Proof of Concept
The Merriam-Webster dictionary and Microsoft each define a cross-fade (sometimes written as crossfade) in this way:
"to fade in (a sound or image) in a motion picture or a radio or television program while fading out another sound or image"
In reality, this is an explicitly unnatural way of delivering a music mix. Codentity AI Transaction Technology (AITT) does not rely on the often poorly implemented cross-fades heard in most competing technologies.
Codentity's technology is far superior because it does not have the execution artifacts and various DSP byproduct problems common to the majority of other designs.
In fact, unlike the other guys, there is no file assessment or preparation required by Codentity AI Transition Technology. The Codentity design does not impose crossfades or produce awkward "silence gaps"—but almost all consumer-grade products from the big names do!

See the Google AI mode results obtained from asking this question: What are the key differences between Codentity AI Transition Technology and traditional DSP crossfading?
DSP Transitions in Other Technologies Are Not Enjoyable
Typical automatic mixing solutions from other prominent providers are seriously flawed by premature fade-outs, unwanted fade-ins, extended silence periods (“gaps”), and arbitrary content segment deletions.
Their methods generally use various forms of DSP (digital signal processing.) These DSP processes require CPU overhead and almost always create transition pairings with imprecise song boundaries and undesirable audio levels. Codentity's technology is far superior because it does not have the execution artifacts and various DSP byproduct problems common to the majority of other designs.
This means that only Codentity AI Transition Technology can bring an immediately valuable technical listening improvement experience to licensed entities competing in the vast music distribution and reproduction marketplace.

A Superior Listening Experience Is Possible
The objective of any competent automatic (meaning not executed by a human operator) music transition mixing design is to:
• Reproduce, in its entirety, the creative content segment at expected audio levels, and
• Not reproduce or include any portion of the audio file that does not form an essential or vital part of the creator's intent
This goal is fully achieved by the methods disclosed in the Codentity "Content Durations" patent:
AUTOMATIC CALCULATION OF DIGITAL MEDIA CONTENT DURATIONS OPTIMIZED FOR OVERLAPPING OR ADJOINED TRANSITIONS
(Read the patent: US 9,286,942)
[*Codentity AI Transition Technology (AITT) was formerly branded as Codentity Transition Technology (CTT). The AI designation is used now because it better describes the design and implementation process fully disclosed by the associated patent.]
