Crossfade

Final Cut Pro Glossary

When two pieces of audio overlap, one lowering while the other raises in volume, it is known as a crossfade. Similar to the Cross Dissolve transition which visually fades the end of one clip into the beginning of the next, the crossfade blends the audio of two clips. To create a crossfade in Final Cut Pro, select the clips, click Modify-Audio Fades-Crossfade or use the shortcut Option-T.
