to v3. The new version only offers slightly faster processing, but at the cost of most of its functioning.
What's going on? Surely this is the reverse of how updates work?
