Shortcut 2000 Editor Owner’s Manual
The Crossfade Duration applies to both crossfades performed. When appending material
to the end of a file, only the head crossfade is performed, so each insertion can have its own
Duration set. If you need independent control of the times of both ends of an insert (or one end
crossfaded and the other not), first perform a normal Insert operation, then place both Edit
Marks at the first splice and do a Crossfade Only Cut with the desired Crossfade duration.
Next (if necessary), set the Crossfade duration for the second splice, set both Edit Marks there
and do another Crossfade Only Cut.

Gain edits in Shortcut are completely non-destructive. Each ten millisecond block of
audio has a Gain Value that can range from +6db to -90db. This Gain Value is applied to the
audio during playback, but does not change the original audio data that was recorded. When a
block is first recorded, its Gain Value is 0db. The level of the recorded audio has no effect on
this, and the actual output level associated with any Gain Value is relative to the recorded level.
All Gain Edits are performed on the selected range of audio between the Edit In and Edit
Out marks, on one or both tracks depending on the state of the A
RM
buttons. The charts below
illustrate Gain Values in a single channel. These charts are for explanation only. The actual
Shortcut display does not show gain values in this format, but gain edits will affect the size of
the displayed waveforms.
There is still the option to adjust the gain both channels of the entire file. This is
accessed in the Editor by pressing M

value with the S

regardless of the state of the A

marks.
The maximum and minimum Gain Values are enforced on each operation, so it is not
possible to increase gain above +6db in any section through repeated operations or the
combined effect of gain edits and the OUTPUT LEVEL parameter in the Edit Menu.
