Crossfade

RealOne Player Plus lets you fade one audio clip into another just like a DJ would at a radio station or club. You can set the volume to fade in as a track starts, and fade out as it ends. You can also overlap your tracks so that the next clip will start even as the previous clip fades out.

* Tip: for the best effect the fade in and fade out time should be set to the same number of seconds.

Close "Crossfade" by clicking on "Close." Your settings are retained until you change them again.
