pk files are essential for the display of waveforms and the program recreates them if you delete them - unless it's a file format which doesn't have them. If you are experiencing slow loading time, it's probably because you have deleted the pk files, or because you have locked tracks but not...

The supplied drivers have been fine for me with all versions of Cool Edit / Audition, but there were some oddities with Cubase SX until I downloaded and installed the latest drivers.

Need a better title for your question to get a quick reply... anyway, try clicking on the "In1" button beside the track.

There's a few around - which one? (But I've not ready any of them!).

You may need to mix down some tracks to a new track, mute the original tracks, then add further processing to the new track.

For most purposes it's best to apply any processing after recording. Otherwise you might find you've got a great recording permanently messed up by the wrong processing. Relevant subjects in the manual might be Dynamic Processing, Hard Limiting, and Group Waveform Normalise.

Try the manual for "batch" or "script" or "group waveform normalise". I don't use any of those myself so can't comment further.

Uninterruptible Power Supply (I think!) - more than a surge protector, these things have a constantly charged battery which powers your system through an inverter, so whatever happens to the incoming power will not affect your system. They usually have enough battery reserve to enable you to...

An autotune-like effect is built in to Audition 1.5 but you can't use it in any other version. Try the free download of AA 1.5 maybe.

"and really suits my needs" - exactly. You've got to think in terms of the job you are trying to do and the money you've got to spend. Cool Edit / Audition generally has a fine reputation for the quality of its processing algorithyms (sp?) - I use a SENSIBLE amount of hard limiting on...

There's a site (and I won't give you the name) which claims to sell a variety of Adobe products at ridiculous prices. Buried on the site is some small print which says that what they are selling is backup copies of software you promise you already own. You might get 10 to 20% off from a...

Here the power failure was the "off on off on" kind in the space of a few seconds. Two of the PCs here were fine, but the third could not be persuaded to reboot - "Windows Protection Error" - I tried many things gleaned from the net, but to no avail. Looked like corruption of drivers and the...

Nothing more from me for the moment (my PC got zapped by a power failure and I'm busy reinstalling EVERYTHING - grrrrr - yes, I should have a full backup and a UPS....).

http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/magic/audition/win/2.02/audition_user_guide.pdf might still get the 1.0 manual?

Any time you use "What you hear" you are recording.... what you hear - probably including all previous tracks you've recorded. Mute it / deselect it.

Favourite saying of mine - "When all else fails, read the manual". And I admit to tending to work that way!

"You can record WITH reverb or other effects, depending on the version you have; I don't think you can preview without recording." - I'm not sure whether you meant what you said, but I'd clarify that no version of Cool Edit / Audition allows you to apply an effect to a track while it is being...

Should be possible with a machine with enough grunt - but I still wouldn't do it!

It depends very much on the material and the amount of noise, but my experience is that burbles and other artifacts become noticable if you try to reduce by more than about 15dB. The slider control often gives best results when between 50 and 80%. Also, the small frequency graph control can...

Exactly what are you trying to do, and what goes wrong when you try? You'll get more answers if you ask more specific questions. You've both mentioned reducing hiss - where is this hiss coming from? Have you tried noise reduction rather than hiss reduction? Try going through the steps in the...
