High: The faded-out track starts fading slowly, then picks up speed as time goes on. DJs often use this technique while matching beats of two different songs to produce a continuum of sound, while editors often use crossfades (as well as fade-ins and fade-outs) to make the introductions of different sound components sound less “sudden” and more natural. Crossfading is valuable because it allows these changes to happen quickly without being jarring, without introducing silence, and while sounding smooth and more natural. The same goes for video it’s useful to be able to fade in to a crowd’s cheer, or fade out of an original audio source in favor of narration of some kind. Many songs use fading techniques to great effect when starting or ending, or at particular parts in the song. It usually sounds like you opened the door to another room with different music, then went through it and closed the door behind you. The first track slowly fades out and the second fades in, but instead of there being silence in between, it happens concurrently. This is what a fade-out looks like visually:Ī crossfade is essentially doing both simultaneously to two separate tracks. Sharper fades happen quickly while duller or steadier fades take a long time. ![]() When an audio track starts with silence and the volume rises up out of nowhere, that’s called a “fade-in.” When a track slowly lowers its volume until it’s nothing but silence, it’s called a “fade-out.” How “sharp” a fade is directly involves how much volume is lost or gained over what period of time.
