Audio regions overlap, and crossfades: how does this work?

A lot of people get confused with the use of audio regions in Arrange, especially when considering overlaps, using crossfades, or digital mixdown. Here are a few “Logic” rules that should help clear things up: When two consecutive regions overlap in the Arrange window, regardless of which one is on top visually, the first (time wise) region stops playing where the new one starts. In that case, the length of the first region is irrelevant. If a region completely covers a shorter region (meaning it starts before the shorter region, and ends after the shorter region), then the longer region is played until the shorter starts, and when the shorter region ends the long region resumes playing. In short, every time the SPL runs into a new region it stops playing what it was playing until now and starts playing the new region. When using a crossfade, the boundaries of the regions at the time of the crossfade are irrelevant. Only the crossfade’s position and boundaries are taken into account by
