How to fade in/out volume in editor?

We do a lot of multi camera work with kids. We constantly need to turn off their mics (in post) when not in use because they are rubbing them, coughing, etc. We turn it up when they talk and off when they're not talking.
Like this:
Sometimes it's a bit more complicated than this and I want to get a full scren version of just this one track. So I thought double-clicking on it and bringing up the waveform editor (is that what it's called?) would be just the ticket. It's very quick especially with hotkeys 0 and 9 to go back and forth. But I can't se those handles or the volume line anywhere inside as you can see here:
How can I do this in the waveform editor? I know I can do it in the multitrack editor by making the view area of the track bigger by stretching it. But that's a lot of work when you have 6 kids and each one has 200 up/down points per session.
I would like a quick "multi-track view to fullscreen of one track" with one single click or hotkey.
Thanks for your help!

Great, Steve. Sounds good. I don't like doing anything destructive since we work in a multi-person environment. I'm afraid that with so many people touching the projects, it's easy for a mistake to be made.
I like your last idea a lot (razor cuts). Maybe to pick your brain a bit, I would still like to fade these in/out a bit so we don't get the bad background noise (if a mic has it) popping in and out just before/after the person talks.
... Oh, I just tried this. Do you see any probs with doing something like this to fade in/out? This would be very easy for us?
Also, what would you recommend to keep the individual clips from shifting around accidentally? I know you mentioned muting the other clips, which is a great idea. But is there another way to do it with cutting out the non-used sections? I really like that idea better, since you can visually see where a person's audio comes in/out at in Premiere (something that was a bugger there unless you have your waveform expanded very large--but if you do that, you run out of screen real estate for video editing).
Since there are sometimes 6 mics to sync up to a video recording, if one clip gets bumped here or there, we're in trouble since now there's 20 little clips sitting on a track instead of one long one with up/down keyframes. Before it would be easy--just slide the whole long clip over to 00:00;00 and you're good. Now it could get messy.
I know the mutted tracks would be a solution, but since you're an expert at this, is there a way I can keep things locked in place while having clip-blank-clip-blank tracks?
Thanks again for your awesome help!

How to fade in/out single track volume?

I'm new to GarageBand, but shouldn't there be a slider or control for individual tracks? The Help menu doesn't seem to give me info, nor does the Track menu.
I just want to be able to fade tracks in and out - it's called mixing, right? The fade line at the bottom (in purple) controls all the tracks...but isn't there a fade in/out control for single tracks besides setting the level for that track section?
For instance, in the photo, below, the "Acoustic Guiter Rock Picking", highlighted, is where I'd like to fade it in at the beginning and fade out at the end, while having the other tracks stay the same. Advice appreciated, thanks.
I saw in another post that there's a track slider in GB '11, but as I have '08, there seems to be no triangle to click. Any workarounds? Can't imagine why this basic feature wasn't in earlier version, if so.

Looks like the answer was right under my nose. I thought it only applied to later versions of GB, but the track option is in v. 4 (mine) too.
Here's the simple solution:

How to fade in/out multiple images before image faded

Hi all,
I plan to do multiple images fade in/out using UIImageView just like Flicker iphone app.
Here are the steps:
1. Load pic1.
2. pic1 move from left to right.
3. pic1 will slowly turn to become transparent while still moving.
4. Same time pic2 is moving from right to left.
I am managed to have the pic1 slowly fading out after it stop moving and pic2 move in at the same time. However what i want is to have the pic1 slowly fading out while it is still moving.
Can anybody help me to look at my code below: Thanks.
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
CGPoint newLeftCenter = CGPointMake(180, 240);
[UIView beginAnimations:@"move1" context:NULL];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:6.0f];
[UIView setAnimationCurve:UIViewAnimationTransitionFlipFromRight];
[UIView setAnimationBeginsFromCurrentState:YES];
[UIView setAnimationDelegate:self];
[UIView setAnimationDidStopSelector:@selector(movingStop:finished:context:)];
pic1.center = newLeftCenter;
[UIView commitAnimations];
- (void)movingStop:(NSString*)animationID finished:(BOOL)finished context:(void *)context {
if ( [animationID isEqualToString:@"move1"] ) {
CGPoint newLeftCenter = CGPointMake(200, 260);
[UIView setAnimationBeginsFromCurrentState:YES];
[UIView setAnimationCurve:UIViewAnimationTransitionFlipFromLeft];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:3.0];
pic2.alpha = 1.0;
pic2.center = newLeftCenter;
[UIView setAnimationDelegate:self];
[UIView setAnimationDidStopSelector:selector(movingStop:finished:context:)];
[UIView commitAnimations];
}

