Importing Markers from Adobe Audition

Post by youthful1 » Wed Aug 26, 2020 6:29 pm

MAcOS Catalina 10.15.3

I work with Audiobook Narrators who use Adobe Audition. They use markers to show me where to insert the dialogue. Right now I'm working with Audition and can see the markers they leave when they send me the WAV files. If I switch over to Audacity, will I still see their markers?

No you won't. Adobe Audition's "markers" are specific to Adobe Audition. As far as I'm aware, no other programs see them, (not even earlier versions of Adobe Audition). Markers can however be exported from Audition as a CSV file, and it should be possible to convert that to Audacity's "Label" format (https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/imp ... abels.html)
