Fade in
A fade in gradually increases the level of a sound from silence.
Level relevance: introduced at Nat 3; tagged for every later level where the same concept remains useful.
Explanation
A fade in is often used to introduce audio smoothly and avoid sudden starts or clicks. It can also be used creatively to build atmosphere or make an entry feel less abrupt. In editing, even a very short fade in can improve the cleanliness of a clip boundary.
