One of my clients who does museum systems was asking me if I knew a way in Audia and Nexia to automatically crossfade from background music to program music. He wants to send one command from his show controller, and have the Audia or Nexia perform the crossfade. Further, he wanted to be able to select at least three crossfade times, e.g. a rapid crossfade for program-start, and a slower crossfade to resume background music after the show.
There's not a specific object named Crossfader, but I started playing with an object called Level Inc/Dec, in the Controls tool group. This object takes logic inputs for incrementing and decrementing the level of whatever is passing through it. I was able to get this object to do exactly what I want. Then attached PDF takes you through my discovery and the refinements I made to fine tune the "circuit" to my client's needs.
I know I'm not the first person to do crossfading using Nexia and Audia. Does anybody else have further insight to share on this function?
