"Save all audio as" available in Audition CS5.5?

Is the multi-track "Save all audio as" option in Audition 3.0 somewhere available in Audition CS5.5? -ed

This has been moaned about before, and I'm afraid it isn't in this version. Pretty sure it will be back, though...

    Anyone know how to open / save .mp2 files in Audition CS5.5? [Not .mp3]

    a) costly for Adobe to implement
    To make the CS5.5 deadline, and with the cross-platform rewrite, we simply weren't able to get to some things on our list (not that we ditched the features or anything).   However, MPEG 1 Layer II, and MPEG 2 Layer II have their own royalty issues that we have to pay for.

    Not the case at all, we know many of our loyal radio customers need this functionality on a daily basis.   I do, however, have to admit that we saw this as less prevelant than .mp3 (when looking at our total customer base).

    I keep meaning to make a list of things that use mp2 like radio playout systems, the Nagra field recorder, DAB files and so on so as to make more of a case. Any examples of mp2 need should be flagged up to Adobe.
    Best thing to do would be to amass a set of test files such that if/when we support this, it can be more thoroughly tested in-house before we put it out the door.   I have a good set from various places, but we always get our best and trickiest test files from customers.

  • Adobe Audition CS5.5 is now Available for Purchase

    If you're simply alerting us that there was something in a previous version that isn't in this version, please see this:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/895/cpsid_89588.html
    Also, feel free to search in the forum as we may have already addressed the question for another user.

    I, like the vast majority of consumers, am not a regular forum user. Anything Durin wrote would have been outside my scope of vision. I'm quite certain that the forum community is contributed to and read by only a VERY small portion of Audition users. I personally only came to these forums after I bought and returned CS5.5 in hopes that I could get across to the Adobe team the reason why I felt the need to get my money back. I've been using Audition (and CEP) for over a decade, and this is the first time there's been a release called an upgrade even though it has far less features than the previous version. Due diligence is great. That's why I read EVERYTHING on the product page, which calls this release an upgrade (despite it having less features than a downgrade to 1.5) and fails to mention the huge decrease in features. You'd think that'd be pertinent information to put up front and center on the product page.
    I actually found that feature comparison chart after I had returned the purchase. I couldn't find it through on links on the actual product page though. It took a Google search. A feature comparison chart is standard on the product pages of most software. but Adobe had good reason to not make it readily available. In fact, there's not even a link to it in the ONE AND ONLY faq that mentions a feature reduction here: http://www.adobe.com/products/audition/faq.html. Faq stands for frequently asked questions. A quick look in the forum shows that there are certain other questions that are far more frequently asked than the ones that are currently posted in that faq.
    Likewise, the FEATURES page mentions nothing of the missing features. http://www.adobe.com/products/audition/features.html
    I value authentic and transparent companies. I should be able to expect an upgrade to be an upgrade and for any reputable company to inform me on the product page if otherwise. I practiced the amount of diligence appropriately due for such a purchase. Avoiding this would not have required due diligence, but excessive diligence, especially back in mid April, when I first pre-ordered the product.
    My suggestions:
    Make it clear on the product page that this version is missing  A LOT of the features that are in prior versions and that have been a staple of the product line. This version may be quite good as a product of it's own, but not when it's billed as an upgrade to a product that had far more features. Explain more clearly that it's a rebuild and that it lacks many features.
    Make the "feature comparison chart" a tab on the product page. It's more important than the current features tab, and more revealing than the reviews and faq tabs combined. Marketing teams should help people find what they want, not mislead them - through withheld information - into buying something they don't want. If the product is good, there's no reason to hide anything. A comprehensive reading of the product page will show anyone who's experienced this version that much of the relevant info about it is hidden.
    Update the faq to address the questions that are actually most frequently asked, and not just questions that you want people to ask so you can give the happiest sugar coated answer you have up your sleeve. These questions should include:
    What features are missing?
    When will the features be re-implemented? Update, or future version? CS6? When's that expected?
    How do I open Audition 3.0 sessions in CS5.5 (while preserving settings)?
    What members of the Audition clientele is this best suited for, and which users would be better off waiting for the next upgrade?
    Durin has definitely been great in clearing things up for us. Of course, that took people asking! I think if Durin was in charge of marketing there'd be happier customers (and probably less money wasted on the poor customer service system). It's not that difficult to just tell about the product as it is, warts and all. If the product has value, then there's no reason to hide the facts about it deep in the site. Just tell your costumers, in bold writing on the front of the product page, who amongst them the product is actually best suited for - and don't try to mislead the rest!!

