6. Drag the upper set of arrows to set the start and end points for the fade
of the second file.
If you want the fade to end later than you indicated when dragging with the
Crossfade tool, you can numerically change the value in the XFade End Pos
value box. You will not be able to go past the start/end points of the entire
Event.
7. Use the mouse to draw the shape of the fade in and fade out curves.
Drawing in the overlapping area only affects the start segment (the fade out).
If you want to change the overlapping part of the fade curve for the end seg-
ment (the fade in), start dragging to the right of the overlap and keep dragging
to the left.
8. As an alternative to drawing, you can use the buttons on each side of the
curve display to select “preset” linear or logarithmic curve types for the
fade in/fade out curves.
The logarithmic curves will create the most natural fade.
9. Click Calculate.
A preview of the crossfade gets created, which you can see in the box below
the curve display.
● Is is quite possible to introduce clipping (levels higher than the system can
handle) with inappropriate fade curves. If this happens, the program will tell
you the number of Clips detected. Adjust the curves and Calculate again!
10.Check the fade using the Play button.
11.When you have a fade you are happy with, click the OK button.
A new Event appears on top of the two you were fading between. This Event
plays a new file which contains the actual crossfade.
The created crossfade file(s) are placed in a folder on your recording hard disk,
named “Songname_Xfades” (where “Songname” is the name of the current Song).
12.To ensure the three Events retain their timing relationship even after ed-
iting, they are automatically Grouped.
