You don’t need Motion installed to make this work. It will LOOK like it’s on both audio and video in the timeline, but it’s actually only fading the audio. This puts a new transition in your toolkit: an audio-only crossfade.

Do I have a sign on my back that says “Please give me carpal tunnel syndrome?” In FCP 7, you could select your whole timeline, hit command-shift-t, and there you’d have it.įCPX official workflow is to right-click->expand audio/video, then drag the ends of the audio clips each way so that they are overlapping, then drag the fade handles inwards so that the fades overlap. One of my main reasons for avoiding Final Cut X for almost two years was the difficulty of adding audio-only dissolves.
