Organize your library into folders
Create folders in your Library and file music, sound effects, dubs and exported videos into them. Sounds you save from Discover can go in a folder too.
Put a Text to Music track on your video
Every finished Text to Music variation now has an "Add to video" button. The track goes onto the music lane of a new video project, ready for the video you add.
Restore deleted tracks from Trash
What you delete from your Library now goes to Trash first. Restore it within 30 days, or delete it for good.
Get listening notes on your music
Press Analyze under a Text to Music result and Sonilo listens to both variations. It writes how they differ, what plays, the rhythm and the mood, section by section, as notes you can copy.
Fade music and sound effects in and out
Press Fade in/out on a music or sound effects lane in the Studio, then drag the handles to set how the sound starts and ends. The fades carry into your audio downloads and MP4 export.
Join several videos into one

Add music or sound effects to up to 10 videos at once
Choose Batch create, add up to 10 videos, and each one gets its own music or sound effects. Analyze every video in one click, and change one video's settings or give them to all.
Remove background noise from video and audio
Upload a video or an audio file and Sonilo takes out traffic, wind, hum and chatter while the voice stays. Set Strength to keep some of the room, then download an MP4 or MP3.
Add sound to a video by chatting with an agent
Upload a video and say what you want. The agent plans the music, sound effects and dubbing, shows you the cost, and builds everything on a timeline once you approve.
Add music only where your video needs it
Choose Sections and Sonilo analyzes your video to pick where music and sound effects belong. Adjust the sections on the timeline, then download each one or the full track.
Translate your video into other languages
Upload a video and get it back dubbed in up to 23 languages, in the original speaker's voice. Proofread the translation before it is dubbed, add lip sync, and export subtitles.

Premium uploads now go up to 30 minutes, twice the previous limit. For videos longer than 8 minutes, the music is composed in sections that follow the picture.

Process videos up to 8 minutes with the API
Video-to-sound-effects now supports videos up to 8 minutes long via the Sonilo API. Send longer clips and full edits without splitting them first.
