1. Bin in Project panel

   Hello!
   It would be very useful and necessary to have the possibility to create Bins in the audition Project panel. There are sessions with many files. Having the option to create bins as in Premiere or After Effects would be more ordered.
   Thank you

2. Exposing VST/VST3 parameters to the control surface plugin APIs

   Audition, unfortunately, doesn't expose VST/VST3 parameters to the control surface plugin APIs nor to a universal MIDI learn capability. I'd like to recommend to expose this parameter to MIDI so that it would benefit users of every audio control surface (specifically looking at getting Monogram Controllers for Audition). If exposed to the control surface plugin API, it would benefit other similar devices to Monogram that use a native integration with Audition.

5. Trackpad use has degraded in recent updates

   I use a Magic Trackpad or MBP touchpad when working in Audition. I could scroll and pinch to zoom in with precision (even while the audio was playing). In the last few updates, this has gone downhill in a big way. Scrolling almost invariably now zooms out and the scrolling motion is... I believe the term is "janky". PLEASE fix -- this is adding significant time to my editing workflow. What was once seamless and invisible is now a glaring time suck. Thanks for looking at it.

   Needs More Info  ·  Michael V (Adobe) responded

   Hi Al- Thanks for the report. When did the degradation start? New version of Audition? New version of macOS? Thanks!

6. Folders in Files Window

   Currently there is no way to organise your imported files within the Files window. I would love to sort my audio files into Music, SFX, Dialogue, Video etc. After Effects and Premiere both support this and would be a great addition to Audition as well.

7. Tap tempo/BPM

   I would love the ability to tap the tempo on the mouse or keyboard and get the metronome and everything else about the song to follow that bpm.

8. aaf import PLEASE!!!!

   Two years since people started asking for this. Still nothing. I guess it's too much trouble. I'll stick with Pro Tools then.

9. Allow finer adjustments to playback speed, allow changes to horizontal scrolling performance

   JKL is pretty familiar to anyone who uses Audition regularly. If you edit podcasts, you know how crucial this can be for the purposes of saving time. The problem is, much like the terrible means of searching for silence in Audition (for the purposes of dialogue editing, anyway), it’s far too rigid and playback sounds incredibly unnatural. Right now, I have my shuttle increases set to half speed, which gives me a roughly 1.3X playback. I’d like to use a higher speed, but anything greater than that is useless for spoken word. They’re chipmunks and you can’t understand anything. Pro Tools gives you the option to perfectly set playback speed to your preference since it allows you to enter an exact percentage. This is immensely helpful. And there should also be a toggle for how the pitch of the output changes. I mean, every single podcast and audiobook player can do this, but some of the best implementations are Overcast and Libby (and even Audible), both of which do a good job of allowing you to smoothly adjust speed for preference with minimal destruction to the “legibility” of the words spoken.

   Along these lines, I use a Kensington SlimBlade for moving around my DAW. There are some options to scrolling speed and direction, and I have my upper-right button set to allow me to hold it to scroll horizontally; but what I really want is for Audition to allow me to fine-tune horizontal scrolling behavior even further. I want to be able to dial in the speed and inertia of scrolling at will and even assign hot keys to change behavior on the fly as needed.

   It seems like every DAW maker, with perhaps the odd exception of Ferrite on iPadOS (which itself still has a long way to go), was blindsided by the rise of spoken word for the purposes of editing. With the onset of audiobooks and podcasts rising rapidly even today virtually every DAW is ill-suited for the task. It’s like everything out there is thinking in terms of a 3-4 minute song and not long form. There is the exception of movie scores, but even then it’s a very specialized task that’s ultimately broken up into much smaller bits that are later added to the final product in usually a video editing environment. You can sort of do this with audiobooks, but even then a typical session is hours long. Podcasts are often 30-120 minutes, easily. We need a way to move around these editing environments much, much more quickly. We need playback that is much, much more adaptable to listening quickly. We need tools like strip silence that eliminate the unnecessary stuff recorded when another person is speaking, which helps tremendously with not only overall editing speed, but also the application of effects. We need a method better than groups and locking to timeline to prevent accidentally getting audio out of sync. We need excellent multicore performance so we don’t have to rely on pre-rendering as aggressively before mixing down, which can take an hour or more for the typical hourlong podcast. Leveraging just one core is just INSANE to me in 2020.

   One of these days someone will come along that will not only create a purpose-built podcasting DAW that not only thinks in the terms above, but they’ll also have it on multiple platforms (including mobile), they’ll have default layouts and preset workspaces better suited to the task of long-form dialogue, and they’ll support excellent plugins while still cutting out the cruft that comes with supporting music or soundtracks first. This wold be a huge, huge product. It’ll think about automatically routing and recording remote audio during guest call-ins while also recoding locally. It’ll think about syncing dialogue (it can use the remote track as reference, even as guests send in their local audio), it’ll think about (as perhaps an even better alternative to strip silence) automatically creating disparate clips of only the portions where people are talking using the other already synced tracks as a way to gather intelligence about who is speaking when, and so much more.

   The first DAW to really understand the needs of podcast and audiobook editing — which are in some ways is much more lightweight, and in many ways more esoteric than that of music or soundtracks — is going to OWN this space. They’ll have a huge, huge hit on their hands if they make a purpose-built tool.

   I saw the Sensei demo recently where they automatically isolated ums and ahs. This is indeed a start and gives me hope for Audition, but at the same time Adobe moves so painfully slow and so much of the low-hanging fruit has already been ignored. And what’s the point of a demo if I can’t use it for, what, another 2-3 years? It doesn’t help.

