CROSS-FADER
X-FADER
Fade between audio from CH 1 - 4 assigned to the X (Left), or Y (Right) side of the
cross-fader, typically to fade smoothly into a new music track, to creatively layer sounds,
or for scratch and cut mixing.
The cross-fader is a VCA (voltage controlled amplifier) control that also affects the level
of signals routed via the XONE:VCF
Ensure switches on channels you want to fade are set to X or Y as appropriate.
When the XONE:FX, FX X-FADE switch is set to X or Y, the cross-fader acts as a
VCA, controlling send levels to the internal XONE:FX engine, following the active
FX:ASSIGN (see page19) and X-FADER curve switch settings.
Assigned to X, the VCA send level is X = fully ON / Y = fully OFF.
Assigned to Y, the VCA send level is X = fully OFF / Y = fully ON.
