2.3 Fade Area (Crossfader)
Introduction
MADRIX features a useful Crossfader that sets the source of the final output. In other words, you
can use an effect from Storage Area A or B, a mix of both, or switch seamlessly between them
(fade). The Preview Output will show you the results.
How To Use The Crossfader
The position of the fader decides which of the effects (A or B) is displayed in the Preview Output
window. Set the fader to the far left to show the effect of preview A. Set the fader to the far
right and the effect of preview B will be shown. Any position in between is also possible.
By using the input field "Time" (represented by a clock) you can determine the fade duration.
Enter the time using seconds and tenths of second like this: "2.5" for a fade duration of 2.5
seconds. A click on the "FADE" button starts the fading procedure. If the fader is positioned on
the right side, it will automatically move to the left side. If the fader starts on the left side, it will
move to the right side.
Click "A" or "B" once and the Crossfader will instantly jump to either A or B. In
addition, you can move the Crossfader with the help of your mouse.
Please note: If you use a double-click (with the left mouse button) on the Crossfader slider,
it will be reset to 50%, i.e. to the exact middle position between A and B.
