When this option is selected, Audition dithers audio from a file that's encoded at a bit depth higher than your sound device can support. Choose 3-byte packed PCM, 4-byte PCM, or 4-byte IEEE float. You can also set the device to play in mono in Edit view.Īs long as nothing is selected in the Limit Playback To area, you can choose a setting here to specify how the software sends 32-bit audio to your device. If your sound card is capable of playing back only 8-or 16-bit files, but you're working with 32-bit audio, you can check one of these boxes to downsample the audio during playback. When this box is checked, Audition uses this device for audio playback in Edit view. If not, or if you want to change the setting, click the Change button to open the Device Order window and make the adjustment. You may have already configured this in the Options > Device Order window. This field indicates the order number assigned to the device for use in the Multitrack view.
