Edit

Fade In/Fade Out

Allows you to switch between the fade in and the fade out settings.

Zoom

Zoom to Fade Range

Adjusts the view to display the fade in/fade out part of the active clip.

Shape

Curve

Allows you to select preset fade curves.

  • Linear changes the level linearly.

  • Sinus (*) changes the level according to a sine curve. When used in a crossfade, the loudness (RMS) remains constant during the transition.

  • Square-Root (*) changes the level according to a square-root curve. When used in a crossfade, the loudness (RMS) remains constant during the transition.

  • Sinusoid changes the level according to a sine curve.

  • Logarithmic changes the level according to a logarithmic curve.

  • Exponential changes the level according to an exponential curve.

  • Exponential+ changes the level according to a more pronounced exponential curve.

Time

Fade Time

Allows you to specify a fade in/fade out time for the clip.

Apply Fade Time

Applies the specified clip fade in/fade out time.

Options

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.

Create Default Fades in New Clips

If this option 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.
