Adding Music

Please note: Custom MP3 files that are imported are limited to 30 seconds. For help with imported files, please see here.


Open your clip you want to edit and click Music.

From here, select the genre of music you are wanting to add. 

Once you have selected a song, you can edit your music via the Audio Properties window which will also help in increasing or decreasing the volume of the music in the clips.

Once you have found the song you want to add, click on the (+) to add it to your clip.

Once the song is added, you can drag the Music bar around to capture the specific part of the song you are wanting. 

You can also move the Music Element on your main timeline to control the starting/stopping point of the music. If you would like to trim the length of the music, you can click on the bars at the ends and adjust the length. 

And just like that you're done! Go ahead and save the edits, then upload the clip!

Just like the Music options, you will have an Audio Properties window to adjust the volume of the sound effect.
