Add background music to part of a project in Trebble

Add music or a sound bed behind one selected section of a Trebble project.

Use background music when you want music or another audio bed to play behind one section of your project while the spoken audio stays in place.

When to use this

  • Add a short music bed under an intro, transition, or outro.

  • Add sound design under one selected section.

  • Keep the rest of the project unchanged.

Steps

  1. Open your project in the Trebble Editor.

  2. Select the transcript words for the section where the background music should play.

  3. Click the background audio or Insert Element control that appears for the selection.

  4. Choose a track from the music library, uploads, or workspace assets.

  5. Add the track as background audio for the selected section.

  6. Preview the section before exporting.

Good to know

  • Background music wraps the selected transcript section. Select only the part of the project where the music should play.

  • If the music should continue for the full selected duration, open the background music settings and use loop or duration controls where available.

  • Use volume and lower-volume-during-speech settings when the music competes with the voice.

If something goes wrong

  • If the music is missing, confirm the correct transcript section is selected and the asset is available in the active workspace.

  • If the music is too quiet, check whether lower volume during speech is enabled.

  • If the exported file does not match the preview, retry export once and contact support with the project URL, browser, and approximate export time.
