However, the design of the hardware device driver and the amount of effects processing can potentially make monitoring difficult (or unusable).

Buffer settings (see step 6 below) can help reduce latency. Generally, latency over 10 milliseconds can produce an audible delay between playback of existing tracks and monitoring. In Adobe Audition, this discrepancy in playback delay, between existing tracks and monitoring inputs, is where latency is most noticeable. Existing audio (that is, audio files on a track in the Multitrack) doesn't exhibit the same amount of latency since the tracks are already digitized. Each of these steps contributes to the audio latency which is measured in milliseconds (ms). Then, it's converted back to analog form so it can be heard (monitored) at the sound card outputs.

The audio signal is digitized, routed through Adobe Audition then any effects applied processes it. Adobe Technical Support can use this information to better assist you, if you call.Īudio Latency is the time that an audio signal takes to pass from the sound card input to the sound cards output. Record the tasks you perform and the results of each, including errors or other problems. To benefit most from this document, perform the tasks in order. It's possible that it's the only application that is memory-intensive or processor-intensive enough to expose the problem. Although some problems occur only when you work with Adobe Audition, Adobe Audition isn't necessarily the cause.

Recording problems can manifest themselves in many different ways, including (but not limited to) the following: This document can help you resolve problems that occur while you record, playback, or monitor in Adobe Audition CS5.5, CS6, or CC.
