Cross fade multiple clips?

I've been editing and comping a 15 piece R&B project, doing lots with the drum tracks. Would love to be able to apply cross fades to overlapping clips on multiple tracks, but the feature only shows up with a single clip selected. Is it possible, or a future update? I'm using the new updated version BTW. Thanks to the team for building in the new feature where virtual tracks from .prj files fan out, a huge help!

Why don't I have a clue what this means? :o

I track on a Mackie SDR....on T2.0.1.13, when I import tracks from the SDR where there were several virtual tracks recorded on a single channel, ie: multiple vocal passes for comping, all the virtual tracks were stacked on top of each other on the edit page in Tracktion. I had to create new tracks and drag them apart in order to see them seperately. Now they're all spread out when I tell Tracktion to import the .prj (project) file from the SDR. It saves me 15-20 minutes per song, a big help.

Ah, a Mackie SDR. That explains why I had no idea what it meant. <laff>

Cool beans.

As for the feature request, I support it. It's not like having multiple clips selected would screw everything up, however, it WOULD have to 'always' cross-fade all clips the same way (ie. only beginning, only end, or only both ends [when available]).

I'd have no problem with all crossfades having the same curves. Generally, if I'm copying & pasting sections of a drum mix, sometimes it's just a matter of eliminating the click that occurs from things not lining up at a zero crossing, and I'm using the smallest amount of overlap that will allow a crossfade to occur.

Editing fades on multiple clips at the same time is not possible yet, but it sure could be handy. Like on drums or other files that should be the same lenght etc. :)
