Song Fade Out
Song Fade Out
Can someone please help. It seems like a very simple query but not one that any YouTube video addresses. I've finished recording the song. All I want to do is fade out the song ending. Not just a track or two but the whole song. I thought I would be able to mix the song to one single master track but can't see how either. Any suggestions please?
Re: Song Fade Out
You can automate the master volume fader, though what I usually do is plonk a Utility on that master channel and fade that.

Re: Song Fade Out
Not having much luck here. Trying again....How do I create a single Master track which I can send my recorded tracks to after mixing. Then I will need to fade out the ending of the song which I'm not sure how to do. Any help available?
Re: Song Fade Out
look to the very right of the Session view / mixer view. that's the master track
go to arrangement view and look at the bottom of the track view, that's also the master track, it is titled "master". All tracks go through this master track to the main outs (unless you re-routed them from the default setting)
In Arrangement view press A
look at the automation lanes. They should be visible.
If the master track is not showing an automation lane with a dropdown labelled for "Volume" , click the little arrow to open automation on Master track when the automation lane is visible, the default automation visible for Master is "Volume".
click on the Volume automation line, make dots. make the furthest right dot be at the bottom
you just made a fade out

Thanks very much. Really appreciate your help and the detailed explanation. Thanks. I will have a look again. I have been recording on a BOSS Digital Studio for years and the switch to a DAW has been very different and a steep learning curve. Thanks again.
