I know many people suffer of suddenly disappearing spectral view in Adobe Audition 2 and 3. Here the workaround to solve this problem (found here)

Valid for AA2 and AA3.

Since this problem is related to the audition_settings.xml file, I found this workaround to solve the problem in AA spectral frequency view; note that it’s a workaround, it doesn’t solve the root cause of the problem.

Short description: make the audition_settings.xml file read-only.

Long description:

– Delete audition_settings.xml
– Start AA
– Leave AA running and go to C:\Documents and Settings\ [your name] \ Application Data \ Adobe \ Audition \ 2.0 or 3.0
– right click on the audition_settings.xml (re-created by AA), click properties, and check the read only box.

Spectral frequency display function is restored.
