Adding Sound Effects to Videos with ElevenLabs' Video to Sound Generator

ElevenLabs' new video-to-sound generator combines AI vision technology with the SFX API to analyze video frames and automatically generate sound effects that match the situation in the footage.

The AI identifies key features in the video, such as vehicles, people, and background, to create sounds optimized for the situation. For example, in a car chase scene, it generates tire friction sounds and engine noise, while for a street musician scene, it generates guitar playing sounds along with ambient noise.

Users can use the service by following these steps:

• Upload a video to the ElevenLabs video-sound page
• AI analyzes the video and generates various sound effects
• Check a preview of the generated sound with the video
• Download the result and use it in a video editor

This tool is very useful for enhancing the immersiveness of videos made with various AI video models such as Google Veo 2, Runway Gen-3, and Kling 1.6. For those who want finer control, the text-to-sfx feature, which allows direct prompt input, can also be used alongside it.
