One of the differences between the cross fade in Sound Forge and Studio recorder is that in Sound Forge, the length of the cross fade is determined by how much time is left in the original file. You cut what you want to cross fade to the clipboard and then, if you want to have a minute of cross fade, you back up a minute into the original file and do the cross fade. With Studio Recorder, you simply place the cursor between the two files you want to cross fade and tell it how many seconds of cross fade you want. Guess which is easier? Thanks Rob. But I do have one question. Here he goes again, always asking for more. Is there a reason why there a fewer types of fade types in the settings menu for cross fade than there are for fade? Thanks.
