Audio mix points
With the Pen tool, I was unable to apply mix points to my audio tracks. The tool turns into a four-headed-arrow (straight up and down, straight across) when I put it on the audio track (which is unlocked, activated).
When I double-click the audio track goes into the Viewer, where I can put mix points in. But although they affect the audio in the Timeline, I don’t see them there — and when I try to fade out audio entirely, it doesn’t actually fade to silence despite being at -INF in the Viewer.
Audio was from an .aif file.

The first thing to always try is to Quit FCP, Restart the Mac, Open your FCP project and try again.
Next:
THE FOLLOWING COMES FROM THE KEN STONE WEBSITE:
“Over 5,000 years ago Confucius wrote: ‘If you are toiling away, you have changed nothing and FCP heads South on you, [starts behaving in strange ways] then it is time to trash your FCP Preferences.’ ”Click the following link for instructions.
https://www.kenstone.net/fcp_homepage/trashing_fcp_prefs.html
A great way to do this is to use “FCP Rescue” a free Apple Script that will Trash the Preferences for you (and restore nearly all of your user settings afterward).
There are versions for FCPro & FCExpress.Download these free Apple Scripts at

This is one FCP tip that has helped in hundreds of “odd” problems.
