Now in this latest release of Adobe Audition, we've got access to the WASAPI driver, which is new Windows method for talking to sound devices. Now you'll notice that when I switch my device class, I'm getting a warning message saying 'Well, hold on a second. Could record/playback just fine using Adobe Audition 3. I needed more inputs so I decided to upgrade to the AudioBox VSL 44 - and everything went down from there. I uninstalled the previous AudioBox drivers, downloaded the latest VSL 44 1.2 drivers from website, ran through install connecting the VSL 44 at the appropriate time, and the drivers.

1. Setting Device Order

Before you can bring all of Audition's features to bear on your audio, you need to bring your audio clips into the program. And you need to configure Audition to work with the audio devices that are part of your computer system.

Settings For Internal Playback Adobe Audition Mac

In this chapter, I'll detail the procedures for configuring Audition to work with your sound cards to record and play audio. I'll also show you how you can bring audio from disparate sources into Audition's Edit and Multitrack views for editing, saving, and composing.

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.

2. Select the device that you want to use for recording in Edit view.
3. Click the Use in EV (Edit view) button. The [EV] marker will appear next to the device's name.
4. Select the first device that you plan to use for recording in Multitrack view.
5. Click Use to move it to the Multitrack Device Preference Order window.
6. 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.
7. Repeat with any additional devices in the order you want to use them.

We love our Macs, but a few of us are not loving that Audition still runs only on Windows. However, with an Intel-based Mac running Leopard and a copy of 32-bit releases of Windows XP or Windows Vista, Boot Camp could be the answer for you. In fact, our team has found that running Audition 3 in Boot Camp is no different than running it in Windows on a laptop or desktop with good hardware specs (For Audition system requirements, please go to: http://www.adobe.com/products/audition/systemreqs/.)

When I want to record multiple tracks of audio with full effects and monitoring, I run Audition using Boot Camp. Audition works smoothly on an Intel Mac because Boot Camp runs Windows natively, just as any PC would. However, when all I want is to make some minor edits, restore some noisy files or perform some batch conversions, I run Audition from OS X using virtualization software from VMWare or Parallels. Virtualization has opened the door to all sorts of new possibilities for our application library making the OS less important as systems get more powerful, CPUs get more cores and memory gets cheaper. Both Parallels Desktop and VMWare Fusion allow you to run Windows sessions without logging out of OS X (you can even use them with a Boot Camp installed partition). And since the VMWare Fusion and Parallels Desktop hardware configuration is customizable, you can adjust the amount of RAM available, which USB or Firewire devices it has access to or several other parameters.

So basically, if you plan to use Audition on an Intel-based Mac for one-track recording, light multitrack mixing, or editing and restoration, both Parallels Desktop and VMWare Fusion will do the job. If you want to record and mix multiple audio tracks, you should run Audition using Boot Camp.
