Whether you're a casual content creator, social media enthusiast, or just want to improve your personal videos, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know.

Is it possible to replace audio in video?

Yes, these days you just need a browser to easily replace audio in video by swapping the original soundtrack with a new audio file. For example, you might want to add background music to your travel vlog, replace distracting original sound with clear narration, or mute unwanted noise and add a totally new voiceover. This is a simple yet powerful way to personalize videos, create fan edits, improve storytelling, or fix audio issues without redoing the entire video.

We have a simple tool that will help you complete your task in minutes.

How to replace audio in video

Clideo is an online platform that offers a variety of easy-to-use video and audio editing tools directly in your browser. One of them is the Add Music to Video tool, which is designed for quick and straightforward audio replacement tasks without the need for complex software. You just need your video file, new audio, and a browser with Internet access.

1. Upload a video file

   Start by visiting Clideo's Add Music to Video tool. Click "Choose file" to select a video file from your device. You can also upload it from Google Drive or Dropbox by clicking the arrow next to the button and choosing the source.

2. Change audio track in video

   Once your video has uploaded, click "Add audio" on the right side of the editor and select the new audio file you want to use.

   After uploading the new background audio, you'll see options like "Start at" to set the start time when the new audio begins. If the new audio is longer than the video, use "Trim audio" to shorten it. If it's shorter, click "Loop" to automatically loop the audio until the video ends. You can adjust the volume for the old audio and new audio separately by dragging the corresponding sliders. To fully replace the original audio, drag the video sound volume to 0%.

3. Convert video format (optional)

   If you want to change your video format, click "Format" under the player and select from popular formats like MP4, WMV, VOB, AVI, MKV, and more.

4. Download your video with a replaced audio

   When you finish editing, click "Export" to process the resulting video. Preview it to make sure the audio sounds right. If you're happy, click "Download" to save it to your device or upload it back to Google Drive or Dropbox. If you want to make changes, click "Edit" to return.
