Crossfade for Android and Deezer Desktop App

Can we have a definitive date on this please? I don't want to hear soon or we are developing it just give us android users what we want like you did with iOS? Clearly you prefer iOS users over android?

I think that crossfade function in Deezer should have time transition option with a milisecond or shorter than it to have a better musical experience. What do you think about it? If you agree to share this idea on Deezer forums.

Hi there @Lucas Homero

It seems like an interesting suggestion. Please check our ideas forum and feel free to start your own topic 😉

Oh, i love the cross-fader in the bètaversion. I've noticed that 12 secs is just right for me. It gives me a buzz if 2 tracks with the same BPM exactly blend in eachother!
I really hope this will become a standard feature re!

Hi there @Oliver Reehuis

Thanks for the feedback, that's why you're a beta champ! 😉

As this is the thread about Crossfade with the most views, I'm posting my comments here.

1) The method mentioned in this thread for the web player as the Best Answer does not work anymore, the new design does not offer the fader option in the Deezer Labs tab anymore, so you cannot choose an overlap time for blending the tracks into each other.

2) The explanation for Crossfade on the support site is completely wrong. It does not create an artificial pause between connected tracks, but should do the opposite. I already wrote a feedback to that article, but thought I should also mention it here, because there may be misunderstandings about that feature and gapless playback (which would eliminate such artificial pauses created by Deezer apps). If developers also think Crossfade worked that way, they probably assume the problem has already been solved which it has not, as we all know.

Hey @bluezzbastardzz

Thanks for the detailed feedback, as usual. We're currently working on a report about Gapless to our Product Managers so that they know in detail what our community has said about this so far.
I'll feedback to our team about the article. And you're right, the option isn't available in the web version as it was before. I'll come here with a 'best answer' once I get an update.

You are right about the first section. By the way it never was part of the Deezer lab section on the web version. An HTML5 checkbox under Settings but both the settings option and the HTML5 option are not available anymore. This is the time to say, it's better to add it back. It was there already. No reason to take away features.

Thx for the heads-up. I'll update the tip I added back then so it won't misleading users.

I switched from spotify to deezer awhile because i like deezers sound quality and song selection...but spotify haf one option i miss. The crossfade option to blend songs together instead of just going from track to track...its a great option from playing music at a party...u could also set the blend time from 1 to 12 seconds...just sayin...thanks!!!

Hi @redddawg23

what device are you using? I believe it's already available on iOS, or if you're on beta sign up to the Android Beta programme which also has it. (it's hopefully coming to Desktop in the future!) 🙂