  • Audition CS5.5 not working on 2014 MacBook Air

    Greetings!
    Just upgraded computers (from a 2008 MacBook) to a 2014 MacBook Air (13", Early 2014).  I had Audition CS5.5 on my old Mac so I deactivated it, installed it on the new Air and activated it.  Everything seemed to install smoothly, but when I open the program and open an audio file, it just doesn't work, plain and simple.  I hit play and nothing happens. I try with the spacebar and nothing happens.  The play button lights up, but nothing plays.  I can add effects to tracks and see that changes are being made in the waveforms, but can't listen back.  Even after making changes, I cannot save those changes.
    The specifics:
    13" MacBook Air (Early 2014)
    1.4 GHz Intel Core i5
    4GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Running OSX Yosemite (10.10.3, same as my old MacBook with no issues)
    As for Audition, it's CS5.5.  There don't appear to be any updates available.  I know that I can upgrade to CS6 and I have no problem paying the upgrade charge, but will only do so if I know for a fact that the issue will be resolved.  And honestly, unless there are earth-shattering updates, I'm perfectly happy with 5.5.
    So there it is.  Anyone have any ideas what the issue could be?  I've done some searching, but can't seem to find anyone with the exact issue I'm having.  Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!

    Thanks ryclark! 
    I checked the audio settings and all appeared to be right. Just to be safe, I re-selected the correct options.  The right drivers were also installed, but again, I re-selected it just to be sure.  And viola!  It worked!
    Very strange.  So essentially I changed nothing, but not it works.  Can't thank you enough for the speedy response!

  • Audition CS5.5

    Is there a list of audio file formats supported by CS5.5 for saving files, or a user manual available on this site?  Specifically, we have Audition 3 and need to save audio files to the MP2 format. I would like to know if updating to CS5.5 will enable saving files as MP2. This is a radio broadcasting situation where a satellite distribution format requires MP2. Thanks.

    Hi Greg,
    Native MP2 support is not currently implemented in Audition CS 5.5, and has not typically been supported out of the box due to very high licensing costs for a codec used by a small subset of Audition users.  We are re-examining this support for the future and trying to determine the best way to offer this codec to users who need it without impacting others. 
    If Audition is purchased as part of the Production Premium suite, MP2 support CAN be achieved using the included Adobe Media Encoder and automated Watch Folders, which can convert any file saved or copied there to MP2.  I know from my visits to a local NPR affiliate that they include a drag-and-drop MP2 conversion tool on everyone's desktops, though obviously neither of these solutions is as simple as native support.
    I'll add your notes to our internal feature database entry for MP2 support.
    Thanks,
    Durin

  • Audition CS5.5 constantly crashing during editing

    I am running Adobe Audition version 4.0 Build 1815 on 64-bit Windows 7 Professional edition.  Audtion used to run great for the last 12 months or so, but recently - during last 4 weeks or so - it crashes unexpectedly during an edit session.  While saving I also frequently see a warning that this file is being used by some other application (hence can't be saved).  I have turned off all backup software (Mozy, Dropbox etc.) wondering if they are somehow conflicting with Audtion.
    Here's is a typical event log entry when it crashes:
    Faulting application name: Adobe Audition.exe, version: 4.0.0.1815, time stamp: 0x4d8ba538

    Is this a known issue and is there a fix available?
    regards,
    Sudhanshu Thakur
    Durham, NC