I'd need to write a test bed to get this right for you, but as a first approximation, I think you'll want to do something like this:
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
// assume pic1 is now visible at its left starting position at full alpha
// and pic2 is at it's starting position to the right, either on or off screen
[UIView beginAnimations:@"move1" context:NULL];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:6.0f];
// --> this isn't an animation curve; just use the default for now:
// [UIView setAnimationCurve:UIViewAnimationTransitionFlipFromRight];
// --> leave this out for now:
// [UIView setAnimationBeginsFromCurrentState:YES];
// --> doesn't look like you need a stop method so leave these out for now:
// [UIView setAnimationDelegate:self];
// [UIView setAnimationDidStopSelector:@selector(movingStop:finished:context:)];
pic1.center = CGPointMake(180, 240);
pic1.alpha = 0.0;
pic2.center = CGPointMake(200, 260);
// I don't think you said whether pic2 is fading in, but if so, add this line as well:
pic2.alpha = 1.0;
[UIView commitAnimations];
Again, the above is only an outline, not working code. If you need more help I might have time to make it work this evening, ok?

How to fade in/out audio to play another audio in iPhone?

My app wants to play some sound when iPod is playing a song.
When the app is to play sound, I want to lower the iPod's volume, and play my sound at a higher volume.
But It seems I can't set different volumes for iPod and my app.
[[MPMusicPlayerController iPodMusicPlayer] setVolume:DEFAULT_VOLUME];
AudioQueueSetParameter(m_AQInfo.mQueue, kAudioQueueParam_Volume, gain);

Seems not a good question

I am using logic pro x and do not know how to fade a track at the end of a song or change the volume in a portion of the track.

I am using Logic Pro X. I do not know how to fade the volume at the end of a song or raise / lower the volume in an area of the track. I also have a loud instand volume blip in a portion of a track that I would like to lower or eliminate.

Completely inappropriate, and they all also not help with volume adjustments. Fades will only apply to Audio Regions in the Tracks area: they will not fade out the complete mix unless you first Bounce it, add that to the Tracks area, apply the Fades with the Fade tool, then Bounce in Place (Again).
Much much better to make use of Track automation to take care of Volume adjustments, and to Fade out the end of the song by applying Track Automation to the Output Channel

How to fade a title in and out?

Hi,
I don't find how to fade a title superposing a clip in and out.
Thanks for all hints
Alooha

Troy,
I understand what your saying.
First of all, what your doing a called a video effect not a transition. A transition is applied between two clips. The only "Swirl" in PP is a transition.
What you are refering to is the alpha key and, in a product like Boris Red, you must set the alpha key "on" in order to make the black "alpha" area transparent.
You must be using some third party plugin or are importing an image where you think the black area is an alpha channel but is not? Because i've only had problems with the black area (alpha channel) when using third party plugins like Boris FX or RED. With Boris, the alpha channel only works with effects not transitions. So if you have a scaled Boris transition between two clips or images overlayed above some background in PP, the background will not show through. If you've imported an image into PP with black areas that you want to be transparent, then you have to apply a key to remove the black or use an image format like ".PNG" - it includes the alpha channel.
If you have a PP titler page or clip and are using just PP effects and transitions, there should be no alpha channel problem no matter how you scale or manipulate the object, even if they are all in the same sequence and on top of each other. The only time you will encounter this problem is when you import a clip or image with black areas, as opposed to an alpha channel, that you want to make transparent.
So... If this a problem using third party effects plugins then i offer my apologise since they don't always function properly with respect to alpha channels. Otherwise, for an experienced editor, you need to read up on alpha channels and keying. :)

How to fade in and fade out buttons ???

Hi guys I am building a website and I need help to fade in/ fade out buttons. Here is an example :
My main goal is that when I roll over the services button, I want the submenu (corporate and weddings) to fade in. Then when I roll over the portfolio button, I want the first submenu (corporate and weddings) to fade out and the second submenu ( clients, corporate, weddings, etc..) to fade in and to stay like this. Finally when I roll over testimonials, the second submenu fades out. And so on for the rest of the buttons.
FYI, i know how to animate the buttons to fade in/out but i dont know how to make them fade out when i roll over the other buttons.. I know this can be done with action script but I have no clue how...
I have attached my fla and swf.

Some things you just have to take the time to unravel and learn. It's not difficult/complex, you just have to avoid letting the code overwhelm you by its appearance... instead of looking at pages, look at one page at a time, line by line... take your time and follow a tutorial.
People make tutorials to help those that need to learn, so there's no reason for anyone here to reinvent those wheels for every person that comes along. If you are looking for someone who'll hand you your solved design, sorry, I'm not that guy.

Automation.
To automate the "master fader" go into the mixer set the output channel's automation button to "read" and it will provide an arrange track for you to pencil in said automation.

How to fade out button as menu fades?

