Crossfade setting "Fade In Delay"?

(1/2) > >>

nieroster:
I was playing with the crossfade feature and stumbled over two settings:

Fade In Delay
Fade Out Delay

I went to the manual pages and looked what this could be, but there is no explanation either. It just states:

>>The “fade in delay” is the length of time between when the crossfade process begins and when the new track begins to fade in.

Mmmm:

Thanks!

If I understood correctly then it is as follows:


--------------
                      -
        Song A        -
                            -
                               --------------------------------
                   
                                          ---------------------------
                                     -
                                -          Song B
                           -
-----------------

Where:
1 is Fade Out Delay
2 is Fade Out Duration
3 is Fade In delay
4 is Fade In Duration

The effect would be the same if you set Fade Out Delay (1) to Zero and Fade In Delay to what above is Fade In delay(3) - Fade Out Delay(1)

Mmmm:
Sounds right to me! :)

Yes. But the situation can not alwys be 'normalized' to fade_out_delay=0 since you can have fade_out_delay > fade_in_delay. But the crossfade settings can be converted to a 'canonical' form. By 'canonical' I mean:

        min(fade_out_delay, fade_in_delay) = 0

A picture in the manual would really help to understand the settings.
