I think you can edit the clips them selves to fad, it would be a static though.ImageImage

Well if you 1) assign the two audio channels to different sides of the crossfader and 2) assign a midi controller to the crossfader, then you can just hit record and move the crossfader. Works like it does from clip view.

Or you can draw the crossfader controller like the man said.

Our you could route both tracks to a send and bump a knob on a midi controller to fade freely when ever. Just like what he said :D

Take a look at my guide "Mixing in arrangement view" at www.vinkalmann.com. It covers automation (in your case you would want to automate volume).

Only using the 2 tracks cross fader A>B workaround at present, hopefully it will be something they include in an upcoming release as it can be done on one track in Cubase, Logic, Protools, ACID/Vegas, DP, Samplitude and mostly every other DAW around.
