The Tik Tok application pleases its users with a huge number of different musical compositions. In addition to original author’s songs, here you can find amateur works in the form of slow-motion or mixed tracks. Short videos with a pleasant melody involuntarily attract attention. But some users have a question: how to cut the sound in Tik Tok? There is a solution!
Within the application itself
First, let’s take a look at Tik Tok itself and the functions it provides. There are not as many of them as we would like. And in general, the work is usually supposed to be with video, and not with musical accompaniment.
We will work with the video editor, as well as with the camera mode before shooting. We do this:
- Click on the music record icon of the sound you like from the video in the recommendations OR on the plus in the center of the bottom menu.
- If you have selected a disc, then the sound is already there, but if it is plus, then click on “Add music“.
- Select the desired track in the search.
- Now that the music has been added, we can work with it. Tik Tok from above will display information about the duration of the melody you have chosen for a couple of seconds.
- Select the time 15s above the big red button.
- Go to the “Crop” button in the sidebar.
Now you can select any fragment. Just use your finger to move the audio track in any direction. Do not forget to click on the red arrow so that the selected fragment remains. You can start shooting.
Screen recording
One of the fairly easy ways to add an already trimmed fragment is to record the desired song through video, screen recording. Then upload to your profile as a private video. Now your own sound is available to you, on the record of which you can press and shoot.
Third Party Applications
Processing tracks in the application does not work — we understood this. So, you have to use something that is intended for this. Will have to freeze.
There is more than enough choice on the Internet. For example: MP3 Cutter; Music Editor, as well as various online services such as Beautiful Audio Editor; audiotool; Bear Audio Tool; Sodaphonic; Diktorov.net and others. They help you customize any composition for yourself.
Let’s take one of them as an example:
- Go to MP3 Cutter.
- You don’t need to install it on your PC, the program works online.
- First of all, we need to select a pre-prepared music file from the computer.
- We can listen to the uploaded track directly in the program, and then select unnecessary moments.
- Move the slider to the point at which we want to start cropping.
- Rewind or listen to the end of the moment to be trimmed, press the “Save” button.
- After, select “Save” again.
Ready! The moment will be cut. Repeat this several times until the fragment you need remains, then click on the save button.
Adding
It is very similar to screen recording, because we need to connect the new received track with some kind of video material, which will later be uploaded to Tik Tok. To do this, use any application that connects video and audio. For example, VivaVideo, Inshot, StoryBeat, etc.
If no TikTok music was selected when uploading to Tik Tok, the track will be called “Original Sound” with your nickname.
Rules
It is very important that when uploading your own composition, you take into account all kinds of points that Tik Tok prohibits the distribution of any propaganda of drugs, alcohol, cigarettes. Extremism in any of its manifestations, insulting people on any grounds, as well as 18+ materials are prohibited.
Unfortunately, if you do not fulfill the requirements, it is quite possible to get an account block. They rarely recover, be extremely careful.
How to save sound
If you like the music that plays in one of the user videos, you can keep it for yourself. Rather, add to favorites. To do this, simply click on the plate with the track.
Then tap on the “Favorite” checkbox.
To find them later, you just need to go to the Tik Tok camera, and then to “Add music“. There are two tabs in total. Our second.
Summary
The sea of soundtracks on Tik Tok raises the question of how to cut them up in order to create what you like. In the application itself, the possibilities for editing music are quite limited, but this can be done separately, so that later you can upload it under the guise of your own sound.
