However, you still can use the same trick with a track that has the steady beat. Since this is ambient music, the cross-fade is barely noticeable and the transition is very much seamless. Select the overlapping area in both tracks and add the cross-fade effect (Menu -> Effects -> Cross-fade Tracks).Ĭlick OK in the next dialogue and we’re done. Then click on the little horizontal arrow in the menu and push the second track to the right leaving 10-15 seconds of overlap. Once it’s loaded, load it again in a new lane.
Let’s look at each option in details: Option 1: Extend music in Audacity (free audio editor)įirst let’s load the audio track into Audacity, which is a free audio editing program. You can extend the music directly in your video editor. You can extend the music in an audio editor (we will use free editor called Audacity) and then import it to your video. If you want to create a very long background soundtrack for your video, there are two options: I want to extend it to run for 1 hour instead. In this post I’ll be using one of TunePocket’s meditation tracks:Īs you can see, this music track is only slightly over 10 minutes.
It’s completely up to you!Ĭross-fade works great for ambient music but you can use it for any music genre.įirst, we will need a music clip that we’ll be extending. With this technique you can seamlessly join two or more music files and extend it for as long as you’d like – one hour or ten hours. The technique that I’ll be using here is called cross-fade and it’s super easy and quick to learn. Let’s make a long background music soundtrack. These videos commonly use a single musical theme of sound effect (rain, waves, and so on) extended to run for several hours. Many of such videos are music videos that need long and seamless (no gaps!) soundtracks.Īnother example are meditation, relaxation and sleep videos. You have surely seen YouTube videos that last for anywhere from 1 hour to 10 hours or more. Usually the long background music or audio tracks are needed for extra long videos.
