Music Bed. Auto-Ducked.
Already in Premiere.

EditLint AI picks a track from your local music library, places it as a bed on a dedicated audio track and applies gain so dialogue stays front and centre. No manual level-riding.

Mood Selection

Match the music to the content, not just the clock.

The AI analyses your transcript for sentiment and pacing to suggest a mood category for the music track. Upbeat tutorial content gets an energetic suggestion. Reflective interview content gets a calm suggestion. You always have final control.

  • Upbeat — product launches, tutorials, high-energy vlogs
  • Corporate — business case studies, explainers, brand videos
  • Calm — interviews, documentaries, meditation content
  • Dramatic — sport, news, event highlights
  • Manual override — always choose a specific track or mood yourself

Mood detection uses the transcript sentiment analysis rather than audio analysis — it categorises the content mood, not the existing audio, which is the correct input for selecting an appropriate music bed.

Auto-Ducking Explained

Music that stays out of the way of your dialogue.

Auto-ducking lowers the music gain whenever dialogue is detected on the primary audio track and restores it during silent sections. EditLint AI implements ducking using gain keyframes written directly onto the music track in your NLE — the same technique a mixer would use manually, just automated.

The duck level is the gain the music drops to during dialogue (default –30 dB). The attack time is how quickly it ramps down when speech starts (default 300ms — fast enough to clear space before the first word lands). The release time is how quickly it ramps back up after speech ends (default 500ms — slow enough to feel natural).

  • Duck analysis driven by the silence detector output
  • Keyframes written on music track, not on dialogue track
  • All keyframes removable — original track unmodified
  • Fade in at start and fade out at end of sequence
Asset Library Setup

Your own music. Organised by mood tag.

Point EditLint AI at a folder containing your licensed music tracks. Tracks are matched to the selected mood using filename keywords and any mood tags in the file metadata. Tracks tagged corporate, calm or upbeat in their ID3 tags or filenames will be indexed correctly.

  • Works with any licensed royalty-free music library
  • Supports MP3, WAV, AIFF, AAC and FLAC
  • Per-project music folder override in Brand Presets
  • Tracks are looped automatically to match sequence duration
How It Works

Select mood. Pick track. Place and duck.

1

Mood Detection or Manual Select

EditLint AI suggests a mood based on transcript sentiment analysis. Accept the suggestion or choose a different mood from the panel. You can also bypass mood selection and choose a specific track from your library directly.

2

Track Selected and Placed

The best-matching track from your music library for the selected mood is placed on a dedicated audio track at the start of the sequence. If the track is shorter than the sequence, it is looped with a short crossfade. If it's longer, it is trimmed and faded out at the sequence end.

3

Auto-Ducking Applied

The silence detector identifies where dialogue is present. Gain keyframes are written on the music track to duck it during speech and restore it during silent sections. The whole process — from track selection to placed keyframes — takes under 10 seconds.

Music in your edit. Without touching a gain slider.

From blank sequence to music-bedded and auto-ducked in under 10 seconds. Your local library. Your licensed tracks. Placed and mixed automatically.