    Hi Sudhanshu,
    Unfortunately, that error doesn't tell us too much about why the crash occurs.  Are you typically working in Waveform view, or Multitrack View?  If you get the error that the file is currently in use, does it work if you uncheck the box labeled "Include markers and other metadata" in the Save As dialog?
    Let's try forcing Audition to rebuild its preference files as a first step and see if this makes a difference.
    1. Open Explorer and navigate to C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Audition  (Note - you will probably need to type the "AppData" folder name manually into the address bar as it's hidden by Windows by default.)
    2. Click on the "4.0" folder located there and rename it to "4.0_BACKUP"
    3. Launch Audition
    It will rebuild all of its preferences, so for now, any presets you had will not be available.  If we determine this change fixes the issue, you can move some of the files/folders from "4.0_BACKUP" into the new "4.0" folder to restore these.  Notably: "EffectPresets.xml", and "Favorites.xml" 

  • How To Extend Adobe Audition CS5.5

    I've received a number of questions on how to extend Adobe Audition with questions similar to:
    How do I import file format X?
    How do I import a project from application Y?
    Will there be an SDK available?
    How do I add plug-ins to Audition?
    I had made a post similar to this in the public beta of Audition for Mac, but I can no longer find the thread. So I'll reiterate some stuff here:
    Area
    Info
    Adding VST Plug-Ins
    Most of you have found this already, but the best place to start is in the Audio Plug-In Manager
    If you want to "write" new plug-ins for Audition, writing a VST plug-in will be the best option as it will allow you to write something that will work on Windows as well as OSX.  Info on writing a VST plug-in may be found here (http://www.steinberg.net/en/company/developer.html)
    Adding Audio Unit Plug-Ins (Mac OSX)
    Same as Above.   Note that OSX ships with some built-in AU plug-ins that Audition can utilize for free if you just scan at least once.   We don't scan on startup because there's several plug-ins out there in the world that don't behave well.  Info on Audio Unit plug-in development can be found here (http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/MusicAudio/Conceptual/AudioUnitProgr ammingGuide/TheAudioUnit/TheAudioUnit.html)
    Adding more import formats via libsndfile
    libsndfile is an open-source C library for reading and writing audio files (http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile/)   Ambitious people could download the source, write support for another format, and create their own custom-rolled library of libsndfile.  You would then replace the version of libsndfile with which Audition CS5.5 ships, with the one you rolled.   Due to the way we use libsndfile, any format you add would show up in Audition.   This is also true if there's an official update to libsndfile that comes out in the future, you could just plop it in and it should work. 
    If you're interested in exporting or writing formats that libnsdfile supports, please tell us which formats are the most important to you and in what way you use them in your workflow.
    Adding more import formats via QuickTime components
    QuickTime has the ability to be extended via QuickTime Components.   There's several examples out there, but here are some websites to check out:
    QuickTime Components (http://www.apple.com/quicktime/resources/components.html)
    Learn about even more QuickTime capabilities (http://www.apple.com/quicktime/extending/components.html)
    Flip4Mac for Windows Media support on OSX (http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac-wmv/overview.htm)
    Perian -- the swiss-army knife for QuickTime (http://perian.org/)
    Calibrated Software (http://www.calibratedsoftware.com/products.asp)
    In most cases, just adding the various QuickTime components will automatically add the import functionality to Audition.
    Importing project formats from other applications
    As seen on other threads in this forum, Ses2sesx (http://www.aatranslator.com.au/ses2sesx.html) and AATranslator (http://www.aatranslator.com.au/) seem to add quite a bit of support.
    SDK
    At this time, we haven't released an SDK for Audition.   If you're interested in one, however, please tell us what you would want from an SDK for Audition and we'll take it into consideration.

    Charles,
    could you please also advise what PC users can do to make common avi files useable in AA CS5.5? The obvious problem is, no matter how many exotic video formats a PC can play by way of video-for-windows codecs, these are useless for Quicktime, because Quicktime on the PC needs codecs specifically written for "Quicktime for Windows", which are, as I've come to find, EXTREMELY rare. So far I've only found ONE, sold by 3ivx, but this costs as much as the AA CS5.5 update itself. Without them, Quicktime on the PC will only handle mov files, which are not too popular on the PC. Is there any other way out of this?

