CD marker positioning with crossfaded clips, or clips without a gap

Hi …

This is not uncommon in my world. I typically just try my best to get the track marker in the most artistically pleasing space (within client directions of course) and hopefully try and avoid a “click”. I typically mention to the client that some CD players may play this transition with a “click” if the track is auditioned individually.

With the subsequent digital versions, the client is offered the choice to have each cross-faded track stand alone (non crossfaded) for streaming and the now all important playlist.
