Chapter 28: Fades and Crossfades 617
S-Curve Selects an S-shaped curve, which inverts
its beginning and end characteristics. This makes it
possible to fade in faster at the start of the curve,
and slower at the end. S-shaped curves are useful
with material that is difficult to fade effectively. S-
curves can be edited by dragging the curve in the
curve editor.
Preset Curves Seven commonly used preset
curves are provided for fast creation. These can be
edited by dragging the end points of the curve in
the curve editor portion of this dialog. The seven
presets are as follows:
 Preset Curve 1 fades in at full volume immedi-
ately at the beginning of the fade and keeps it there
throughout the fade.
 Preset Curve 2 fades in quickly in the begin-
ning, reaching full amplitude fairly early in the
fade.
 Preset Curve 3 fades in moderately fast.
 Preset Curve 4 fades in with a linear fade curve.
This is the default curve.
 Preset Curve 5 fades in slowly at the beginning
of the fade.
 Preset Curve 6 fades in even more slowly than
the previous curve.
 Preset Curve 7 silences any audio until the end
of the fade.
