Video Frame Rate
Displays the current and target frame rate of open video files in the Multitrack Editor.
File Status
Indicates when processing is occurring for effects and amplitude adjustments.

(Multitrack Editor). For example, a 44,100 Hz, 16-bit stereo file is displayed as 44100 Hz

Stereo.
Uncompressed Audio Size
Indicates either how large the active audio file would be if saved to an uncompressed format
such as WAV and AIFF, or the total size of a multitrack session.
Duration
Shows you the length of the current waveform or session. For example, 0:01:247 means the waveform or
session is 1.247 seconds long.
Free Space
Shows how much space is available on your hard drive.
Free Space (Time)
Displays the time remaining for recording, based upon the currently selected sample rate. This
value is shown as minutes, seconds, and thousandths of seconds. For example, if Adobe Audition is set to record 8-bit
mono audio at 11,025 Hz, the time remaining might read 4399:15.527 free. Change the recording options to 16-bit
stereo at 44,100 Hz, and the time remaining becomes 680:44.736 free.
By default, Free Space (Time) information is hidden. To show it, right-click the status bar, and select Free Space
(Time) from the pop-up menu.
Detect Dropped Samples
Indicates that samples were missing during recording or playback. If this indicator appears,
consider rerecording the file to avoid audible dropouts.
