Fade Options
Using fade-in/out smoothing
If either or both of these items are ticked on the envelope speed menu,
the resulting corresponding fade curve angles will be rounded instead of
angular. This produces smoother, more natural fade curves. It can be
used while drawing the fade curve, or applied to an existing curve.
Fade-in/out presets
It is possible to create fade presets which you can recall and apply at will.
This is done in the same way as with volume envelopes (see “Creating
envelope presets” on page 452).
Fade-in/out edit-lock
If either or both of these items are ticked on the envelope speed menu,
the corresponding fade points are hidden and cannot be edited.
Editing the fades of all selected clips
If you press [Alt] and change a fade-in or fade-out point, this will affect all
selected clips simultaneously.
Default fade-in/out
The factory default fade-in/out curve shape is linear. You can change this
setting and define a default shape and/or length separately for both fade-
ins and fade-outs. To define a new default fade-in, follow the steps below.
To define a new default fade-out use the same method described below
but select “Default Fade-out” on the envelope speed menu:
Note that the default fades are saved for each Montage. If you want to use
the same default fade for several Montages, you should update the Mon-
tage template file (see “Saving a Montage template” on page 499).
1. Open the envelope speed menu for the clip that contains the fade-in
shape and/or length you want to use as default.
2. Select “Default Fade-in” on the menu.
A submenu opens.
3. Select “Define current shape as default” on the submenu.
Now every new fade-in will have the defined default shape.
4. If you also want to define a default length, use the same procedure but
select “Define current fade-in time as default” from the submenu.
You have now defined both a new default shape and length.
