Trouble creating a favorite in Adobe Audition 6.5

I'm trying to create a favorite in Adobe Audition 6.5 but I keep getting an error message that a favorite is already in the process of being created and that I need to stop recording the current one and start again. So I got to "Favorites" and then "stop recording", I get the message, "A new favorite could not be recorded because no supported actions were recorded". So I click ok and go back again and click on "Start recording favorite" but I get the same error message. Nothing I do can stop this error cycle. I've tried closing out of everything and going back in, but the error remains. Any ideas?

What exactly are you trying to put in your favourite? Not all things are possible...

How do I create vocal harmonies with Adobe Audition CS6?

Anyone know of an "easy" way to create vocal harmonies using Audition CS6? (That doesn't involve individually recording each part. I'm looking specifically for a method that involves simply recording the lead and then using the software to change the note by either a third or a fifth or change the timing to acheive harmony in a layered multitrack.)
Thanks

If I recall correctly there is a section in the Beatles song Please Please Me for example where the harmony (apart from one note change) is all the same note so as SteveG says there is much more to harmonies than just pitch shifting a lead vocal
In this studio we have just finished about 45 hours of manually pitch correcting lead and harmony vocals (using Audition's excellent manual pitch correction function) for 8 songs and there are parts in there where the engineer had replaced the incorrectly sung harmony with AutoTune generated harmonies - absolutely horrible!
So we removed them and just pitch corrected the original lines - the results were spectacular.
BTW Some of these songs has more than 20 vocal tracks!
However you need to have an understanding of harmony to do this
If this is no help then Waves have a plugin called UltraPitch which may help but the results are just never the same

Trouble installing Adobe Audition 2.0

I am trying to install Adobe Audition 2.0 on a computer it was once installed on. I am receiving an error message saying Activation unsuccessful because Activation server is not available at this time.
It gives me a phone number to call.
A recording tells me support is no longer available by telephone and to go to website with question.
I am here, seeking advice as to how to install this program.

You are encountering an issue that applies to most of the CS2 and earlier versions of Adobe products. If you don't mind moving up one version you should be able to acquire and install Audition 3 in place of the version you have. I believe your version qualifies you for this - someone else had the same problem this past week and they were successful getting version 3 as a replacement. Just follow the instructions on the following page:

Hello! I have just bought Adobe Audition CS6 and I'm having trouble installing it.

Whenever I install it I keep getting the message that it "Failed to install Microsoft Visual C 2008 Redistributable Package (x86)" So I went to the Microsoft website and downloaded the package. That would not work either. How do I get both to work? It cost a lot of money to get this software and I would really like to use it properly. Thank you for reading.
This is the note I get whenever I try to install the program:

Without knowing anything about your system we can't even begin to advise. These libraries are used by gigazillions of programs and even device drivers, so the most plausible explanation is that one of those other tools has installed an incompatible version or has flagged them as critical so they cannot be arbitrarily removed by other installers. Either way, this is nothing that can be solved easily. Also not that you have a "display requirements not met" error there, which may point to a configuration issue with your graphics hardware and potentially cause the collateral issue with the MSVC libraries.

Adobe Audition CS6 (5.0.1) update patch released

UPDATE: A new 5.0.1 update build has been made available as of July 20, 2012, due to an issue discovered in the Dynamics Processing effect. If you previously updated Adobe Audition CS6, please visit the links below and install the new update. This update is not available via Adobe Update Manager and must be downloaded via the website.
Today we released an update to address several bugs in Audition CS6. Many were minor workflow issues, but a few could cause Audition to crash under certain circumstances.
Download the patch installer directly from:
Windows: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5419
Mac: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5418
bugs fixed in Adobe Audition CS6 5.0.1 update:
APE files with metadata inserted by other editors cause Audition to crash (Windows)
If previous session directory no longer exists, Audition leaves the Folder Location field empty
Multitrack fades no longer respect the fade type preference. (Worked in CS5.5)
Audition may crash when users choose to create unique copies of selected MT regions
Playback stutters when creating a unique copy of a clip while right-click dragging
Channel Mix settings not honored on export when not exposed in dialog
EUCON Soft Key set contains keys that do nothing
Session Tempo broken on systems using commas instead of decimal points
Bounce to New Track > Selected Track bounces AFTER passing through track output
If a favorite was recorded on subset of channels, the favorite will fail if those channels are disabled
Sending a stereo bus side-chained to a mono track may crash the application
UAD-2 plug-ins missing from Windows Effects menu
Audition may crash on launch when CoolType encounters certain installed fonts (Mac)

I'm really happy to see this update out, but I haven't been able to install it on my Mac yet.
The Updates item in the help menu is greyed out for me. When I try running the installer from the direct download it says 'Updates have been suppressed by your administrator.'
I can't imagine that I would have disabled updates.
Any advice?

