You can fade in the beginning of audio regions, and fade out the end of audio regions (including audio Apple Loops).

Fades are only visible if you are zoomed in enough to see the waveform in the audio region. You can create a fade using either the Fade tool or the Fade In and Fade Out parameters in the Region inspector.

Crossfade pro tools
  1. Select the Fade tool.

  2. Do one of the following:

    • Drag over the start or end point of an audio region.

      A fade-in or fade-out is created. The length of the fade drag area determines the length of the fade, so a longer drag area results in a longer fade time, and a shorter drag area, a quick fade.

    • Drag over the end point of one audio region and the start point of the region that follows.

      This technique works even if the two sections don’t directly adjoin each other.

With the Fade tool selected, you can edit fades on regions after you make them.

  • When the marquee selection encloses exactly one junction between two adjacent regions (starts later than the first region start, ends earlier than the second region end): apply an Equal Power Crossfade from the marquee selection start to the marquee selection end, with the crossfade pivot on the region junction.

  • When the marquee selection encloses a region start, which follows a gap, or if the marquee selection starts on the region start and the marquee selection ends before the region end: apply a Fade In from the region start to the marquee selection end.
