The Sample Edit Window
Fade In: You use Functions > Fade In to create a fade in.
You set up the period of time over which the fade-in will
occur with the help of the currently selected audio (as
shown in 1 and 2). Volume is set to zero at the left start
point of the selection, and the fade-in occurs over the
length of the selection.

ter
Fade Out: Functions > Fade Out works in the same way
as Fade In, except that the fade works in the opposite di-
rection. This lets you fade passages out automatically.

Fading Tips: 1: Common fades (like the typical fade-out at
the end of a track) can also be achieved with the help
of the mixer faders or using Hyper Draw. The advan-
tage of using MIDI volume to achieve the fade is that
your audio doesn’t need to be edited in any way.
2: If you use the Silence function (see below) to remove
unwanted background noise from silent passages,
small jumps in volume can sometimes appear at the
start and end points of selections, as well as on the
flanks of the audio signal. In this case, select only a
small area (e.g. within and just in front of the flank of
the signal) and then use the “Fade-in” function.
Silence: You use Functions > Silence to remove all data
from a selected area. The waveform material contained in
the selected audio passage and the corresponding ampli-
tude values are all set to zero. You can use this function to
silence the unwanted background noise in quiet passages.