I've searched the forums and manual to no avail.
I created a menu that fades to black before jumping to the loop point. Is it possible to fade out the highlighted button as my menu fades to black and jumps to the loop point? Otherwise, the button remains highlighted on screen as the menu fades to black.
I understand how to fade in a button by using Final Cut or Motion and an overlay file, but this of course wouldn't work when fading out a button since the button remains on screen while the video "button" fades out.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

If you add a transition from the menu to the track, such as a dissolve, it should not carry over the highlights - not sure if the button itself is on the highlights. But lets say you have an arrow next to the text that highlights that should not be seen in the transition portion, but it will be abrupt. Also if there is motion after the loop point you will not know when the button is pressed, if it is effectively a still then the fades are smoother.

How do you black out video w white titles showing audio playing ,than slowly fade to reveal video

How do you black out video w white titles showing audio playing ,than slowly fade to reveal video

From the Transitions browser (far right of iMovie's window, shaped like an hourglass), drag the Fade to Black transition to the gap between the Title and video thumbnail. Alternatively, drag the Cross Dissolve transition - rather than fading to black, the image will gradually transform from the Title to the video.
Double-click the transition to open the Inspector - you can change the duration there if preferred.
John
PS. Re-reading your question, if the video is continuous with a Title inserted, you will need to split the clip at the point where the Title ends, then drag in the transition. To split the clip, right-click (or Control-click) at the split point then select "Split Clip" from the pop-up menu.

How to make movieclip controlled by button fade in/out on mouse over/out?

Hi,
I am new to Flash, and have tried searching numerous forums to the answer to this question, but nothing I try seems to work. Basically I am trying to create a single "Image" that triggers different animations when you mouse over different invisible buttons located on specific areas. The technique I am using is basically spacing out the animations over different frames, and using the gotoAndPlay command specifying the where the relevant animation is located.
Here is the code from my actions layer with two animations:
stop(); /*This ensures no animations are playing on the first frame*/
/*Mouse over event for redbutton1*/
redbutton1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, fl_MouseOverToGoToAndPlayFromFrame_2);
function fl_MouseOverToGoToAndPlayFromFrame_2(event:MouseEvent):void
     gotoAndPlay(2); /*This is the frame where the animaton triggered by redbutton1 is located*/
/* Mouse Out Event for redbutton1*/
redbutton1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, fl_MouseOutHandler_3);
function fl_MouseOutHandler_3(event:MouseEvent):void
     gotoAndPlay(1) /*takes animation back to the start of timeline where it stops*/
/*Mouse over event for bluebutton1*/
bluebutton1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, fl_MouseOverToGoToAndPlayFromFrame_2);
function fl_MouseOverToGoToAndPlayFromFrame_2(event:MouseEvent):void
     gotoAndPlay(30); /*This is the frame where the animaton triggered by bluebutton1 is located*/
/* Mouse Out Event for bluebutton1*/
bluebutton1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, fl_MouseOutHandler_3);
function fl_MouseOutHandler_3(event:MouseEvent):void
     gotoAndPlay(1) /*takes animation back to the start of timeline where it stops*/
Now basically all I need is some code that means that instead of abruptly starting and stopping the animation, the animation will fade in/out whenever the mouseover/out events are triggered. Note: the animation doesn't have to finish, it basically only plays while the mouse is over.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It will help oif you show the code for the code-based tweening. The basics of getting it working with the MOUSE_OVER/OUR commands is fairly straightforward.
You have listeners for both events, and the handlers for each listener is where you activate the tweens. For more seamless functionality it is usually a good idea to have the starting point of the tween be the point where the object currently is (its x or y (or both) propertiy) instead of a fixed value.

Adobe Audition CC 2014 - Fade In/Out to playhead?

Hello all,
My question is this: In a multitrack session (or in waveform editor) I want to be able to tell Audition to fade in/out to the playhead. At present, I can set a shortcut to "Clip--Fade In(Out) Normal". However, when I use said shortcut in a multitrack session Audition makes a fade in/out of a predetermined length (appx 16 sec). If anyone knows how to adjust this please let me know, otherwise let this thread stand as a feature request.
Thanks.

I think you misunderstand the question. I know how to draw a volume envelope. Here's what I want to do:
Right now to use the automatic fades that are present on each clip I have to grab the box and draw it out. Now, as I said before, there are keyboard shortcuts that will activate this without having to draw it out. I have done this by going to the keyboard shortcut editor, finding "Clip--Fade In (or Out) Normal" and assigning Alt-G to it. If I use my assigned shortcut now it makes a fade that seems to be set at random, probably in relation to the overall length of the selected clip (longer clip=longer fade). What I would like it to do is exampled by the pic above, simply give me a fade in/out in relation to where the playhead is on the selected clip. This would be similar if one was in ProTools (with a-z mode) and types "D" (Fade from start) or "G" (Fade to end). If this option isn't available it should be on a future release.
