Enter Fades using Mouse and Fade Tool
As you’d perhaps expect, a fade in starts at the beginning, and a fade out occurs at the
end of a Region. The length of fades can be adjusted in the Region Parameter box, but
it’s simpler to use the Fade tool inside the Region where the fade is to take place.
Fades are only visible if you are sufficiently zoomed in to see the waveform in the
Region.
• You can edit existing fade times by using the Fade tool in conjunction with Shift. In
this situation, the curve will not be affected.
• You can delete a fade by using the Fade tool, while holding down Option.
Fade curve shapes (Curve)
• You can adjust the curve shape by using the Fade tool in conjunction with Control.
• You can also use the Curve parameter in the Region Parameter box.
In the example below, Curve has a positive value for both fade in and fade out.
In the example below, Curve has a negative value for fade in, and a zero value for fade
out.
Crossfades
If you select Fade X instead of Fade Out, the selected Region will be crossfaded with the
following Region. The Fade In parameter and corresponding Curve are made redundant
by use of this option.
