"Next, I'll talk to you about different create fades and crossfades. When you are working those projects, and your Smart Tool's open, you can easily just add a fade anywhere, anywhere on these audio files pretty easily. Now, once you have the fades on there, it's a little bit more difficult to remove them. We got to do is go to Edit, make sure to highlight it, and go to Fades, and delete the fade. You could also create fades within your track just by highlighting the area that you want to, just making sure that you start with non-audio and end up on-audio, and just go to Edit and create a fade. It brings up a couple different options as far as Equal Power and Equal Gain, and different types of curves. You can change the actual, from the Standard Curve, to an S-Curve, or any type of custom curve you might choose. You can also choose create your own, things like that. These are very helpful as far as, like, removing sound and getting good signal to noise ratio within your mixes."
