Fade In Shape Settings
The In Shape setting allows you to choose the
shape of the fade-in to region 2.
Standard Selects a single continuous fade curve.
This creates a general-purpose fade that can be
edited by dragging the curve itself.
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
crossfade 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 crossfade 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 region 2 at full volume
immediately at the beginning of the crossfade
and keeps it there throughout the crossfade.
◆ Preset Curve 2 fades in region 2 quickly in the
beginning, reaching full amplitude fairly early
in the crossfade.
◆ Preset Curve 3 fades in region 2 moderately
fast.
◆ Preset Curve 4 fades in region 2 with a linear
fade curve. This is the default curve.
◆ Preset Curve 5 fades in region 2 slowly at the
beginning of the crossfade.
◆ Preset Curve 6 fades in region 2 even more
slowly than the previous curve.
◆ Preset Curve 7 silences region 2 until the end
of the crossfade.
