Thanks for the reply, Sorry about the lack of info.(I'm new to all this) I went back to the post I had read and it turned out to be an older version that was being talked about. I waded through the phone support at Adobe and they said that this has been remedied and Audition 3 will allow more than the basic 8 channels. Yee haw, on to the planning and more reading to hopefully answer all my other dumb questions without having to clutter up the forum
