Audio transitions
Work with audio transitions
You can apply crossfades for audio transitions between clips. An audio fade is analogous to a video transition. For
a crossfade, you add an audio transition between two adjacent audio clips on the same track. Adobe Premiere Pro
includes two types of crossfade: Constant Gain and Constant Power.
The Constant Gain crossfade changes audio at a constant rate in and out as it transitions between clips. This
crossfade can sometimes sound abrupt.
The Constant Power crossfade creates a smooth, gradual transition, analogous to the dissolve transition between
video clips. This crossfade decreases audio for the first clip slowly at first and then quickly toward the end of the
transition. For the second clip, this crossfade increases audio quickly at first and then more slowly toward the end
of the transition.
To set a default duration for the audio transitions, choose Edit > Preferences
> General (Windows) or Premiere
Pro
> Preferences
> General (Mac OS). In the Preferences dialog box, enter a value for the Audio Transition Default
Duration.
