The Damping parameters adjust the “steepness” of the fade. For example, a -6dB setting for the fade-in will result in a normal fade, where the level is half the original when it reaches the Offset point. Values closer to 0dB will emphasize the beginning of the fade-in wave. Values closer to -18dB will make the fade-in sound drop drastically at the beginning of the fade. Here, the default -6dB Damping curves with 50% Offsets are selected. This gives you a normal crossfade with the focus on the middle of the fade. In this example, the Offsets have been moved so that the focus of the fade is more to the left. This means the fade-out is faster than the fade-in. However, both Damping factors are still set to the standard -6dB. Mix without fading If you activate “Mix without fading” for either section, it will play at full level throughout the entire fade. An example Let’s say you have two environmental sound effects you want to fade between, “city” and “restaurant”. You want to fade from “city” to “restaurant”. The two sounds are in different windows. 1. Select the entire “restaurant” wave and copy it. 2. Make a selection in the “city” wave, from a point close to the end. The length of this selection is equal to the length of the fade. 3. Open the crossfade dialog, set both Offsets to 50%, both Damping settings to -6dB, deactivate both “Mix without fading” options and click the Paste button. The “city” wave is now lengthened, so that it starts as it originally did, then fades over to the beginning of the “restaurant” wave and ends like the “restaurant” wave.
