Using calm music
Under a voice, pick sparse
A single piano or a pad leaves the 1–4 kHz range free for speech. Busy arpeggios in that range make a narrator sound muffled even at low volume.
Check the ending
Calm tracks often fade rather than resolve. If your video ends on a hard cut, trim to the end of a phrase, or generate a version with a clean final chord.
