Crossfading is a technique that creates a smooth transition from one sound to another. This sound effect works like a fader but in opposite directions, meaning the first source can fade out while the second fades in, and everything blends together.

Intro to Crossfades

It is often used in audio engineering to fill in the silence between two tracks or even mix multiple sounds in the same song to create smooth changes rather than abrupt ones.

DJs often use the crossfading effect between tracks to enhance their musical performance and to ensure that there are no sudden silent gaps that could annoy the audience or the people on the dance floor.

Crossfading is sometimes spelled cross-fading and is referred to as gapless playback or overlapping tracks.
