# Mixes two streams, with faded transitions between the state when only the
# normal stream is available and when the special stream gets added on top of
# it.
# @category Source / Track Processing
# @param ~delay   Delay before starting the special source.
# @param ~p       Portion of amplitude of the normal source in the mix.
# @param ~normal  The normal source, which could be called the carrier too.
# @param ~special The special source.
