Layer background music and sound effects to finish your audio.
Music and sound effects are the final layer that makes content feel finished rather than raw. A background track sets the emotional tone before a single word is spoken, and a well-placed effect makes a moment land. Both are generated right inside the same canvas as everything else.
Mood first, accents second
Start with the music, because it decides how the whole piece feels - calm, energetic, tense, playful. Then add sound effects as accents to punctuate specific beats: a click, a whoosh, an impact. The two work together, but the music is the bed and the effects are the highlights on top.
- 1Generate a background music track that fits the mood.
- 2Add sound effects for specific moments in your clip.
- 3Balance the music, effects and voice so nothing overpowers.
Keep background music quieter than your voiceover so the narration always stays clear. If a viewer has to strain to hear the words, the mix is too loud.
With image, video, voice, music and effects all in one place, you can carry a single character all the way from a still to a fully scored clip. The next track shows how to run that whole pipeline from a chat - and how to package it into one-click workflows.
