Adding Music
Add intro, outro, and background music to your episode from the script editor toolbar.
How to Add a Music Track
- In the script editor toolbar, click the Add Music button.
- Choose a music type from the dropdown:
- Intro Music — plays at the beginning of your episode
- Outro Music — plays at the end of your episode
- Background Music — plays throughout the episode behind the dialogue
- The media picker opens. Browse or upload an audio file and confirm.
The track appears as a new row in the timeline editor, separate from the main Podcast Audio track.
You can only have one track per music type. To replace a track, remove the existing one first, then add a new file.
Removing a Music Track
- Open the Add Music dropdown again.
- Music types that already have a file show the filename and a delete icon.
- Click the item to open a confirmation dialog.
- Confirm to remove it from your episode.
Managing Music on the Timeline
Each music track has its own row in the timeline editor with a mute button in the track header. Use this to preview your episode with or without music during playback.
Use the fade handles at the start or end of a music segment to create smooth volume ramp-ins and ramp-outs. Drag the handle inward to set the length of the fade.
