Audition help!

Ok, I guess the title of this post couldn't have been more generic.
Not sure what is wrong. I'm running Audition 3 on windows XP. I have an input running into the mic port which I've alwaysed used for recording things in real time into the program.
For whatever reason, the audio is not getting through since yesterday. Everything is the same, track is armed audio source I'm inputting is working. The only thing that has been messed with recently is my msconfig startup menu. Our computer guy added some memory to my computer, and when he did, he killed a few of the extra things that were set to run with startup. I've tried looking that over to see if he took something off that shouldn't have been. However, I thought that wouldn't affect it anyways since if he did end something associated with the software, it would just fire up upon starting Audition. I have lots of production work to do, and my brain is fried. I've tried changing the audio hardware from the default windows sound to my ASIO driver and back, neither was working. Please help?!

Does audio playback still work okay? If so, then try the following steps to narrow down the input problem:
1. Make sure Windows recognizes the Microphone input and it is still enabled as a valid input device. Right-click on the Volume/Speaker icon in your system tray and choose "Open Volume Control." Then select "Options > Properties" and choose "Recording." Make certain the "Microphone" inputs "Select" box is checked and that the volume slider is at an appropriate level.
2. Make sure Windows itself can record the microphone input. Click Start > Programs > Accessories > Entertainment > Sound Recorder. Try making some quick recordings and verify that Windows records and can playback your audio.
3. Open Audition in Edit View and click Edit > Audio Hardware Setup... Make sure the Audio Driver is set to "Audition Windows Sound" and that the Microphone option is enabled as the Default Input. Click OK and try recording in Edit View. Do you see any response on the level meters or any waveform recorded? If not, and it DID work in Sound Recorder, then we need to continue troubleshooting.

Sequence to Audition Help!

Premiere and Audition HELP needed!!
I'm either being a muppet or it's just not working as intended!
Trying to do a simple export of a 10 min sequence from Premiere to Audition so I can (obviously) do the audio mix. When I do that everything goes fine except, there are NO clips in my Audition timeline! I have blank multitrack mixer
Absolutely no idea what to do?!

Hi shooternz, thanks for the reply :-)
Well, the reason for is that the funciton is supposed to give handles! Give me the handles!
More specifically, I am going in to audition for one reason only - the time is takes for the Noise Reduction to kick in (since it has no pre read). But thats a whole other can of worms (and workaround debate).
Yes, all the other clips have handles :lament:

How to attach Audition Help pdf to f1

Is there a way to wire up Audition so that poking F1 (or some other action) will cause the Audition Help file PDF to open instead of taking me to the online help? (Recently, when I go there I am "forbidden" to search, even though I have a CC account, but that's another issue). I really just want to open a local help file.

Hello,
Some progress.
An old version of the Help Manager was installed - looks like two versions,
actually. I tried to uninstall it, but it doesn't show up in the Windows
list of installed software. That's probably because I upgraded to Win 7
professional a year ago (from Home Premium) and some apps did NOT get
migrated properly.
I tried installing the latest version in the default location, but the
installer reported that "a program with the same name is already installed"
and quit.
Then, I tried installing to a different location and that worked. I started
the manager and set the Local Content Only option. I also then tried to
download PDF's for other CC apps. All worked except the PDF for Audition,
which is the one I'm really most interested in. It is listed as
"unavailable" in the Manager. (I already have the PDF - is that why?).
Then I tried it. It worked perfectly for Photoshop, Illustrator, and
Premiere Pro. But it does NOT work in Audition. Audition reports that it
cannot display ONLINE help and that I should connect to the Internet
(already am connected.).
I will try re-installing Audition.
I have occasionally used "cleaning" tools from Adobe when I couldn't
uninstall some of the apps. Does such a tool exist to get rid of the Help
Manager?
Thanks for your help.

Audition "Help" not functional

While using Audition, -> Help (menu) and selecting any of the following does not do anything:
Adobe Audition Help... F1
Search...
Keyboard Shortcuts...
Glossary...
Nothing happens. No error messages, no nothing.
Yes, I've reinstalled once already with no "Help" functionality.
What am I missing ?
Please advise.
Thanks.

