Fades and Crossfades
Fades are a gradual increase or decrease in volume at the beginning (fade-in) or end (fade-out) of a
clip. A crossfade is when one clip fades out while another fades in. There are two ways to create
fades and crossfades in SONAR: offline (destructive) and real-time (non-destructive). To create
fades and crossfades offline, see “Applying Fades and Crossfades Offline” on page 565.

Using Fades and Crossfades in Real Time
Using Fades and Crossfades in Real Time
You can create real-time fades and crossfades in the Track view’s Clips pane. Real-time fades and
crossfades do not change the data in the clip. SONAR reads the fade-in, fade-out, or crossfade in
the clip and adjusts the gain accordingly. You can edit the crossfade’s start time and end times. You
can set the type of fade-in or fade-out you want to use as a default:
Linear. A straight line, raising or lowering the volume at a steady rate.
Slow Curve. A curved fade which starts to change the volume slowly at first and then rapidly
increasing (fade-in) or decreasing (fade-out) the volume.
Fast Curve. A curved fade which starts to change the volume quickly at first and then rapidly
decreasing (fade-out) or increasing (fade-in) the volume.
