About this tool
Create a smooth audio fade-in directly in your browser
A fade-in starts an audio file at silence or a very low level and gradually raises it to normal volume. It helps avoid abrupt starts and can make music, podcasts and spoken recordings sound more polished.
You can control the length of the transition to create either a quick entrance or a slower, more atmospheric beginning.
AudioDock applies the effect locally, keeping the recording on your device.
