About the volume handle
A selected audio event also has a square handle in the top middle: the volume
handle. It provides a quick way of changing the volume of an event in the Project
window. Note that dragging the volume handle also changes the value on the info
line.
The volume change is displayed numerically on the info line.
The event waveform reflects the volume change.
• Drag the Volume handle up or down to change the volume of the event.
Removing fades
• To remove the fades for an event, select the event and select “Remove Fades”
from the Audio menu.
• If you want to remove the fades in a specific range only, select the fade area
with the Range Selection tool and select “Remove Fades” from the Audio
menu.
Clip-based fades
If you have selected an audio event or a section of an audio event (using the Range
Selection tool), you can apply a fade in or fade out to the selection by using the
“Fade In” or “Fade Out” function on the Process submenu of the Audio menu. These
functions open the corresponding Fade dialog, allowing you to specify a fade curve.
Fades created this way are applied to the audio clip rather than to the event.

IMPORTANT
The length of the fade area is determined by your selection. In other words, you
specify the length of the fade before you open the Fade dialog. You can select
multiple events and apply the same processing to all of them simultaneously.
• If you later create new events that refer to the same clip, these will have the
same fades.
If other events refer to the same audio clip, you will be asked whether you want the
processing to be applied to these events or not.
• Continue will apply the processing to all events that refer to the audio clip.
• New Version will create a separate, new version of the audio clip for the
selected event.
