How to Place a Marker When Recording in Adobe Audition. Is there a way to push a key to set a marker or a cue mark while recording in Adobe Audition? Recording (live or studio) Adobe Audition CS 5.5. Member for 13 years 1 month Submitted by TheJackAttack on Fri, - 14:24. Recording (live or studio) Well, the new version is out after a five year wait. As Audition is my main DAW I went ahead and purchased the upgrade and standalone while it was cheap. Academic pricing is.

Let’ say you want to plug in your musical instrument to your computer and record straight into Audition. Sounds like a great idea right? Well if you’re like me, there is one small problem in trying that: You can’t hear what you are playing! Luckily, Adobe Audition has a very handy tool that is available to you in order for you to hear your playback live through your computer speakers or headphones!

The first step in this tutorial is to create a new “Multitrack Session.” This can be accomplished by going to File –> New –> Multitrack Session.

Once selected, a dialogue box will appear in which you can set your bitrate and name your project.

When you have finished imputing all of your personalization, click OK.

You should now have a multitrack sesion that looks a bit like this:

Now you have to set up your input and your output devices. On most computers, the Default input device is the microphone jack, ad the main output is the computer speakers unless headphones or external speakers are attached. The way to check which input and output adobe is using is to look at the track in which you are wishing to record onto and the input is marked as an arrow to the right, and the output as an arrow to the left as seen below:

To change the input/output, simply click on the triangles pointed right at the end of the box stating which input or output is being used.

Once you have selected your input and output, click the box with R in the upper right of the Track 1 box as shown above so that the box becomes red.

You are one step away from being able to monitor yourself!

Simply click on the box with the I in it which has now become live so that the box becomes orange. You will now be able to hear yourself through whatever output you send the sound through!

Now all you have to do is press record, and you will be able to monitor whatever you are recording!

Setting Device Order

Before you get rolling with Audition, you need to make sure you've configured it to use the proper devices in your system for recording and playing audio. This is particularly important if your system contains more than one sound card, for example, or MIDI devices.

The first thing you need to do when configuring Audition to play and record audio files is to select and sequence the audio devices on your computer that you want Audition to use. You use the Device Order window, accessed through the Options menu.

The Device Order window contains four tabs. Start by setting the Playback Devices tab and Recording Devices tab. You may want to use the same devices for both recording and playback, or you may have separate devices for each function.

To set playback device order

  1. In the Audition menu, choose Options > Device Order (Figure 3.1).

    Figure 3.1 To choose and prioritize playback and recording devices for use in Audition, open the Device Order window, accessed via the Options menu.

    The Device Order window opens.
  2. Select the Playback Devices tab (Figure 3.2).

    Figure 3.2 The Playback Devices tab in the Device Order window is where you specify the devices Audition should use for playback in the Edit and Multitrack views.

    The Unused Playback Devices pane of the tab lists the devices available on your computer that are capable of playing back audio.
  3. Select the device that you want to use for playback in Edit view.
  4. Click the Use in EV (Edit view) button. The [EV] marker will appear next to the device's name.
  5. Select the first device that you plan to use for playback in Multitrack view.
  6. Click Use to move it to the Multitrack Device Preference Order pane.
  7. If you want to move a device from the Multitrack Device Preference Order list back to the Unused Record Devices list, highlight the device and click Remove.
  8. Repeat with any additional devices in the order you want to use them. You'll be able to assign different devices to different tracks in Multitrack view, but not until you've configured this setting.
