As RUclips has been pushing its TikTok competitor, Shorts, new features have been being added frequently, including the "Use This Sound" feature. Today, we are here to help you learn several methods as to how you can add sounds to your Shorts, including using sounds from other Shorts, and using sounds from RUclips videos. This feature still has its limit, however, so we will then show you how to add any sound to any video using our online video editor Kapwing.

Thank you so much for explaining this. I've been searching all through RUclips for a simple explanation and you nailed it. Thanks again! 🙂🎯

Finally! I was looking for this comment

[@JimijaymesProductions]

How to hell do you get the volume section on your own sound. All shorts I make are really quiet, signficantly quieter than say an equivalent tik tok.

[@makeyourday5574]

I know the music on my RUclips shorts will play the music super quiet

Hi I would like to edit the shorts from my phone, since adding music from RUclips app should increase engagement correct? I have an issue that I don't see on my android a way to adjust the music vs my voice. I do see that option on Iphone. Thank you

Nice work

Hi
How can I do the position and Zoom aka Ken Burns Effect in Kapwing?

Can you move the start of the music to play later in the short?

Please do an updated version of method 1 please 🙏

[@OnlyShorts.69]

But bro wht about using already recorded vid and adding the sound hence the audio in vid gets muted anyway with both the methods
Help me to understand how to work with the vid audio with the song

[@jailavon]

So when you use this sound option for music is it not copyright?

[@StevieSCustoms]

I don’t have the “use this sound” option when I click on the wave file icon. Nore can I add sounds to my favorites. I am logged in and already made a couple of shorts, so that does work. Do you know what’s up with that?

[@cl4ym0re]

I have no idea too, it's happening too me also even though I've created multiple shorts also. It doesn't let me use any popular sounds and stuff. I searched it on both Google and RUclips. It just shows other questions.

[@MitchCuisine]

The problem is we can use the shorts music but the original sounds is totally muted ..anyone can experience specially the android user shorts is too loud no feature to minimize and maximum..Might any trick please share you're thought guys thanks...most of my shorts video with music i cant adjust the volume..

[@flyinryan1459]

Any way to disable this on videos? I know I don't own any of the music recorded in the video but I couldn't prevent there being music as it was coming through someone else's mic. I dislike people using my recorded audio from a video.

[@vvayzvvayz6520]

i have small ques plz. How 2 do banner inside the video with kapwings and from this banner i can type 4example names or sentence with different animations in background??? And its really nice prog. kapwings this

[@pix2.0]

I have a video of my dog baking at the end. If i stop the audio just before that, will I be able to then hear my dog bark?

[@MitchCuisine]

there is no feature to adjust the volume minimize maximize ..So the Music 🎶 is always on the ToP can't hear the original sounds of the video ..strange yt..unlike in tiktok i can adjust it.

Hello, for some reason my RUclips App does not have the Volume bottom. I am using an Android Galaxy S20. Any idea why??? Thanks

Serious Question 🙋‍♀️ I would like all of my shorts to be uploaded as 4k and the only way I know how to do this is to upload from a computer. BUT when you upload from the computer, you do not get the option to add RUclips Sounds / Audio, and I am trying to implement trending songs from RUclips instead of using Epidemic Sound. How to I get 4k shorts and also access to RUclips Sounds?! Helpppp

I mean sorry I can’t help you with your problem but maybe you could help me out. So I know I’m dumb when it comes to this… but where can I find the sounds I saved? Like I can’t find videos where they show it :,)) It would be really nice if you’d could explain in case you know it :)
