[Solved] How To Make a Crossfade Megamix?

[amorican]

I want to compile several mp3s into a megamix to burn to CD with a crossfade between each track. How do I this? (Noobie here). I'd love to select all tracks and select a crossfade option before export, but I can't even figure out where the crossfade is... any help appreciated.

Go into the Soundtrax help and search on crossfade. There are several topics on crossfades.

Perhaps I'm missing something, but the references in the manual are either too cryptic or too advanced - it's still not clear to me how to set a crossfade.

I'll take a look and see what I can do for you.

An easy way is to go to Insert\audio file(s), select more than one file for your project and select open. A dialogue box will open and there is a checkbox to specify whether or not to add crossfades. You can set the duration of the crossfade.

There are other ways.

Hi amorican,

If you just want to cross fade the files on the CD, you can do it with Nero Express, This is much faster:

1. Launch Nero Express.
2. Select "Music" -> "Audio CD".
3. Click the "Add" button to add your audio files.
4. Highlight any audio file and click the "Properties" button.
5. Click the "Track Properties" tab.
6. Select the "Cross fade with previous track" box and adjust your settings.
7. Click "OK" or "Apply" to apply your changes.

If you want to cross fade the files and then export them as 1 file (with cross fades included) then you will have to import all the audio files to Soundtrax.

Check the following:
1. Open Soundtrax and select "Insert" -> "Audio File(s)"
2. Now select all the files that you want to import and cross fade.
3. If you select them all and click on "Open", the "Insert playlist" window will open.
4. Here you can check the "Cross fade between clips" option.
5. Finally you can export the files as one file by clicking on "File" -> "Export to audio file".

Hope this info helps!
