Crossfades
Crossfades allow you to create smooth transitions for consecutive audio events on the same
track. Crossfades are always event-based.
You can only create crossfades if the consecutive events or their respective clips overlap.
If the audio events overlap, a crossfade of the default shape (linear, symmetric) is applied in
the overlapping area.
NOTE
You can edit the default crossfade length and shape in the Crossfade editor.
If the respective audio clips overlap, the two events are resized so that they overlap, and a
crossfade of the default length and shape is applied in the overlapping area.
If neither the audio events nor the clips overlap, a crossfade cannot be created.
