How to add sound effects

Three steps in the editor, no audio software needed.

Upload your talking-head video

Upload a recording from your phone or camera. Jupitrr builds a first edit, ready for you to add sound.

Add a sound at the right moment

Go to the word, number or cut you want to emphasise and add a sound from the Sound tab. Add as many as the video needs.

Adjust it and export

Try a different sound or use your own, adjust the timing and volume so it sits under your voice, then export.

What Jupitrr does, and what you decide

The first edit keeps sound light. You choose where the effects go.

Automatic

  • One Swoosh as an early B-roll clip appears, when your first edit includes B-roll.
  • A short sound on B-roll you add later, which you can change or set to None.
  • Background music under the whole video, when your first edit includes it.

You change

  • Where each sound effect plays, to the tenth of a second.
  • Which of the six sounds plays, or your own MP3.
  • The volume of each sound.
  • The sound and volume on each B-roll clip, or Apply to all.
  • Whether B-roll plays sounds at all.

With Levio

Ask Levio in plain language to switch B-roll Sounds off, remove the sound effects you placed, move one, or change the music and its volume. Placing a new sound and choosing which one plays happen in the Sound tab.

Good to know

  • Uploaded sound effects must be MP3 files of up to 5 seconds and 2 MB.
  • A sound plays for its own length. You set the start, not the end.
  • Split-screen B-roll layouts have no B-roll sound.
  • Formats that fill the screen, such as Tier List, don't get the automatic Swoosh.

Frequently asked questions

How do I add sound effects to a video?
Upload the video to Jupitrr and open the Sound tab. Move the playhead to the moment you want, select Add Sound, then pick a sound, set when it plays and how loud it is. Sounds play in the preview and in your exported video.
Which sound effects are included?
Six: Whoosh, Swoosh, Paper turn, Click, Notification and Pop. You can also upload your own sound effects as MP3 files.
Can I upload my own sound effects?
You can upload your own sound effects. In the Sound Effect editor, select Upload mp3. A sound effect can be up to 5 seconds long and 2 MB. Your uploads are saved and appear under Your uploads in every video.
Does Jupitrr add sound effects automatically?
Lightly. When your first edit includes B-roll, Jupitrr adds one Swoosh as an early B-roll clip appears, and B-roll you add later gets a short sound too. You can change the sound on any clip, set it to None, or switch B-roll Sounds off for the whole video. Placing sounds on words or moments is up to you.
Can Levio add sound effects for me?
Levio can switch B-roll Sounds on or off, move or remove sounds you placed, and change the background music. It can't place a new sound effect or choose which sound plays, so do that in the Sound tab.
Can I shorten a sound effect?
You cannot shorten a sound effect. A sound plays for its own length, and you choose when it starts. For a shorter sound, upload a trimmed MP3. Sounds on B-roll clips stop when the clip ends.
