Two songs.. fade one out and the other in?

[sdeese]

I am brand new to PSP. I would like to use two different songs in my slide show. I need to play song A for about 1:30 (about half of it) and then fade it out and fade in song B. Both songs are in .mp3 format.

1. How do I do this?
2. Can PSP still provide the slide timing for the "combined" audio?

Thank you to anyone who ventures to help this newbie out!

In Timeline mode, (TAB key) place the first song on the timeline below your slides. Hover your mouse over the waveform and press and hold the CTRL key. You will see an outline with handles on the ends and corners. You can manipulate those handles to change the volume, change the length, and change the fade in and fade out. If you click anywhere inside of the control area you can move the entire audio file forward and backward.

Once that's adjusted add the 2nd song and do the same thing. Adjusting the songs has no affect on the slide timing.

I know that this is a matter which was addressed nearly a year ago but, hopefully, someone might be able to supply an answer for me.

Does the above also apply to 'cross-fading'? It isn't often, but there are times when I might want to fade a song in - at a point where another song is fading out. I've not had the opportunity to try what I wish to achieve, after reading the above, as I am in bed right now - with the IPad. I have been fading In & out with audio files, without a problem, but it has always been with files that butted up against one another - not with the respective outros & intros slightly overlapping.

Yes Nathan, the above method can be used to overlap the soundtracks and to produce a fade out of the first and a fade in of the second.

Thanks, Brian. That's good to know.
