Why crossfade audio clips

No abrupt cuts

A gradual overlap hides the joint between two songs or takes.

Constant loudness

Equal-power fades keep the volume steady through the transition.

Fast and private

Mixing happens in your browser with no uploads and no software to install.

How to crossfade two clips

  1. Add both clipsDrop the first clip into A and the second into B.
  2. Set the overlapChoose the crossfade length and a fade curve. Trim silence so the clips meet cleanly.
  3. Preview and saveListen to the transition, adjust if needed and download the joined WAV.

How crossfading works

During the overlap, clip A fades out while clip B fades in, and the two are added together. The fade curve controls how the volume of each changes. Linear fades are simple but can create a small dip in loudness halfway, because two half-volume signals usually sound quieter than one full one.

Equal-power fades follow sine and cosine curves so the combined energy stays constant, which is why they are the default in most DAWs and DJ software. S-curves start and end gently, and logarithmic fades bring the new clip in quickly. If the overlap gets louder than full scale, the whole result is turned down slightly so it never clips.

Equal power

Best for music and most transitions.

Linear

Good for very similar material, such as two takes of the same part.

S-curve

Smooth starts and ends for ambient beds and loops.

Audio crossfade FAQ

What crossfade length should I use?

For songs, 4 to 8 seconds is typical. For joining speech or similar takes, 50 to 300 milliseconds is often enough.

Can the crossfade be longer than a clip?

No. The overlap is limited to the length of the shorter clip.

What happens with mono and stereo clips?

The result is stereo if either clip is stereo. A mono clip is played equally in both channels.

Why trim silence at the joint?

Many files have silence at the end or start. Trimming it makes the crossfade happen between actual sound instead of quiet gaps.

What format is the download?

A 16-bit WAV file at the original sample rate.
