Setting an event’s fade in and out
The event handles allow you to change an audio event’s fade in and out volume. You can also change the type of curve that the event uses to control the volume’s fade in or out.
1.Place the mouse pointer on a handle (upper corners of the event). The pointer changes to the envelope cursor (
).
2.Click the corner of the event and drag to create a fade.
To remove a fade, drag the end of the fade curve back to the edge of the event.
Changing an event’s fade curve
You can set the shape of the fade curve (fast, linear, slow, sharp, or smooth) that an event uses to raise or lower the volume over time. To access the different fade curves,
Fast
Linear
Slow
Smooth
Sharp
Tip: If you use the same fade curve frequently, you can set it as a default for all new audio event envelopes. For more information, see Editing tab on page 349.
