Record a video to your song

Make a clip for TikTok, Reels or a pitch, using your own recording as the sound.

Steps

  1. 1

    Open Video and create a project. Choose the folder in your drive where the finished videos should be saved.

  2. 2

    Pick the song and the version you want, then set Start at and End at to the part you want to perform — leave End at blank to run to the end of the song.

  3. 3

    Choose the shape: Portrait for TikTok and Reels, Square, or Landscape. The recording is cropped to that shape, so what you see is what you get.

  4. 4

    Choose the sound: Song only keeps the studio-clean track, Song + my voice records both, and My camera only plays the song for you without putting it in the file.

  5. 5

    Press Turn on camera, then Record. You get a three-count, the song plays, and recording stops on its own at your end marker.

  6. 6

    Watch the take back. Keep this take saves it to your drive, Record again starts over, and Discard throws it away.

  7. 7

    Saved videos are listed under the recorder, where you can play them, copy a share link, or download them.

Tips

  • Wear headphones when you record Song + my voice, otherwise the song is picked up twice.
  • Videos live in your own cloud drive — we only keep the link, the same as everything else in the app.
  • Keep takes under three minutes; long clips are slow to upload from a phone.

Troubleshooting

  • If the camera won't open, allow camera access for the site in your browser settings and reload.
  • Close any other app using the camera — most devices only let one app use it at a time.
  • iPhone, iPad and Mac save MP4; Chrome and Edge on Windows save WebM, which some social apps won't accept directly.
