Creating a Crossfade

Procedure

  1. In the Audio Editor, create as good a loop as you can.
  2. Select the Process tab.
  3. In the Loop section, click Tweaker.
  4. In the Loop Tweaker dialog, decide if you want to create a crossfade or a post-crossfade:

    • If you want to create a crossfade, click the Crossfade tab.

    • If you want to create a post-crossfade, click the Post-Crossfade tab.

  5. Make sure that Crossfade Audio at End of Loop with Audio before Loop (Crossfade tab) or Crossfade Audio after Loop with Audio of Loop Start (Post-Crossfade tab) is activated.
  6. Specify the length for the crossfade either by dragging the length handle or by adjusting the Length value below the graph.
  7. Specify the crossfade shape by dragging the shape handle or by adjusting the Shape (from Equal Gain to Equal Power) value.
  8. Click Apply.

    The sound is processed.

    Note

    Do not move the loop points after you have performed a crossfade. The waveform has been processed specifically for the current loop settings.

After Completing This Task

  • You can check the crossfade visually by opening the Loop Points Adjustment tab and activating Display Processed Audio. If this is activated, the display shows a preview of the crossfaded waveform. If this option is deactivated, the display shows the original waveform. Switching back and forth allows you to compare the two.