  • Is there a way to save multiple audio hardware settings?

    Hi Everyone,
                           I use a multiple preamp set up to record. I would like to be able to playback and do my editing without having to have my preamps all plugged in and just use the computer's built in hardware.  Of course as soon as I disconnect them Audition tells me I need to go back and set up my audio hardware settings since they have now changed.
    Is there any way I can save the audio hardware settings so that I can switch back and forth between the computer's audio hardware and my preamp set up without having to go back and manually enter all the settings each time?

    One feature request I've been meaning to submit has been remembering the previous settings for a device and defaulting to them when the device is re-selected.  Thanks for the reminder on that.
    As for CS6, you might be able to take advantage of the Machine-Specific Preferences feature to make this a bit easier.  Here's what I would recommend:
    Configure Audition with your primary audio device, get the Channel Assignments and all other settings how you like them, then close Audition.
    Next, you're going to copy one of the Audition preference files to another location on your system.  Your existing preference files will be located in one of the following locations:
           Mac OS X: /Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/Adobe/Audition/5.0/
           Windows XP: /Documents and Settings/<username>/Application Data/Adobe/Audition/5.0/
           Windows 7:  /Users/<username>/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Audition/5.0/
        (Note that the "Library," "Application Data," and "AppData" folders may be hidden by the OS by default.)
    Copy the file MachineSpecificSettings.xml to the appropriate directory below:
         Mac OS X: /Library/Preferences/Adobe/Audition/5.0/
           Windows 7/XP (32-bit): /Program Files/Common Files/Adobe/Audition/5.0/
           Windows 7/XP (64-bit):  /Program Files (x86)/Common Files/Adobe/Audition/5.0/
    Launch Audition and make sure Preferences > Audio Hardware > Use Machine-specific device defaults is selected.  Now, each time you launch Audition it should attempt to load your primary device and configuration.  If it can't be found, you'll still be notified and able to select your built-in input/output, but the next time you launch with the primary device connected, it should load as if it never left.
    There's a bit more information on Machine Specific Settings on our Inside Sound blog post.  It wasn't intended for this use, but I think it will make this particular request a bit simpler.  Meanwhile, I'll make sure we have a feature in the database to look into this.

  • Adobe Audition CS5.5 with Premiere Pro CS5

    Hello everybody.
    I am considering downgrading from Master Collection CS5 to Adobe Production Premium CS5.5
    But quite frankly it's just because of one application.
    Though, i am in doubt if i'll actually going to make the downgrade.
    And as you could and might have guessed it is the Adobe Audition CS5.5 Application.
    Though really the whole pack has a GREAT improvement overall, I just actaully want to mix SEAMLESSLY with Premiere Pro and sound editing application (Audition).
    Which leads me to my next question.
    Now with Adobe Soundbooth CS5 closed off (by April 24th), and an UPGRADE for Soundbooth CS5 users to Audition CS5. Does this mean that Audition CS5.5 works SEAMLESSLY with Premiere Pro CS5?
    Is there a dynamic link between the two applications? (Audition CS5.5 and Premiere Pro CS5)
    AM i able to send mixes between the two? I really don't want to loose any Audio data, such as 5.1 channel mapping, volume mixing, denoising, general mixing etc.
    All i really need is some good quality sound editing which works seamless, as After Effects and Premiere Pro has proved to me can be done.
    Just want to know if it is possible. Or if I REALLY have to upgrade in order to get the sweet apples.
    Best
    Lucas

