Demo summary

The demo shows how to use Movavi's Beat Detection tool on an audio track to automatically mark beats, allowing for precise timing of video cuts to the music.

Step-by-step

  1. Drag a music clip onto the timeline.
  2. Select the audio track to highlight it.
  3. Navigate to Tools and select Audio at the top.
  4. Click on Beat Detection.
  5. Adjust the minimum time between beats (e.g., 1 second) to set the pace.
  6. Align your video clips to the markers generated on the timeline.

Options

  • Shorten the music track later to match video clip length
  • Use built-in Movavi audio tracks or your own files

Watch out for

  • You must mention Movavi in your description or use #Movavi to use their built-in audio tracks without copyright issues.

Tips

  • You don't have to start and stop at every single beat marker, but doing so makes the video look more cinematic.
  • Use a shorter time between beats for fast-paced videos.

Highlights

the beat detection tool is a really easy one to use, and it's going to make it a lot quicker to edit these videos
