Fade In / Fade Out

For smoother more professional results in your recording, try fading in to and out of tracks.

  1. Go to Options/Settings/Recorder, and click the Advanced button.

The fade in/out will be recorded into the music (mp3, wav, or Window Media) file, therefore you may want to adjust the fade levels from track to track. Also, make a copy of the original file in case you don't like the results.

  1. In the Fade In field, type in the number of seconds you would like to fade into the track.

  2. In the Fade Out field, enter the number of seconds to fade out of a track.

Fade times are measured in seconds. As an example; if you enter in a fade in time of five seconds, the start of the song will go from no sound to full sound in five seconds. Compensate for songs that start or end quickly.

Track Offset

When recording a track, recording will start where the track data starts, however that is not always where the music starts. Because of this there might be noises like pops, or clicks before the music even starts, or just too much 'dead' time, taking up valuable hard drive space.

To help control this use Track Offset to advance the record start time slightly. Enter in the number of seconds to advance when recording starts.

Since Track Offset is measured in seconds it will affect the length of the recorded track.
