Why use Aback Video for this
Separate in and out
Set each fade on its own, so a clip can open softly and end on a hard cut, or the other way round.
Black or white
Fade through black for a classic ending, or white for a bright, dreamy feel.
Matching audio fade
The sound ramps in and out over the same time as the picture.
Stays private
Everything runs locally in your browser. Nothing is uploaded.
Frequently asked questions
How long should a fade be?
Half a second to one second feels natural for social clips. Two to three seconds suits the end of a longer video or a slideshow.
Can I fade only the audio?
This tool fades picture and sound together. To change only the sound level, use Change Video Volume.
Can I add a fade between two clips?
Merge the clips first with Merge Videos, then add fades to the start and end here. Crossfades between clips are not part of this tool.
Is my video uploaded?
No. The fades are applied by FFmpeg running in your browser.
Does it reduce quality?
The video is re-encoded to apply the fades. At the default Higher quality the change is not noticeable in normal viewing.
Does it work on mobile?
Yes, in current mobile browsers. Longer clips take longer to encode on a phone.
