New History panel – gives you the ability take waveform and multitrack mixes back to earlier states within the same session just like you can do with graphic edits in Photoshop.

Crossfades are no longer incorrectly added to grouped clips when overlapped with non-grouped clips. Invalid crossfades will no longer be added to the end of a previously trimmed clip after enabling or disabling looping. Invalid crossfades for clips after enabling non-session tempo-based looping have been addressed. Dragging crossfaded clips onto the master track no longer creates two additional tracks and an error in the crossfades.

Several scenarios where crossfade changes could corrupt a session were addressed. Closing a session without exiting the rewire app no longer causes Adobe Audition to save a blank session. Undo no longer becomes disabled after undoing the creation of unique copies of two crossfaded clips. Crossfaded clips no longer disappear after undoing move clips.

CD burning would sometimes create a corrupted disk but still report a successful burn. Applying the Clip/Pop Eliminator no longer crashes the application.
