    Hi Virgilio,
    That is not Bezier. Is just the logarithmic nature of Audio.

    Hi Virgilio

    Sorry, FCP does not allow you to change this … for now it remains a feature request.

    Unfortunately, FCP is not including that option. With all the great features this software has – that missing bit is a real shame and always forces me to ad several keyframes and create the linear feel by myself. Or if it as to be really precies, I jump to Soundtrack or Ableton Live and do it there.
    Really hope, that Apple changes that in the future.

    Actually you may be missing the point here Sascha. Audio is logarithmic by nature and FCP simply displays it’s audio controls accordingly … a simple switch to allow one to control the fades linearly is a purely graphical change, it doesn’t affect how the audio itself is handled. If you attempt to override FCP’s handling of the audio and manually shape a linear fade you’re going to end up with an audibly non-linear fade.

    I know, what you mean, but the way, FCp is handling it in a very different way, than fades applied in Audio Apps, like Ableton, ProTools and so on. The curvy line in between two keyframes in FCP does sound very different than a strictly linear line between two Keyframes in Ableton/ProTools. For me to handle this kind of Audio situations is very poor in FCP. I did a lot of test on this, cause I wasn’t sure at first if it’s my imagination, but the difference is quiet big.
