Cross-Fades
If a fade is placed on a clip and there is another clip layered underneath, a cross-fade between the two
will automatically be “induced”. Cross-fade parameters can be modified with the soft key menu
functions.
Induced crossfades are complementary – that is to say, the clip underneath is faded with exactly the
opposite shape to the clip on top.
If the clip underneath already has its own fade, overlapping the time of the upper clip’s crossfade, then
no induced fade occurs. In the following illustration, clip layering has been turned on (double press the
takes
button or View
Display Layering).