    Hi _durin_
    Thanks for your quick response.
    But I didn't quite understand your answer.
    I have seen Jason Levine's video earlier, as CS5.5 was announced and it looks natively good. I understand the mixdown attributes etc.
    Please correct me if im wrong HOWEVER this workflow and settings applies still to ONLY the new CS5.5 Version?
    Im currently using Master Collection CS5.
    Instead of getting either the Production Premium, or Master Collection I am strongly considering updating Soundbooth CS5 to Audition CS5.5 (the option is there as i can tell by SoundBooth's website, though i get a weird error message when I click the update link...)
    However I need to know, IF Audition CS5.5 works well with the PREVIOUS version (that'll be CS5 not 5.5), of Premiere Pro.
    Are there an option to render the reference video, and generate a interchange session from WITHIN Premiere Pro CS5 to Audition CS5.5?
    Im sorry if I either sound harsh or "willingly" misunderstanding. But I have only documentation on how the integration works between the current versions (meaning 5.5).
    Im as you can guess VERY confused over the move from Adobe to make a .5 version instead of a full-fledged CS6 solution. It causes a stir, cause I then don't know much of the integration between the previous applications.
    I have seen as an example that Photoshop CS5 have gotten the update to receive paintings/files made with their new touch API. So I wonder whether integrational features will be a part of the CS5 pack since, as i've mentioned, an application like Soundbooth gets replaced with Audition, with an upgrade option for the Soundbooth owners.
    Im confused and hope you can help me clear my mind up, whether to upgrade or not. I will download the trial eventually, but not onto my current CS5 system since I already use this in my daily video work and want to AVOID confusion.
    Best

  • Can the Noise Gate be adjusted in Audition CS5

    Hi All,
    Can the noise gate be adjusted in Audition CS5
    Regards
    Matt

    Ryclark is right that trial and error is needed.
    However, to answer your specific question, for most noise gate applications, you really just want the fastest attack you can get (which will be the default of 1ms), otherwise you risk clipping the start of whatever sound is "opening" the gate.
    Similarly, unless you want to add some compression as well, just leave the output gain at the default setting of zero.
    The main thing in a gate is threshold--which is very dependent on your material.  Basically, you want to set this so the wanted audio makes it through the gate but everything else is muted.  You can get a rough idea of where you want this set by looking at your waveform...but after that you'll be best off tweaking it by ear.
    Hope this helps.

  • Audition CS5.5 and Macbook pro performance

    Hey guys, this is my first post on this forum. I’ll give you a little history as to how I got here.
    Started off on CE2.0 then moved onto Audition 1.5 and now I’m on Audition 3.0
    I know Audition like the back of my hand, It suits my workflow perfectly(well almost perfectly).
    I found that I was reaching some limitations with Audition 3. A normal session for me would consist of 1 Midi track for the EZDrummer VSTi and then up to around 30 audio tracks. My genre is rock/indie/acoustic. Each track will generally have compression and reverb. My vocal track consists of Reverb, 2 compression effects(to compress and de-ess) and sometimes Antares Autotune.
    What I found was that I could tell the system was starting to giveway, I was getting pops and clicks during playback, and I would have to start freezing tracks. I found that Antares Autotune was pushing my system, along with the Guitar Suite.
    My main problems I found was comping tracks. I would need to create a new track for each vocal take, which ends up pushing the system even more.
    I decided I needed to make a change. So I started looking for alternate DAW’s which had a “take” system. I was deciding between Logic or Protools. I’ve been running a PC setup since forever, so Logic would mean I would have to buy a Mac. I choose Logic 9 as I have witnessed my friend comp vocals on it, and it looked very user friendly, So I bought myself a Macbook Pro 15” with the i7 CPU.
    So I’ve been using this setup for the last 2 months or so, and to be perfectly honest I miss Adobe Audition. Dont get me wrong, Logic is great, but it feels more like a toy compared to Audition. I feel more at home with Audition. More specifically the workflow, and the Studio Reverb plugin is the best reverb plugin I have EVER used. Not to mention the dynamics processor has great de-esser presets.
    ANYWAY.
    Its question time.
    In Audition and more specifically Audition 5.5 Is there a built in “take” system which I’m not aware about? Or do we all just create a new track for each vocal take and comp that way? I don’t mind this way of Comping vocals, the problem lies when the system starts to pop and click due to having too many tracks. This brings me to my next question.
    How is the performance of the Mac version of Audition 5.5 on a 15” i7 Macbook Pro with 4gig of ram? Unfortunately my trial period has run out, and I didn’t get much of a chance to push the system(I couldn’t open my .ses files).
    Is there a way to convert .ses to .sesx? I tried converting to .xml and it didn’t carry over the plugins.
    Can I extend my trial period of Audition 5.5 in anyway?
    I really want to give Audition another shot if I can convert to .sesx with ease and have great performance with my Macbook pro.

