Separating audio from video in Clipchamp is a straightforward process that allows you to edit your sound independently from your visuals. You can easily detach the audio directly from the video clip placed on your timeline.
Step-by-Step Guide to Detaching Audio
To separate the audio track from your video clip in Clipchamp, follow these simple steps:
- Locate your video clip: Find the video clip you want to modify on the Clipchamp editing timeline.
- Access the context menu: Right click on the video on the timeline. This will bring up a menu with various options.
- Select the audio options: From the context menu, click on the audio button.
- Detach the audio: Within the audio options, click on the detach button.
What Happens After Detaching?
Once you click the "detach" button:
- The audio file will separate from your video and will appear below your video on the timeline. It becomes a distinct track that you can edit independently.
- You can now freely cut, move, delete, or adjust the volume of the audio track without affecting the linked video segment above it.
- Clipchamp also conveniently performs an automatic action: The video audio will also automatically download to your computer. This saves a copy of the audio file to your local downloads folder.
This process gives you greater flexibility in your video editing, allowing for precise audio adjustments or even replacing the original sound entirely.