Problem with Adobe Audition 2.0 and recording from a 1212m.

I bought a brand new machine and have be configuring it all week. Everything has been going well, except getting Adobe Audition 2.0 (the new version) to “hear” sound from the 1212m.
The intel 975 motherboard has an integrated HD sound system already on board and I have been able to get adobe audition to recognize it and record from it. This is what I have Windows XP Pro set to as my default sound card.
I installed the 1212m and I have gotten my monitors to work by using the XLR jacks on the monitors to the ¼ inch jacks on the 1212m using a VST (NI’s Kontakt 2) as the audio source. So it works.
What I can’t seem to get to work is getting Adobe Audition to “hear” the sound coming from the 1212m.
Patchmix seems to be working ok. The audio bars jump each time I hit a note on the keyboard.
I have configured Audition by going to Audio Hardware Setup and setting it to EMU ASIO and tried every combination of INPUT and OUTPUT, but when I hit the Record button in Audition it just flat lines..
I was hoping that once the audio made it from the VST though the 1212m and out to the speakers, that getting Audition to record it would be easy, but that hasn’t been the case.
The Intel 955 Extreme Edition and the 975 motherboard are brand new and I’m worried that being on the bleeding edge of technology, that one of the drivers isn’t working correctly and causing me hours of debugging a problem that is unworkable from my end.
Hopefully the problem is just some small stupid thing that I’m doing or failing to do (like normal).
Any ideas would be helpful.
thanks

I'm just saving it into a file in "My documents" on the internal hard drive. It's a computer in the office which has been used my other people before me and I have my own file which I was always able to save Adobe sound files into before, so I don't think it's anything to do with me not being allowed or read-only.
I've also been trying to save it onto USB hard drives. This works when I save it under a different name, but not when I'm just trying to update a file i've been working on. Basically I have to create a new file everytime I add something, so like "myaudit1", "myaudit2", "myaudit3" etc etc, even though it's the same piece of work just updated.
Hope that makes sense!

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?

Help For A Novice User Of Adobe Audition v.3

We purchased Adobe Audition vs. 3 to record programs to put on the radio. The trouble is I am a novice with this program.
Where do I go to learn how to use this program? The only thing I need for now is to know how to :
(1)Record a voice track
(2)Insert a track off a CD for an open to the program.
(3)Insert a track off a CD for a close to the program.
I only need the ABC's of getting started for now. Please direct me to the right source. Adobe wanted $39.00 to help.

http://www.lynda.com have some online training for Audition 3. I had a general subscription there and tried it out, and it's nice! It isn't free, but for little money you get up to speed very quickly and perhaps with a more hands-on approach that you'd prefer over reading yourself. We're all different.

Recording audio in Adobe Audition from a DVD played on Windows Media Player

I use Adobe Audition for audio production. I should be able to play a DVD via Windows Media Player and record the audio from it using Adobe Audition.
It isn't working.
I get a pop-up message indicating: INVALID ASIO INPUT (it continues to read) ! The selected input port or ASIO driver is invalid. Please change your settings in the audio hardware setup dialogue.
I tried that approach, and was not offered the ability to make that change.
Anyone have any ideas? My much older VAIO Sony computer handled this perfectly.
Thanks!

Hey Terry
in the corporate world wee have to contend with clients who are all windows based and prevented from installing anything on their systems.
I use Flip4Mac, Studio Pro HD, with the following mix of settings;
Open clip in QT, I do also use compressor but for some reason I like using QT for exporting to WMV.
File/Export
Export:movie to windows media
Use: One pass VBR, Presentation (high), 16:9
Options>
Advanced... input type: interlace Lower field first(DV), output type: progressive
Coding method: Two pass VBR
Give this a shot and then tweak to suit your needs, oh and you can save your settings as a preset for QuickTime.
Within Compressor there is no export to WMV, so you have to start with another setting and create your own saving it for future use.

