Which of the following is a valid way to modify crossfades?

• A. Changing track color
• B. Custom in fade shapes
• C. Increasing tempo
• D. Move clips without crossing fades

Answer: (B)

Crossfades blend two overlapping clips by shaping how the volume ramps from one to the other. The way this blend sounds comes from the fade curve, so using a custom in fade shape lets you sculpt the exact ramp for the incoming clip, giving you precise control over how smoothly or aggressively the transition occurs. This is the method that actually changes how the crossfade behaves. Changing track color is just a visual cue, increasing tempo doesn’t affect the fade physics, and moving clips without crossing fades leaves the existing crossfade unchanged.