    Okay, I've spent some time this morning looking at Guitar Rig 5 in CS5.5 and CS6.  Guitar Rig can install a lot of flavors of audio plug-in depending on your need.  Audition only cares about the VST and Audio Unit (on Mac.)
    There was an issue we found in Audition CS5.5 where some effects don't properly report their channelization.  While not technically an Audition bug (it's part of the VST spec, I believe) we were not trapping these wayward plug-ins, which is why you saw Guitar Rig listed, but disabled.  We addressed this issue in Audition CS6 by catching plug-ins that do not respond to channel requests as expected and assigning them as appropriate.
    Guitar Rig is now enabled in Audition CS6 VST Effects List
    More importantly, Audition CS6 opens up some pretty impressive effect channelization options which allow you to route the channels of a file into an effect in any manner you like.  This allows you full control over which channel is assigned to which effect input, and which channel the output should be applied.
    Feeding a 5.1 file into a Mono effect now enables precise control over channel routing.
    Full control over 5.1 files into 5.1 effects as well.  Any combination of channelizations and effects should work well.
    Lastly, here's Guitar Rig 5 running in Audition CS6.  While it definitely works, I do not recommend modifying this particular guitar track.  Much like trying to pitch correct Freddie Mercury, Keith Richards guitar work does not benefit from additional processing

  • FCP XML Effects in Audition CS5.5

    Through a very long series of circumstances, I have an XML file and multiple OMF files of a film's audio. The editor is based out of LA and I am on the east coast and communication has been...difficult at the best. Essentially I am very ready for this process to be over.
    So the XML files opens like a charm, everything in place and whatnot. However my problem is that Audition loses 15/18 audio effects and does not tell me which tracks the effects were lost from, where they were, etc. Is there any way to fix this without going into Final Cut with the XML file and individually seeking out and reapplying each individual effect in Audition? I tried searching and reading the FAQ's but I could not find anything.
    I have Final Cut Pro 7 and Adobe Audition CS5.5 available to me, both running on Snow Leopard. Thanks!

    Sorry but the short answer is no - I'm not aware of any conversion application (other than a daw specific one like Ses2Sesx) which will not only read another daw's session details but also it's fx details.

  • Slow Playback Adobe Audition CS5.5 - not sample rate setting error!

    I'm currently using Windows 7 and Adobe Audition CS5.5 build 1815. Soundcard is RME Digi96 Pad. Ok its an old card and the drivers date from 2005. In Adobe 3.1 and CS5.5  I get slow, around half speed, playback at 44k and 96k sample rates. YES the project sample rates and sound card sample rates are set correctly, clock is set to master on the soundcard.
    However, in using Cockos Reaper 3 or 4 on exactly the same computer, same soundcard, same OS, I can play 44k and 96k wav files perfectly.
    This suggests to me there is an error in the way Adobe Audition 3 / CS5.5 is handling the ASIO drivers in Windows 7 with some soundcards.
    If it was a driver problem, or indeed a soundcard hardware issue, then Reaper would not perform properly.
    So what's going on with the ASIO drivers in Adobe Audition with Windows 7?