My Documents\Adobe\Audition\3.0\Scripts

Every time I start Audition 3.0 a folder is created in my documents.
Adobe\Audition\3.0\Scripts
Is there any way to stop this from happening? It gets annoying.
Thanks

Well, erm, you need to appreciate that windows never was designed for home
use, it is designed for corporate use. It is important in managed IT to know
where the users data are, because they are generally the only stuff that is
not expendable. This is also about the beauty of relative adressing, even
though that part of it never really works, there is always some program that
will parse the relative adress to absolute once, and then use the absolute
adress rather than the system variable %my documents%, or whatever it is
called internally ...
The beauty of the concept is that all those system defined folders are
relocatable via system policies. You yourself can right click on the My
Documents folder and tell it what physical folder it is to point at.
I tend to have multiple user accounts on my machines, ie. one for
administrating the box, one for gp computing and one for audio. Because of
this I often put things that need to be accessible from all accounts in the
shared documents folder, that is what it is there for.
In the corporate network context, ie. on a Windows domain, it is possible to
configure a user account so that it interface is independent of the computer
you log on to, but this requries you to use those system defined folders,
because it is done by mapping the variables to where the data actually are.
You may find it useful to define your own way of doing things, and you are
free to do whatever you want, including that you can - and sometimes
should - change the default software installation paths, but if you have
more than one account and/or more than one computer, then you will
appreciate the beauty of standardizing, even if it be a local standard.
Another thing you can learn from corporate computing is to use meaningful
drive letters, I always move CD/DVD drives to the drive letter T, and
burners to the drive letter S, this to have them well out of the way,
graphics go on the G: drive and audio on the L: drive.
Kind regards

Can't Edit Clips in Adobe Audition

So now I suddenly can't use one of my favorite features of Premiere - editing a clip in Adobe Audition.
I just upgraded to CS6 Master Collection. When I right-click on an audio clip in Premiere, "Edit with Adobe Audition" is grayed out. When I click the audio clip and select Edit > Edit in Adobe Audition, it goes through all the preparation, but Audition doesn't launch.
Bug? Is there something I need to switch on somewhere? Dynammic Link Media is selected, so I'm at a loss right now.
Any suggestions?

look at the file extension of the audio file...
if you brought the clip into Premier, for example as an mp4, or maybe brought in a wav, or mp3 file, then you must change the default program that opens these extensions to Audition.
Just experience the same problem, removed Premier, reinstalled, same issue.
Opened previous project that had mp4 on timeline....
went to the file explorer and found and mp4 file, right click on file, open with, choose default program, change the default program to Audition....
I have changed the default program for all audio files now to be audition.
Keep in mind that if you have mp3 files that you like to listen to while you work, they will now no longer open in media player, or WinAmp by default.
You will now see that if you have unlinked the audio from the video clip, that when you right click on the audio file in the timeline, and choose edit original, it will now open in Audition....
...enjoy!!

Trial Adobe Audition Will Not Open PKF File

I downloaded the Adobe Audition Trial software and I made two recordings. Six hours later I tried to open both files and got the following error message:"Error: File not supported by any currently registered plug-ins." THEY ARE PKF FILES!!! What happened? Is this forewarning of things to come if I buy Adobe Audition? One file is important and I would like to open it again so I can transcribe it to another audio format.

blimpeople wrote:
Whoa, you saved the day. I had no idea Adobe Audition automatically generated a .wav file. I didn't create a folder or a .wav file. Thanks.
It doesn't - it's a pkf file that gets generated whenever you open anything at all in Audition. It doesn't get saved with all formats you could save to though - just wav files, which are the Audition default because that's what it uses internally. But, if you got a pkf file, then you sure as hell did generate a wav file - because the pkf wouldn't exist otherwise!
You can delete pkf files if you want, and all that means is that when you want to reopen your file in Audition, it will take longer, because the pkf file has to be recreated internally. This isn't much of an issue with small wav files, but with big ones it can make a considerable difference to the opening time.
