Adjusting crossfades

When splitting clips as a result of comping, SONAR automatically adds a short crossfade between abutting takes. In order to create a crossfade, clip boundaries must occur at the exact same position on the time line. You can manually adjust the duration of each crossfade by dragging the crossfade up/down in a Take lane.

To adjust a crossfade duration, hold down the CTRL key and position the mouse pointer near the bottom where two clips abut. When the mouse pointer looks like , drag up or down to increase or decrease the crossfade duration.

To specify the default auto crossfade duration

1.	Go to Edit > Preferences > Customization - Editing.

2.	Under Clips, specify the Auto Crossfade Comps (0-25ms) value.
