How to add music to a video

1. Choose your video: MP4, MOV or WebM, from your phone or computer. 2. Add the song: MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC, OGG or FLAC. 3. Set the music and original sound levels, where the song starts, and whether it loops and fades out. Press play to preview. 4. Export and download. The new video is exactly as long as your clip.

Why the picture keeps its quality

Most online editors decode every frame of your video and compress it again, which costs quality and takes about as long as the clip. This tool doesn't touch the picture. It reads the compressed video frames from your file and writes them, unchanged, into the new one, next to a new sound track made from your song. That is why a 4K clip stays 4K, the colors don't shift, and a minute-long video is done in seconds.

FAQ

How do I add music to a video for free?

Choose your video on this page, add an audio file, set the music volume and where the song starts, then press Export and download the result. It is free, needs no account, and adds no watermark.

Can I add audio to a video without losing quality?

Yes. The video track is copied packet for packet, not re-encoded, so resolution, frame rate and sharpness stay exactly as they were. Only the sound is new: it is encoded as AAC at 192 kbps.

Can I keep the original sound and add music under it?

Yes. Use the Original sound slider to keep voices or ambience at any level, and lower the Music slider so the song sits underneath. Set Original sound to zero to replace it with the music.

What if the song is longer or shorter than the video?

The export is always exactly as long as the video. A longer song is cut at the end of the clip, with an optional fade-out. A shorter song can loop until the video ends, or stop and leave silence.

Can I start the music from the chorus?

Yes. Drag the Song starts at slider to the moment you want the video to begin with, and press play to check it against the picture before you export.

Is my video uploaded anywhere?

No. The video and the song are read and written by your browser on your own device. Nothing is sent to Solmi or anyone else, which is also why it works on large files without waiting for an upload.

Which formats and browsers work?

Videos in MP4, MOV and WebM up to 2 GB (1 GB on phones and tablets), and songs in MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC, OGG or FLAC. You get an MP4, or a WebM if you started from one. It needs a current version of Chrome, Edge or Safari (26 or later); older browsers get a message instead of a broken file.

Can I use any song?

You can add any audio file you have, but posting music you don't own may get the video muted or claimed on YouTube, TikTok or Instagram. Use music you made, licensed, or that is royalty free, or make an original song with Solmi's AI music generator.

I have a song but no video. What can I do?

Turn the song itself into a video with Solmi's AI music video generator: upload the track and it plans the shots, renders the visuals in sync with the music and adds lip sync. It is free to start.
