Options for Moving and Crossfading Clips

There are several options that help you when moving and crossfading clips.

Ripple

The ripple options are available in the Edit tab of the Audio Montage window.

Track

If this option is activated and you move a clip horizontally, all clips on the selected track that are located to the right of the edited clip are also moved. This option also applies when moving or resizing clips, and when inserting or pasting more than one clip at the same time.

Global

If this option is activated and you move a clip horizontally, all clips on all tracks that are located to the right of the edited clip are also moved. This option is taken into account when moving or resizing clips, and when inserting or pasting more than one clip at the same time.

Crossfading

The following crossfading options are available in the Fade tab of the Audio Montage window in the Options section.

Overlaps

This pop-up menu allows you to set the automatic crossfading behavior.

  • If No Automatic Crossfading is activated, no automatic crossfading is performed when clips overlap.

  • If Free Overlaps is activated, automatic crossfades are created when a clip overlaps another clip on the same track. The length of the overlap determines the length of the crossfade.

Options
  • If Create Default Fades in New Clips is activated, all new clips get the default fade in and fade out shape and length. For clips that are created by splitting a clip, only the default fade time is used.
