3 title: Create Region Fades and Crossfades
8 <dfn>Region fades</dfn> are possible at the beginning and end of all audio
9 regions. In object mode, a grip appears at the top left and top right of an
10 audio region when the cursor hovers over it. Placing the cursor over the top
11 of the grip displays the region fade cursor tip. Click and drag the grip left
12 or right in the timeline to adjust the length of the fade.
15 To activate/deactivate or change the shape of the fade, hover the cursor
16 over the regionfade grip till the cursor tip indicates region fade editing
17 and context-click to bring up a context menu. In the context menu there is a
18 list of options for the regionfade. <kbd class="menu">Activate/Deactivate</kbd> enables
19 and disables the regionfade. The different types of fades are,
20 <kbd class="menu">Linear</kbd>, <kbd class="menu">Slow</kbd>,
21 <kbd class="menu">Fast</kbd>, <kbd class="menu">Symmetric</kbd>, and
22 <kbd class="menu">Constant Power</kbd>.
27 <dfn>Crossfades</dfn> refer to the behavior of a region fade when regions
28 overlap other regions. Crossfades <em>are</em> regionfades. When one region
29 overlaps another and there is a regionfade on the top region the fade-out will
30 be mirrored as a fade-in on the underlying region. The grip for the top region
31 will allow changing the length and type of the crossfade.
