Change the fade type
m In the Region inspector, choose a fade type from the Fade Out pop-up menu.
•
Out: Creates a standard fade-out whenever the Fade tool or Fade parameter is used.
•
X (Crossfade): Crossfades the selected region with the following region when you use the Fade
tool or Fade parameter.
•
EqP (Equal Power Crossfade): Results in an Equal Power crossfade. This minimizes volume dips
between audio regions, resulting in a more even crossfade between regions that may be
slightly different in level.
•
X S (S-Curved Crossfade): Delivers an S-curved crossfade. The fade curve, as the name suggests,
is S shaped.
The last three items in the pop-up menu can only be applied to two consecutive regions. Also
note that the Fade In (and corresponding Curve) parameters are made redundant when any of
the X, EqP, or X S options are chosen.
Change the playback speed of a fade
Do one of the following:
m For a fade in, choose the Speed Up parameter, and modify the value.
m For a fade out, choose the Slow Down parameter, and modify the value.
Logic Pro offers Speed Up and Slow Down parameters in the Region inspector, which you can
use to speed up or slow down the playback speed of fades. These parameters share pop-up
menus with the Fade In and Fade parameters.
