Agentic sound design

Turn your creative direction into a layered sound bed with the invideo editor. Tell the agent what the scene needs, from background ambience to music and precisely timed effects, and it builds the sound on your timeline.

Build your sound bed with AI agents

Generate sound effects and music for your footage

Describe the sound you need, from an individual effect to a mood-setting music track, and the invideo agent will generate the audio and add it to your timeline.

Find and import audio that fits the scene

Ask for music, ambience, or sound effects to accompany your footage, and the agent will search the built-in sound library and bring relevant audio into your project.

Create sound effects and sound beds from references

Share a reference and identify a specific sound effect or the overall sound treatment. The agent can then generate and guide the sounds, layering, and timing for a single moment or an entire sound bed.

Layer and time sounds to your footage

Direct the agent to place effects against actions, carry ambience through a scene or build music towards a reveal, and it arranges the audio on your timeline accordingly.

Balance dialogue, music and effects

Ask the agent to bring dialogue forward, duck music beneath speech or soften an effect that overpowers the scene. It adjusts the layers to create the balance you want.

Balance dialogue, music and effects

Refine the sound with your feedback

Ask for a different track, a subtler effect or a longer buildup, and the agent applies your feedback to your timeline.

How to do sound design inside the invideo editor

  1. Add your footage and audio

    Bring your footage into a project or open an existing edit. Add any music, recordings or sound effects you want to use, or generate them within the editor.

  2. Tell the agent how you want it to sound

    Describe the mood, the sounds you need and the moments they should support. For example: “Add quiet street ambience beneath the conversation, footsteps as she walks away and music that builds towards the reveal.” Share a reference if you have a particular treatment in mind.

  3. Listen, refine and export

    Listen to the audio alongside your footage. Ask the agent for changes or fine-tune individual layers with the timeline and audio controls, then export to Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or Final Cut Pro when you’re happy with the result.

FAQs

What is agentic sound design?

Agentic sound design lets you give an AI agent creative direction and have it carry out sound-design work in your edit. In the invideo editor, the agent can generate or source audio, arrange it around your footage and revise the result from your feedback.

Can the agent generate new audio and use stock sounds?

Yes. It can generate music and sound effects using the models available inside the editor, or find existing audio in the built-in library. Tell it what the scene needs and whether you have a preference for generated or stock audio.

Can I use my own music and sound effects?

Yes. Upload your audio to the project and tell the agent how you want it used. You can combine your recordings with audio sourced or generated inside the editor.

Can I use a reference for the sound design?

Yes. Share a reference and explain what you want to draw from it, such as an individual effect, the atmosphere or the way music and effects build together. The agent uses that direction to create a treatment for your footage.

Can I ask for sound design on just one scene?

Yes. Identify the scene or moment you want to work on and describe what it needs. You can request an effect for a single action or a sound bed across a longer sequence.

Can I change individual sounds after the agent adds them?

Yes. Ask the agent to replace a sound, change its timing, adjust its level or revise its treatment. You can direct changes to specific elements without asking for a completely new sound bed.

Can I refine the sound design manually?

Yes. The audio remains editable on the timeline. Move and trim clips, adjust levels and fades, and use panning, mute, solo and audio effects to refine the individual layers.
