Android: How to create fade-in/fade-out sound effects for any music file that my app plays?

This is my entire handler class for Android MediaPlayer. Look at the play() and pause() functions. Both contain the ability to either fade or not. The updateVolume() function was the key to let the sound increase/decrease linearly.

public class MusicHandler {
    private MediaPlayer mediaPlayer;
    private Context context;
    private int iVolume;

    private final static int INT_VOLUME_MAX = 100;
    private final static int INT_VOLUME_MIN = 0;
    private final static float FLOAT_VOLUME_MAX = 1;
    private final static float FLOAT_VOLUME_MIN = 0;

    public MusicHandler(Context context) {
        this.context = context;
    }

    public void load(String path, boolean looping) {
        mediaPlayer = MediaPlayer.create(context, Uri.fromFile(new File(path)));
        mediaPlayer.setLooping(looping);
    }

    public void load(int address, boolean looping) {
        mediaPlayer = MediaPlayer.create(context, address);
        mediaPlayer.setLooping(looping);
    }

    public void play(int fadeDuration) {
        // Set current volume, depending on fade or not
        if (fadeDuration > 0)
            iVolume = INT_VOLUME_MIN;
        else
            iVolume = INT_VOLUME_MAX;

        updateVolume(0);

        // Play music
        if (!mediaPlayer.isPlaying())
            mediaPlayer.start();

        // Start increasing volume in increments
        if (fadeDuration > 0) {

            // calculate delay, cannot be zero, set to 1 if zero
            int delay = fadeDuration / INT_VOLUME_MAX;
            if (delay == 0)
                delay = 1;

            timer.schedule(timerTask, delay, delay);
