Yes, if you can get virtual audio cable to work, it's possible to do all of your recording in Audition. Recording Skype also has its issues, and there are several Skype-specific recorders out there - many of them free, and easy to find with a search. Where they differ from regular hub-style audio interfaces is that they don’t do digital-to-analog conversion, meaning that they can’t output audio to a speaker system. You only use it for capture - doesn't really do anything else, but it sets up the whole recording scenario for you, and also lets you capture the mic too. Adapter-Style Audio Interfaces: Adapter-style audio interfaces take an analog mic signal, convert it into a digital one and send it to the computer. What I use is SoundTap - Streaming Audio Recorder. Next, add a new Voice & microphones track to your Soundtrap project (2).

Please refer the to manual of your interface or USB mic for instructions on how to operate it. Trouble is, that's seriously difficult to do, and it's not my preferred way at all these days. If your audio interface or USB mic has a gain control, turn it up a little until you get a signal from your mic.

If no newer try Driver tab > Update > Browse > Let Me Pick to try all previously installed. Choose Microphone then Driver tab, then Update > Automatically. There is a technically very advanced way that in principle would let you record streaming audio direct into Audition, and that uses something called Virtual Audio Cable. Try updating and reinstalling the Microphone driver in Device Manager reached by right clicking the Start Menu, then Device Manager, then Audio Input and Output devices, then Microphone. Under the default format dropdown, set it to 1 channel, 16 bit, 48000 Hz (DVD Quality) or 44100 Hz (CD Quality) and it should work. There are, fortunately, a number of ways around this - some more complicated than others. Go to your system sound properties, go to the recording tab, find the microphone, right click it and go to properties, then go to the advanced tab. So they make it rather hard for you to do in a lot of instances. but unfortunately Microsoft and the RIAA don't want you to record desktop audio (aka 'what you hear', etc) at all, because you might record something that's copyrighted. Yes, it's a nice simple thing you want to do.
