Upload your video or use a video generated on our platform
Our AI analyzes the visual content frame by frame
The system identifies objects, actions, and scenes in your video
AI determines what types of sound effects would be appropriate

Step 2: Sound Generation

AI generates sound effects that match the identified content
Sounds are synchronized with the visual timing
Multiple sound layers can be combined for complex scenes
Volume levels are automatically balanced for optimal audio quality

Step 3: Integration and Export

Review the generated sound effects in the preview
Adjust timing, volume, or replace specific sounds if needed
Export your video with the integrated sound effects
Download in your preferred format and quality

Sound Effects FAQs

How does the AI know what sound effects to add to my video?

Our AI analyzes your video content frame by frame, identifying objects, actions, and scenes. It then generates appropriate sound effects based on what it sees - for example, if it detects a car, it will add engine sounds; if it sees an explosion, it will add explosion audio.

Can I add sound effects to videos I upload from my computer?

Yes! You can upload your own video files (MP4, MOV, AVI, etc.) and our AI will analyze them to add appropriate sound effects. The process works the same way as with platform-generated videos.

Is it easy to add sound effects after generating a video?

Absolutely! Adding sound effects is very easy and the option is provided on all video generation pages. After your video is generated, you'll see a "Add Sound Effects" button that allows you to enhance your video with AI-generated audio.

What types of sound effects can the AI generate?

Our AI can generate a wide variety of sound effects including vehicle sounds (cars, planes, motorcycles), explosions and impacts, mechanical sounds (gears, motors), environmental sounds (wind, rain, thunder), human actions (footsteps, breathing), and musical elements.

Can I customize the generated sound effects?

Yes, you have full control over the sound effects. You can choose from multiple options, adjust timing and volume, replace specific sounds, add additional layers, or remove unwanted audio elements entirely.

How accurate is the sound synchronization?

Our AI provides highly accurate sound synchronization by analyzing visual movement and timing. Sounds are automatically aligned with visual events, and you can fine-tune the timing if needed for perfect synchronization.

Can I use sound effects with videos generated on other platforms?

Yes, you can upload videos from any source and add sound effects. Our AI works with any video content, regardless of where it was created, as long as it's in a supported format.

What audio quality can I expect from the generated sound effects?

Our AI generates high-quality sound effects at 44.1kHz sample rate with professional audio processing. The sounds are mastered for optimal quality and can be exported in multiple formats including MP3, WAV, and AAC.
