Chapter 28: Fades and Crossfades 627
Nudging Clips Adjacent to
Crossfades
When you nudge either of the clips that contributes
to a crossfade, the fade stretches to preserve the
relative position of the crossfade start and end
points. The amount of stretch depends on the
amount of overlap between the contributing clips.
If you nudge a clip beyond the boundary of avail-
able audio for the crossfade, the fade is removed.
To nudge a clip and stretch its crossfade:
1 Use the Time Grabber tool to select one of the
contributing clips to the crossfade.
2 Nudge the clip by pressing Plus (+) or
Minus (–) on the numeric keypad.
Separating Clips that Include
Fades or Crossfades
You can create clips from track material that over-
laps with fades or crossfades. If the
Preserve
Fades when Editing
option is enabled in the Edit-
ing Preferences page, the fades from the source
clip are adjusted to the new clip.
To separate a clip that overlaps with a fade or
crossfade:
1 With the Selector tool, drag to select the mate-
rial for the new clip.
2 Choose Edit > Separate Clip > At Selection.
Where your selection overlaps any fade-ins or
fade-outs, the fade is trimmed to fit the selection.
Where your selection overlaps a crossfade, the
crossfade is separated into a fade-out and fade-in at
the selection boundary.
