menu.
Crossfaded Clips.
Selecting a fade handle and pressing the
Delete
key deletes the fade, unless the Create
Fades on Clip Edges option is enabled in the Record/Warp/Launch Preferences. In this
case, pressing
Delete
returns the fade handle to a default length of 4 ms. With this option
enabled, new clips in the Arrangement View will have these short declicking fades by
default.
Automatically Create
Short Fades At Clip
Edges.
Another result of enabling the Create Fades on Clip Edges option is that adjacent audio
clips will get automatic 4 ms crossfades. These can then be edited just like manually-created
crossfades.
There are some limits to the length of fades and crossfades:
 Fades cannot cross a clip's loop boundaries.
 A clip's start and end fades cannot overlap each other.
When a fade handle is selected, a dotted red line will appear on the relevant clip to indicate
the limit for that fade handle. This is especially helpful when editing crossfades, because
one clip's loop boundary may be hidden under the other clip.
Note that fades are a property of clips rather than the tracks that contain them, and are
independent of automation envelopes.
