A soundtrack that ducks under your voice

A cleared backing track sits under the whole cut, drops whenever you speak, and fades cleanly at both ends — so your video has a pulse without ever fighting the point you are making.

A backing track that ducks under your voice

  1. A column of cleared backing tracks scrolls past a fixed selection: Neon Drive (Synthwave), Paper Planes (Indie Folk), Golden Hour (Lo-fi Beats), Boardroom (Corporate).
  2. The chosen track plays under the recording, drawn as a waveform along the bottom of the frame.
  3. A second lane above it shows when the speaker is talking.
  4. Every time the voice lane rises, the music lane drops to about a quarter of its height and the level readout falls from -6 dB to -19 dB.
  5. In the gaps between sentences the music swells back up to full level.

A Bed Under Every Cut

A backing track sits under the whole video and gives it a pulse. Silence between sentences is what makes a talking-head clip feel flat.

Ducked Under Your Voice

The music drops whenever you speak and comes back up in the gaps, so it never competes with the thing people came to hear.

Set the Level Yourself

Want it barely there, or driving the whole thing? The track volume is yours to set, and the change applies across the cut.

Starts and Ends Cleanly

The track is trimmed to the length of your video and faded at both ends — no abrupt cut-off mid-bar on the last frame.

On Top of Cleaned-Up Audio

Music goes over voice that has already had background noise removed and levels normalised, so the mix sounds deliberate rather than noisy.

Cleared to Post

The tracks are cleared for commercial use, so a good video does not come back muted by a platform copyright claim.