Hello HomerDawg.
This was a problem that affected a few Adobe products a while back (resolved January 2008). The answer, in my case, was to download and install an updated ahclient.dll:
"Help content does not open in Photoshop Elements 6, Premiere Elements 4, or Audition 3"
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/402/kb402707.html
Click the link in the page to download.
I'm not sure, but the fix might also be included in the 3.0.1 update patch:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=92&platform=Windows
It was a bit of a struggle to find this fix. It isn't on the updates page for Audition. I had to trawl through my correspondence at the time to find it.
I hope that this helps.

Adobe Audition Help | Working with markers

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/audition/using/markers.html

It sounds like instead of merging the markers you just turned each one into a range on its own.
Try this:
1. Add your single markers at all the relevant points in the file (include the very start and end of the file).
2. Open the Markers Panel and seelct all markers.
3. Choose to "Merge Selected Markers" (there is a button for this at the top of the Markers panel, or you can right click the selected markers).
This will merge all markers as you are expecting.
Now you can choose to export the audio within the marker rnages to individual files.
I hope that helps.

In the "Flexible Effects Routing and Side Chaining" discussion above: the "how to" example seems a bit too short. I would add that when creating a multisession, you can select the "Radio VO with Music Ducking" template to automatically perform steps 2 to 5.
Also, Jason Levine, "Principle Worldwide Evangelist", presents a nice overview of the automatic re-"ducktion" of background music by using a voice over side-chain into a dynamic processing effect in this video:

Adobe Audition Help | Saving and exporting files (CS6)

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/audition/using/saving-exporting-files1.html

stvns wrote:
Just to re-iterate the first three minutes of my audio has a marker called Marker 01, then the next 3 minute section is Marker 02, etc, so when I select all the markers, merge them, set the prefix and postfix to Track and 001 respectively, and click export, the audio that should accompany Marker 01, now as an exported wav file is Track_099 and Marker 99 is Track_001.
Hmm... just one marker to start with? At the start or the end of the time selection? The only way that I think your scenario could happen would be by there being no marker at the very start of the file, but in that case I don't see how you could include the first section (from zero time) anyway if you did that, so I'm a bit dubious... What would happen in this scenario would be that if you put in markers starting at 1 from the end of the first section, it would have to add a final marker for the start of the file, and this would be, let's say, marker 99. So the first file would start with marker 99 - but that would effectively be at the end of the batch ranges - if you see what I mean. But my real problem with this is that I don't see how you could include the first range in the audio at all without a marker at both ends of it. Now, what might have happened is that if you forget, and add the start marker after putting in all of the rest, then yes, you will get the above scenario - because markers are added sequentially and renumbering doesn't occur.
I've not had this problem - but there again I always start with a marker at zero before I convert to ranges. What should happen then is that it will take the marker label from the start of the range, and use that. The other thing you should consider is using the facility to rename the files - that should get around this completely as far as straightforward numbering is concerned.

Adobe audition help needed ASAP

Im am currently recording a audio book at 48000 24bit mono (as requested by individual) and i need to do three things and I'm not sure id=f the order is important and if I have extra steps not needed. Three things needed repair clipping, delete noise and normalize to -0.1
I have been running the restore lightly clipped and it seems to work fine but I notice it reduces the amplitude (no problem) I know I can normalize. I also need to extrac the noise with which I can use noise reduction, then I need to noramalize everything. Are these the proper steps or should I be doing it differently and if so how and why. I am doing this out of the country right now and internet is very slow and irregular so I patiently await any response anyone may have.
Thank you so much....

