Fades specify the gradual increase or decrease in gain over time. In the Waveform Editor, fades are non-destructive. They can be created and adjusted as desired and are only committed when the audio content is saved or exported. When the audio content is played, the fades will be previewed.
Fades can either be a Fade In where the audio content gradually gets louder over time, or a Fade Out where the audio content gradually gets softer over time.
Fade curves

- Logarithmic 1
