Create automatic crossfades

Logic Pro can automatically create crossfades on overlapping audio regions on a track to
smoothly segue between adjacent (or overlapping) audio regions.

Turn on automatic crossfades

Choose the X-Fade setting from the Drag pop-up menu in the Tracks area menu bar. (See

Control

positioning with drag modes

on page 284.)

You can also create crossfades manually—as well as fade-ins and fade-outs—using the Fade tool,
the Fade parameters in the Region inspector, or the shortcut menu of an existing fade area. For
information, see

Create fades

and

Edit fades

You can simultaneously adjust the fade parameters for all selected audio regions.

Note: The Fade parameters are nondestructive, unlike the fade functions available in the Audio
File Editor, which change the original audio file.

Delete fades

You can delete a fade with a menu command, with the Fade tool, or by modifying the
parameters in the Region inspector.

Delete a fade
Do one of the following:

Control-click an existing fade area, then choose Remove Fade from the shortcut menu.

Option-click an existing fade area with the Fade tool.

Set the Fade In or Fade Out parameter in the Region inspector to 0.
