Tips

  • You can control the volume of your soundtrack if your video includes only video assets. Learn more about this feature in our article, Controlling Media Volume.

  • Soundtracks from our library begin right when a video starts and play for the entirety of the video. If you would like to use a delayed soundtrack or have a soundtrack play over specific parts of a video, consider uploading a soundtrack that meets your specifications.

  • If you are using the Voiceover feature, your selected soundtrack will play over the voiceover.
