The ES41 Audio XFade is an equal-power cross fader unit optimised for use with AUDIO signals. The module has two AUDIO signal inputs, as one signal increases in level at the output under manual or voltage control, the other signal decreases in level at the output. This effect is used to accurately fade one sound in while fading another out.

Cross-fading with voltage control permits a smooth transformation between two different timbres. If, for example, a sound and its reverberated image are sent through the cross-fader, the reverb mix, can be voltage controlled.

This effect can be used to modify the spatial characteristics of a sound event, from immediate presence to distant ambience.

In addition to the cross-fade function a VCA controls the output amplitude.
