Decreasing the fade size will narrow the region where both layers are

To Randomly Cross-Switch Between Four Layers:
In certain situations, you may want to switch between several layers
randomly. Crossfade Random is a modulation source specifically designed
to handle this situation. Unlike the other random sources, Crossfade
Random generates one random number for all layers each time a key is
pressed.
To set up a four layer Cross-Switch, simply assign each of the four layers to
a different Real-time Crossfade range, then assign XfdRnd to RTXfade in
the PatchCords for each layer.
