Creating AudioTimeline Editor

Timeline Editor

Fine-tune your audio production with a visual waveform editor for voices, sound effects, and music.

Overview

The timeline editor gives you a visual, waveform-based view of your entire audio production. Every segment is laid out on a timeline so you can see exactly how your voices, sound effects, and music fit together.

Three Audio Layers

Your production is organized into three independent layers:

  • Voices — Dialogue and narration

  • Sound Effects — Ambient sounds, foley, and spot effects

  • Music — Background scores and musical cues

Each layer has its own volume slider and mute toggle, so you can solo a layer or adjust the mix on the fly.

Use the layer volume controls to balance dialogue against music and sound effects before exporting.

Playback Controls

  • Play / Pause — Start and stop playback at any point

  • Seek — Click anywhere on the timeline to jump to that position

  • Playback speed — Speed up or slow down for review

Drag and Drop

Rearrange your production by dragging segments to new positions on the timeline. Move a sound effect earlier, shift a music cue later, or reorder dialogue — all with drag and drop.

Per-Segment Actions

Click on any segment to access its controls:

  • Regenerate — Generate a new version of this segment

  • Delete — Remove the segment from the timeline

  • Edit text — Change the dialogue, description, or caption

  • Change voice — Assign a different voice to a dialogue segment

  • Apply effects — Add voice filters or audio effects

  • Adjust timing — Fine-tune the start time and duration

Trimming

Every segment supports non-destructive start and end trimming. Drag the edges of a segment to trim silence or unwanted audio. Your original audio is preserved — you can always extend the trim back out.

Adding New Segments

Need something that isn't in your script? You can add new segments directly from the timeline:

  • Generate new — Create a new voice line, sound effect, or music segment with AI

  • Add from library — Pull in audio you've saved to your Media Library

  • Upload audio — Import your own audio files