   What helps is simpler stuff you folks can implement now.

10. Accessibility improvements for blind users

    Welcome
    I am blind user of your trial version of adobe audition, however i am totally blind user with big experience of using Windows operating system and MacOS with screen readers. Unfortunatelly the adobe audition has not accessible on both platforms. It is most important to add the accessibility features to your APP such as accessibility assistant in acrobat reader. There are lots of users with visually empires around the world who use the computers and mobile devices as second eyes. I am radio journalist and editing audio material is my work, so adding this feature will improve my work rapidly.
    Kind regards Lukas
    Ps. I can test your result in the beta team channel or another way.

11. Please change the font size and the color schemes: too hard to read!

    I couldn't believe it the first time I opened the new Adobe Audition interface. The gray on gray and tiny font is IMPOSSIBLE to read easily in any color "scheme". Please go back to the previous Adobe Audition interface, which was wonderful and much easier.

12. reset marker numbering

    Currently, when I create a series of markers they are numbered sequentially which is fine. ie, 1, 2, 3... However, if I delete, say Marker 3, and then make a new marker, that one is named is Marker 4.

    I would expect the Marker name to resume at 3 since I just deleted 3. This is important to me because I often create selection markers for glossary terms that need to remain in the exact sequence in which they were recorded. If I delete a marker there is no way to go back and reset the count without deleting all the markers, closing the file and starting over. Manually changing the marker names is a time consuming process and definitely not a desirable option.

    It would be great if Audition would query the list of existing markers when a new marker was made, and automatically name the new one to immediately follow the value of the last existing marker.

13. urgently need a light mode

    I am sorry to repeat this but I feel it is URGENT. I have bright lights behind my desk that I cannot avoid (an open window) and I can't see the interface properly because it is on a black background. We seriously seriously seriously need to be able to make the background a light colour. I can't see what i am doing on a sunny day and I can't move the window nor myself. The same goes for Premiere. I know there are many people who find the dark background unacceptable. it is not a fashion statement, it is a practicality and a VERY much needed issue to have resolved.

    Kind regards
    Mike Howell

14. View Edit Window and Multi-track window at the same time.

    I would like the ability to have the Edit Mode open on one screen and the Multitrack Mode open on another screen.

    The way I cut in Premiere is similar. I have Source and Program Monitors, along with Project, Effects, etc. on one screen and a large timeline for the entirety of the second monitor screen.

    I'd love to be able to do something similar in Audition. Have both Edit and Multi-track open at all times. This way I can easily and quickly doctor clips, then immediately adjust in the multitrack view.

15. Use the same keyboard shortcuts for the Razor Cut Tool in Audition and Premiere

    It's infuriating switching between the two programs and having to mentally switch between using 'C' in Premiere and 'R' in Audition. They do the same thing, so they should use the same shortcut.

16. How about a light user interface for people who are not Goth fans?

    For those of us who work in bright rooms all of the current interface display settings are so dark that it is very (very) hard to use.
    There used to be a light interface, when did that get lost?
    I know dark is supposedly 'cool' these days - but this too shall pass.

18. Grouping of channels on the Mixer like in Pro Tools

    In Pro Tools you can assign multiple tracks to single groups so things you do to one channel happens to all of them in that group.
    For example, group all the drum tracks, select that Group, adjust the fader, mute, solo, turn FX on or off of one channel in that Group and they all do it.
    Please note it isn't the same as bussing the tracks to a single Aux.
    Multiple tracks could be in more than one Group.

19. Automatically adapt to audio input/output device changes

    I spend a lot of time on a laptop (MacBook Pro w/ Thunderbolt 3 / USB-C ports). Every time I shut and re-open my laptop, every time I unplug my headphones for a sec, etc, Audition refuses to play because the hardware has changed, saying "Audition has detected a problem with the current hardware settings." This happens several times a day.

    Even if I only unplug my headphones for a sec and then plug them back in, it requires me to go into settings, choose a different output and then switch my setting back to headphone output. This has long been an issue but it was a rarer occurrence when working on an older Mac with a headphone jack.

    Logic Pro is much smarter about this by the way. It rescans and makes good assumptions about what I want to be listening on -- if I plug in a known usb headphone or interface, it switches the audio over there automatically.

    To reproduce:

    1) use USB-c headphones on a Mac, listening successfully to Audition.
    2) Unplug the headphones
    3) now try to play -- you get an error message saying: "Audition has detected a problem with the current hardware settings."
    4) open more info and see "The default output device appears connected, but is not responding. Check your audio device and confirm device settings, or select a different default output device."
    5) open Audio Hardware or System Audio Settings, which are available through the window.

    Preferred behavior: (Logic style): rescan system audio, pop up a warning or notification, but immediately switch to playing audio out of headphones, interface, or if no other choice, the laptop speakers.

    Alternate behavior v1: Immediately open Audio Hardware preference window so user can make a new selection. Also add "System Preferences" button within Audio Hardware preference window if user may have a reason to switch System Preference.

    Alternative behavior v2: Do everything as you do it now, but remove the step where users have to click "more info" to see Audio Hardware and System Preferences buttons. Just show these buttons when you show the error message. For all the times I've been through this, I've never open nor even noticed the "more info" option.

    I spend a lot of time on a laptop (MacBook Pro w/ Thunderbolt 3 / USB-C ports). Every time I shut and re-open my laptop, every time I unplug my headphones for a sec, etc, Audition refuses to play because the hardware has changed, saying "Audition has detected a problem with the current hardware settings."