Adobe Audition Help | Connecting to audio hardware

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/audition/using/connecting-audio-hardware.html

A couple of things to check:
From the main menu select Edit > Preferences > Audio Hardware
Check the sample rate - usually 44.1k or 48k
Make sure you have selected an audio device - use the ASIO version of the driver if available
Next check the Audio Channel Mapping - make sure audio is being directed to the appropriate outputs
Then if in mulitrack view check the Output of the Master channel that it is going to the appropriate outputs
Then make sure you have armed the track to record and that the input source is pointing to whatever mic channel you have plugged in

Unfortunately that is correct in CS6. Hopefully it will be rectified in any future versions. Make sure that you request it in the Bugs and New Features request page.

Need Audition help / Advice - Audio Noise

I have this project I'm working on and I am new to editing audio in audition. I clearly have a lot of noise in this audio track, but I'm not sure what effects to use or how much to use. The main problem seems to be a constant hiss, but there are other problems. When I use the noise reduction effects it seems to create more problems.

Well, first off, the best advice is to cure the noise at its source before recording. There's almost always a curable cause for noise and hiss and it's much better never to have to use noise reduction.
However, on the assumption that you have a bunch of material you can't redo, there are ways to improve the performance of Audition's noise reduction (which is one of the better ones out there before you spend thousands on specialist stuff).
First, I tend to use "Noise Reduction" rather than Hiss Reduction even if I perceive the problem as hiss.
Second, find a bit of the track you're working on which is just the hiss without any other sound mixed in. You can generally do this by zooming into an area at the beginning or end (or even between words). Hit the Capture Noise Print button.
Then, Select All to work on the whole track.
However, don't try to get rid of all the noise at once or you'll get all sorts of nasty artefacts. Instead, turn down the Noise Reduction slider to a relatively low number, definitely below 50% and preferably in the 30% range. Turn down the "Reduce by" slider as well to maybe something like 10 or 15dB.. Then apply the reduction.
At this point, repeat all of the above. Capture a new noise print then adjust and perform the NR. Basically, you'll get much better results doing the noise reduction in a number (say 3 or 4) small chunks. Make sure you keep the original though (use Save As on the noise reduced copies) in case you go too far or get something wrong.
If you're still not happy with results, try again, raising the FFT size (on the Advanced menu) and varying it between takes.

Viewing video thumbnails in Audition CS 5.5

I would like to be able to view MPEG-4 file thubnails (and edit the audio protion of these files) in Audition CS 5.5's video preview window, but I only have Quicktime 6.3 installed on my computer. Here's the message I get when Audition boots:
The Audition help file states that
"The Waveform Editor lets you open the audio portion of video files in the formats below. The Multitrack Editor lets you insert the same file types and provides a preview in the Video panel.
To access these video formats, QuickTime must be installed."
If I were at home, I'd simply start downloading newer Quicktime versions. However, I'm installing software on a workstation at a large company, and need to get IT approval for any software that is not already approved (and strangely enough, newer Quicktime software/plugins are not yet approved). Can anyone advise the exact Quicktime version I need to submit for approval (I'm running 32 bit WIndows 7.)
Thank-you in advance for your help.

Sorry we didn't pick this up before. Previous post is, of course, complete garbage but I can answer your question now, having investigated it.
Essentially this is a bug in Audition CS5.5 - it really should 'copy to new' in the same format as the original. Bad news is that it won't be fixed in CS5.5. Good news though is that it's fixed in CS6 - if you copy a selection to a new file, it's in exactly the same format as the original.

Audition - Multitrack - beats per minute ändern

Ich habe aus verschiedenen Liedern mir ein neues zusammengestellt. Dieses möchte ich nun schneller bzw langsamer laufen lassen. Ich kenne es so, dass man irgendwo die Einstellung beats per minute hat und dort kann man dann eine bestimmte Geschwindigkeit angeben. Das Lied wird dann auf die neue Geschwindigkeit umgerechnet und ist dann kürzer bzw. länger. Wo finde ich denn so eine Einstellmöglichkeit im Audition? In den Eigenschaften des Multitrack gibt es zwar die Angabe beats per minute, man kann es auch ändern, aber ich kann keine Veränderung meines Liedes feststellen. Was mache ich verkehrt?
Vielen Dank schon mal im voraus
Susanne
