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.

Dan

  I emailed the list asking about cross fades and I got 2 suggestions. 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.
