Intro to transitions in Final Cut Pro for Mac
You can add cross dissolves and other transition effects between clips to make your program more interesting.
Transitions replace one shot with another over a specified period of time; when one shot ends, another one replaces it. Three very common video transitions are fades, cross dissolves, and wipes.
You can also add audio-only transitions. These transitions can be either a fade-in, a fade-out, or a crossfade. See Fade audio in and out in Final Cut Pro for Mac.
Note: When a transition is added to a video clip with attached audio, a crossfade transition is automatically applied to the audio. If the audio is detached or expanded from the video, the crossfade is not added.
