I don't have it installed anymore because I use a mac but I believe
"Cool edit" now Adobe Audition has a "Favorites" tag to choose from on
the menu bar. What you do is highlight the amount of wave you want to
fade in (or out) and click on the appropriate tag (be it "fade in or
"Fade out")
I wish I could show you in person, Bill. Maybe someone can take a
screen shot?
