Hi Neville, For the crossfade to work the selected region must contain two audio clips, the one you're crossing from and the one you're crossing to. What's important is that the start and end times of the selection must be over points when both clips are playing. If the first clip runs out before the selection ends, or the second begins after it starts, then sonar can't compute the envelopes properly. The thing to do is carefully cut away the unneeded audio and line up the from and through times to the points where you made the cuts. If the crossfade is two slow then select a smaller region. This depends on you're tempo and how many clicks per quarter note you have. At a tempo of 100 bpm and 960 cpqn 30 clicks should do it. Hope this helps.

The second one seamed less complicated so I tried it. When I press Ault P and go to the cross fade dialog and choose linear, sometimes jaws says the audio you have selected does not over lap. I was wondering what that meant. When it does work, the cross fade isn't fast enough and I can still hear a click where the cross fade should be.
