Before we go any further, I already know what you’re about to ask. You want to ask if there is a way to create the audio cross fade without having to apply a video transition. And the short answer is unfortunately, no. So, you’ll have to do one of ___ things: create the audio cross fades manually or detach the audio and create an audio-only connected storyline. Let’s look at the second option first.

Connected STORYLINE Cross Fades:
Now select the clips you want to create the cross fade for, then right-click and choose > Detach Audio. The keyboard shortcut is: _______ _____ _
SHIFT CONTROL S
Now select the clips you want to create the cross fade for, then right-click and choose > Detach Audio. The keyboard shortcut is Shift Control S. The audio is detached as indicated by the green audio waveforms. Select the edit point and press _______ _ to create an audio cross fade.
COMMAND T
Now select the clips you want to create the cross fade for, then right-click and choose > Detach Audio. (SHIFT CONTROL S). The audio is detached as indicated by the green audio waveforms. Select the edit point and press Command-T to create an audio cross fade. Final Cut Pro automatically places both connected audio clips into a __________ _________ then adds the transition in one fell swoop. You can easily change the cross fade duration by dragging on the transition or selecting it, pressing Control-D and entering a precise duration value in the Dashboard. This is not the worst option, however, it does require you to detach your audio which can potentially cause your clips to go out of sync if you are not paying close attention. This is why I prefer the next method because it does not require you to detach your audio.
Secondary Storyline