    I have two XLR wireless mics, which are great for my video work, but I need to do audio recordings for podcasts and wanted a mic that would be able to do just audio podcasts, as well as video podcasts, live via my laptop. So while I do agree that the audio recording from my XLR mics is great, I am not happy with the audio quality of standard computer mics I've tried and the only way I can get my XLR mics into the computer directly is through a USB connector (which I also have, I'm getting the Yeti set-up for my business partner to use).
    Maybe Audition just isn't the best software option for this, but since we have CS6 Premium I had hoped I could utilize software I already had. (And for the live video casts I'm looking at starting out with Google hangouts...)
    With that being said, I appreciate your reply and thought I had already set-up the hardware correctly in Windows & Audition. Here is a screenshot that shows the settings I have - my question at this point is whether the master clock needs to be changed (the audio channel mapping tab shows the left and right speaker of the default Realtek speaker):
    I just double checked the properties of both the speakers and mic and they are both set to 48,000/16/stereo, as is the audio file in Audition.
    I'm a journalist, not an audio pro, and I fully accept that the sound device must not be properly connected. The problem is that I cannot figure out why that is the case.
    Since I need to use the USB mic and I want to be able to use the power of Audition to put together podcasts, using other software for the livecasts, I would really like to sort through this. Any and all help is greatly appreciated!

  • Audition CS5.5 not recognizing my microphone

    I am using a Mackie 402-VLZ3 and Audition CS5.5 on my Acer Aspire 5736Z.  When ever I try to record my laptop microphone picks it up instead of my condenser mic.  I've went to control panel,  manage audio devises, but only the laptop mic shows up. HELP!

    Well, if you want the truth about Behringer... yes their stuff is cheap and cheerful. How do they do this? Usually by compromising on the 'expensive' bits - no, not the electronics but the hardware. Generally it's pots (controls) switches and connectors that suffer most - but this device has only connectors, and as long as you don't pull them in and out too much, and take care when you do, it will be fine.
    But the digital noise thing is different, and it all goes back to the laptop power supply. This problem has everything to do with grounding and earth coupling issues, and generally never occurs with the laptop running on batteries. Also, you can't guarantee that it's going to happen - some people never have trouble with this at all. People invariably blame the last thing they plug in - and if it's a sound device of some sort, then obviously it's that, right? Er, no... it's a system problem, almost invariably related to induced ground noise. It's the fact that the sound device has joined the laptop and something else that's grounded (your mixer, perhaps, in this case) that's causing it. It can be complicated to sort out, and the only way to do it effectively is to put isolation transformers between the output of the mixer and the sound device - this invariably cures it, because it isolates the two things that aren't getting on.
    So yes, if that happens you have to purchase a couple of isolating transformers, but these are generally pretty cheap. Also you should note that this can happen with expensive sound devices as well...

  • Audition CS5.5 (OSX) + RME HDSPe MADI Soundcard Problem

    There is a big problem here with Audition CS5.5 and the RME HDSPe MADI soundcard.
    Stereo playback is no problem but surround playback is. This is a 64in/64out soundcard and Audition
    seems to have problems with the amount of outputs. With surround playback and the output channels
    set to 1/2/3/4/5/6 for 5.1 playback, the output starts at channel 57! Then one channel is left out - the next
    playback channel is 59 and so on. Please make Audition CS5.5 aware of more I/O channels.
    When I switch to the additional RME HDSPe PCIe card which only has 26 I/O Audition works normal and addresses
    all I/Os correctly as far as I could check.
    I even have the two soundcards aggregated to a 90in/90out CoreAudio device. It would be great to have the possibility
    to use this aggregated device too. RME allows on driver level to combine different/multiple soundcards for ASIO and CroeAudio.
    It would be great if Audition can support all audio interface combinations.
    The RME soundcards work absolutely flawless on the same machine with Nuendo 5, PT HD9 and Logic 9 so I can exlude
    any driver or setup problem.
    Manyn thanks in advance for any effort to solve this.

    I have to say that I'm a bit surprised no official seems to take this serious enough to answer to this problem.
    Audition CS5.5 is surprisingly good and mainly layed out very ergonomically. Therefore I think a lot more
    professionals will be interested in this software. But things like problems with sound card environments with I/O cpability
    above, let's say, 32 channels is a major show stopper.
    I'm very confident that the problems lies in Auditions channel handling with CoreAudio, because any other (professional) software
    runs perfectly with 128 or 180 channels I/O combined.
    I read in another post that no patches are planned until CS6. This would be a real drag ... to use Audition with surround files and
    higher channel count I have to do work arounds that aren't funny at all.
