Clip Fade-Out does not work

Create the fade after you crop the clip.

Hmm... not sure what's going on there. Does it happen on new projects? Or just old ones?

It could be a problem or bug with X1 opening old projects, but not sure.

your using the smart tool?just grab the top of the clip and drag it in towards the clip.

Same behaviour with all types of fade-out, sound just stops suddenly. Any other ideas?

Wow never heard of that. Did you bounce to clip before applying the fade? Is there an expander/gate in there somewhere?

Could you give us a screenshot?

The wave form does show the gradual attenuation for both stereo and mono clips, however the stereo clip does not fade.
Volume automation fade works fine.

Is this maybe a foreign-language-specific bug? It's happened before.

It looks like the English version to me.

I have not run across this. How short is that fade?

I'm only mildly interested in this. I have never had a problem with fades in Sonar. I hope that this something that is fixable here though.

Peter you have darn good eyes. Good catch. It could be a European version.

Good eyes, indeed :)

I live in Germany, hence I run a German version of Win 7 (since I couldn't get hold of an English one here), but I run the English version of Sonar.

The issue occurs no matter how long or short the fade is. I sent in a problem report this morning. Weird thing.

Have you had a solution to this yet? I have exactly the same problem. I've also filed a report.
 
 
 

I have the same problem.   I found another thread ( http://forum.cakewalk.com/tm.aspx?m=2301149&high=fade+cuts+off ) where he said the CW team fixed his, but no solution is posted.  Mine only affects certain tracks. 

I have a project I recorded this week with just two tracks.  A vocal track and a piano track.  The vocal fades all work fine.  In the piano track however the fades are silent until the end of the fade when the sound abruptly starts (or stops depending on if you are at the start or end of clip). 

I used a midi track output through the TruePiano soft synth, set up as a simple instrument track, and bounced the output to a new audio track to get the piano wave I am using. I tried switching the track to mono, but it still didn't work.  I cloned the track and the new track doesn't work either.  I tried the different fade options and it didn't work.  The clip visually shows the attenuation of the wave like it should but it just doesn't work.  Any help on this yet??? 

As a work around I recorded some volume automation which works but that sure takes a lot longer than just dragging the fades from the edge of a clip. 

  I am running an English version of Windows 7 64bit, Sonar X1b with the latest quick fix from the download site. 

Thank you for the response, I will quit trying to fix it and wait for an update heh. 

That's to do with what you have selected in the track header.

Look for the drop down boxes on each track. Most of them will probably say "Clips", the one on the track you're having problems with will say "Automation". That just sets what's currently editable on that track. Change it back to clips, and you can do what you need to.

If you can't see these boxes, look for another drop down box in the grey bit above the track headers (next to the time display there). Make sure that's set to "All", and you'll be able to find the boxes.
