Like you, I edit at the null point and never use a fade to cover a sloppy edit—with DP there is no need once you learn how. As you point out, it’s easy.Phil O wrote:I tend to agree with this. There are only rare occasions when I use crossfades in DP. For punch-ins, copy/paste operations, basic slicing and dicing, etc. I zoom way in and carefully adjust seams to line up with a zero crossing. It's usually an easy point to find and it always sounds good. For long crossfades (say 500ms or longer) I use MLC's technique. I just find it easier to get it exactly as I want.

Cross fades are always special effects for me. For that reason, I prefer two tracks as it lets me have independent control of both sides. I rarely want an even cross fade which is what you get with a single track.
