Right, but using something like this would enable me to use less compression on my vocals. Which is what I'd prefer to do. I've had it for years, but I was using it for a different function. Never tried the write feature. I'm going to experiment with it. Hopefully it works on a bus because it...

Thanks. His process makes sense, to simply go down in volume instead of up and down. This way breaths can be kept very low without it increasing them. Instead it just reduces the peaks, which is what I'm looking to do. This way the vocal is evened out before ever applying a compressor or...

Anytime I've used normalization, it simply takes a measure of the loudest part of the track and then matches from there. The problem with my vocals are the large peaks. Like the peaks in some places are 6 db louder than the rest of the clip. I'm trying to find a quick/easy way to reduce those...

The newest driver/m-audio program doesn't allow you to select bit depth or sample rate. Just buffer/latency, but it states it's running in 44100 and the bit depth default is 24. In Audition, my session is 44100 and the only options are 16 bit or 32 bit for recording/mixng. I have 32 bit...

That would just normalize the overall volume of the entire clip right? It wouldn't treat each word of a clip? The vocals aren't the same volume because the performance is very aggressive rap. Meaning some words are much louder than others. Lots of punch ins. I also use multiple...

Back in the day, I would record just a couple simple layers of vocals so it was easy to match everything up. Recently, I've been recording tons of layers, and sometimes vocals line by line. This is creating sessions with 100-200 tracks. This is making it very time consuming to properly match...

Thanks for the replies. I seem to have figured out a work around. First, it appears if my beat/instrumentals are in the same bit depth as my vocals, the lag is less. For instance, if the beat is 32 bit, then the vocals need to be 32 bit. The song I was having the biggest issues with was 16...

Pretty sure it's Windows 7 Pro 64-bit

In Audition 1.5 it allows you to select a temporary save folder.... Should this number be large or small? Maybe my folder size is too big and because of this, it isn't saving the files properly and it's bogging down my system? Or it's saving way too many files. And this is why it appears to...

I might give it a try. I see it has a free 60 day trial. But will it accept my Audition sessions?

Clocking mismatch? How does one fix that? All my files are 44100. It's not always a drift. Sometimes it's off at the very beginning too. The latency is fine for first 30-50 tracks/takes. But after that, it progressively gets worse. I'm confused what exactly changes a couple hours in..... If I...

I did a fresh Windows install. It didn't fix the issue.

Thanks, but I have version 1.5. Meaning it doesn't use ASIO drivers.... I hate the layout of version 2+. My M-audio device has it owns little ASIO program. I have it set to the lowest latency. If this program isn't open, the latency is much worse. Like an entire second off. I'm unsure if my...

Hi, a couple weeks back, Windows automatically updated some drivers on my Win 7 machine and a ton of latency issues have sprung up. I have an M-Audio 192/4 and Audition 1.5. Before this update, I didn't have any issues. I reinstalled Windows thinking it would solve the issue. It didn't.... It...

I seem to have a ghost error sound within my session that I cannot find. When I play my vocal or instrumental busses separately I don't hear the error. They are fine. But when played together there is a pop/crack/distortion sound every time at exactly 57 seconds. I exported each bus and...
