How To Attach External Audio To Your Videos In Videoleap (Mobile Editing ) #videoleap
Education
Introduction
In today’s tutorial, we’re going to explore how you can efficiently transfer audio recorded on your computer to your mobile device and attach it to videos using the Videoleap app. Good audio quality is essential for enhancing video content, and if you’ve recorded audio separately with a desktop microphone or wireless recorder, this guide is for you!
Step-by-Step Guide
Getting Your Video to Your Phone
If you’ve filmed your video using your phone, you can skip this step since the video is already on your device. However, if you've used a camera or your computer for filming, you’ll need to transfer that video file to your smartphone.
Recording Audio on Your Computer
Choose Your Microphone: Most microphones connect via USB. For instance, the Blue Yeti Pro is a popular choice. If you’re purchasing a microphone, USB options are generally more affordable and user-friendly.
Recording Software: Use a program like Audacity (free) or Ableton (if you have it) to record your audio. As a music producer, I use Ableton, which can also be utilized for recording voiceovers.
Exporting the Audio: After recording your audio, export it as an MP3 or WAV file.
Transfer to Your Phone: Send the audio file to your phone, so you can combine it with your video.
Editing in Videoleap
Create a New Project: Open the Videoleap app and start a new project. Select your video file you just transferred.
Audio Lane Adjustment: Play your video without the audio first to identify where to sync your recorded audio.
Match Up Audio:
- Since you recorded your audio separately, you will need to sync it up with the video.
- Mute the video audio and unmute your recorded audio so you can line them up correctly.
Cutting & Trimming:
- Use the cut feature to trim any silent portions from the start of your audio clip.
- Once you've found the right sync, cut your video and audio at the same point, which helps avoid misalignment later.
Final Adjustments:
- Pay attention to details such as brightness and color grading to enhance the visual aesthetics.
- Once everything looks and sounds good, export the finished video in your preferred format and quality.
Final Touches
After exporting, you can import the edited video back into a new Videoleap project for any final touches. This step isn’t necessary if you're satisfied with the initial export.
