Ok, I do some heavy mixing in Audition.
I've regularly mixed sessions in Audition with 50 - 60 tracks, with as many as 40 running effects (locked) on them.
However, over the last couple of weeks, it's getting very slow. I'll be mixing a session, and pan a track or adjust the volume (in real time all in multitrack view) and it will take Audition 30-40 seconds to make the adjustment in it's sound output. It's becoming REALLY annoying.
I'm wondering if anyone else has run into this at all? I have my buffers set at the maximum, and my system is more than capable of running these sessions.
I have a P IV 3.2 Ghz with over 1gb of DDR. The only thing I can think of that could be affecting this, is my hard drive capacity... but I still don't believe it "should" be affecting it. I have a 120gb drive with just over 20gb of space on it.
When I'm running Audition, I've monitored the CPU and RAM output, and I've never peaked over 70% on CPU and Audition has never used more than 446mb of RAM. Is this a problem? Is there a way to make Audition utilize more RAM than it is?
Any insight here would be helpful. I'd hate to move to another platform because of something like this, I love Audition. BTW, I'm still running audition 1.5 as I don't have the $ to upgrade yet. Not even sure if I will upgrade, as I have the ability to live-monitor vocals via hardware and I don't need the ASIO drivers for it...
Anyway, thanks.
