Add Audio to a Video Online

Open a video, choose an audio file, and press Add audio: the sound goes over the picture and the result downloads as an MP4 that plays anywhere. The audio can be anything your browser can play, an MP3 or M4A song, a WAV or a voice memo, or the sound of another video. Choose whether it replaces the original sound, is mixed with it, or whether the video simply goes silent, set the two volumes, and the player on the page plays the mix as you adjust it, so you hear the result before you make it. The picture is not touched: the video frames are copied into the new file as they are, which is why a full-length 4K clip takes seconds rather than a re-encode.

Replace, Mix, or Mute the Original Sound

Replace is the music-over-a-clip case, a song under a montage or a voice track over a screen recording where the room noise should go. Mix keeps the original and layers the new audio under it at the volume you set, which is how a narration sits over an interview or a quiet bed of music goes under a talking head; the Original sound slider brings the clip's own audio down to a whisper without losing it. Mute needs no audio file at all: it removes the sound from a video, for a clip that must go out silent. If the audio is shorter than the video, Repeat plays it again until the picture ends; if it is longer, it is cut where the video stops.

MP4 with AAC Sound, at Full Length

The new track is encoded as AAC in an MP4, the pair every phone, player and social platform expects, or as Opus in a WebM if you prefer. The video track is copied through without re-encoding wherever the container allows it, so the quality is exactly the original's and the file is ready in the time it takes to write it. Long videos are written straight to disk as they are made, so the length of a clip is not limited by memory. The Video Cropper does the same on the picture side, and the Video Frame Extractor pulls a still out of a clip.

Private by Design

Neither the video nor the audio leaves your device. Decoding, mixing and encoding all happen in your browser, with no upload, no watermark and no account. Close the tab and there is nothing anywhere to delete.

Frequently Asked Questions About Adding Audio to a Video

How do I add music to a video online for free?

Open the video on this page, press Choose audio file and pick the song, leave Replace selected if the clip's own sound should go or choose Mix to keep it, set the volume, and press Add audio. The result plays on the screen that follows; press Download to save it.

Can I keep the original sound and add audio on top?

Yes. Choose Mix, and set Original sound to the level you want under the new track. At full volume both play as they are; lower it for a voice-over that must stay clear over the clip's own audio.

Does it work with a voice recording or a WAV?

Yes. Any audio your browser plays works, including MP3, M4A and AAC, WAV, OGG and FLAC, and the sound of another video file. The track is re-encoded to AAC or Opus in the output.

What if the audio is shorter or longer than the video?

Shorter audio repeats until the video ends when Repeat is on, or ends early when it is off. Longer audio is cut where the video ends.

Is my video uploaded to a server?

No. The whole job runs in your browser on your own device, and nothing is sent anywhere.
