How to add an audio track to your video

Music can have a dramatic effect on our perception of a video – no matter whether it’s a movie, a commercial, or a video presentation. But what if all you have is silent footage or a video with just a few snippets of voice commentary that really needs some good music to make it interesting? To add music to videos, download Movavi Video Editor. With this easy-to-use software you'll combine audio and video in a couple of minutes! Movavi’s software for Windows and Mac OS allows you to add sound in MP3, WMA, OGG, or FLAC format to your MP4, AVI, or any other format video and save it as a new file.

Adding a song to a video with Movavi Video Editor is quite easy. Read our instructions below and learn how to put music over a video clip in four simple steps.

Step 1. Download and install Movavi Video Editor

Download Movavi Video Editor and launch the installation file. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the app.

Step 2. Import your video

Click Add Files and select your video. Then move the imported video onto the timeline.

Step 3. Add music

Click Audio. Browse the categories or just search for an individual track in the Search bar. Pick the perfect match, add it to the timeline, and enjoy the vibe! To ensure the audio fits your video, just drag the edge of the audio track to adjust the length.

To customize the new track, double-click on it. In the Clip settings, you can change the Volume and Speed or add a Fade in or Fade out effect using the slider. You can also enable Normalize to balance the volume or Reverse to play the track backwards by checking the box next to the setting.

Step 4. Save the result

Click Export, set the desired output parameters, and hit Start.
