Mix Editor

The Mix Editor provides visual crossfade editing between adjacent tracks in the playlist. Fine-tune transitions without leaving the Studio.

Opening the Mix Editor

The Mix Editor works with two consecutive tracks.

1. Select two adjacent tracks in the playlist.
2. Click the Mix icon between them.
3. The Mix Editor tab opens in Panel A.

Both tracks load into the editor with their overlap region visible.

Timeline View

The Mix Editor displays a specialized crossfade timeline.

Components:

• Track A: Outgoing track (top waveform)
• Track B: Incoming track (bottom waveform)
• Overlap Region: Highlighted area where tracks mix
• Crossfade Curve: Visual representation of the volume transition

Adjusting the Overlap

Change when Track B begins relative to Track A ending.

Drag Method

1. Click the start point of Track B.
2. Drag left to increase overlap (earlier start).
3. Drag right to decrease overlap (later start).
4. Release to set.

Numeric Entry

1. Click the overlap duration field.
2. Enter the desired overlap in seconds.
3. Press Enter to apply.

Setting Cue Points

Cue points define exact transition moments.

Point	Description
Mix Out	Where Track A begins fading out
Mix In	Where Track B begins fading in
End	Where Track A stops completely
Start	Where Track B becomes fully audible

Drag cue point markers on the timeline to adjust positions.

Crossfade Curves

Control how volume transitions between tracks.

Available curves:

• Linear: Constant rate of change
• Logarithmic: Fast start, slow finish
• Exponential: Slow start, fast finish
• S-Curve: Smooth acceleration and deceleration

Select the curve type from the dropdown in the editor toolbar.

Preview

Audition the mix before saving.

1. Click Preview to start playback.
2. Playback begins before the transition point.
3. Listen through the crossfade.
4. Click Stop to end preview.

Preview plays through your local monitoring output. It does not affect the live broadcast.

Saving Changes

Apply your mix adjustments.

1. Click Save in the editor toolbar.
2. Changes apply to the playlist queue.

Saved changes affect only this playlist instance. Original track cue points remain unchanged.

1. Click Reset.
2. All adjustments revert to defaults.
3. Save to keep the reset state.

Closing the Editor

1. Click the close button (X) on the Mix Editor tab.
2. If unsaved changes exist, a warning appears.
3. Choose Save, Discard, or Cancel.
