Sound and music
In MAGIX Video easy 4 HD background music and audio commentary can be easily
added and edited.
Add background music
• Click on the "Music" button to choose background music for your video.
• Then select the desired music files. "Open" inserts the file into the audio track.
The length of the music will be adjusted to match the length of the video. The
background music will be adjusted automatically if you insert other images or
videos into the video project.
• You can insert additional music tracks before or after the selected music track
using its context menu or the arrow symbol (see illustration).
The music volume can be changed in the "Audio" dialog with the help of a separate
volume controller.
Hint: The music track will be cut off if it is longer than the video.
Keyboard shortcut: M
Reposition Background Music
If necessary, audio tracks can now be repositioned. Click in the center and move it with
the mouse key held down to the desired position.
Hint: If there are several audio tracks in the video project, they cannot be exchange
with each other and may be moved around only in the free ranges.
If an audio object is too short to drag and move it, simply cut the video object (view
page 21) above it. This is because the displayed length of the audio object is
depending on the real video object's length.
