Audio Waveform & Sound Wave Generator
Turn audio into an animated waveform video with your colours, background and captions.
Exemplary AI's waveform generator turns an audio file into a video of an animated waveform that moves with the sound.
There are 10 styles, including line, double line, multi-line, circle, hill and bars, placed at the top, center or bottom of the frame, over a colour or image background, with optional captions. You export it as an MP4 (H.264) video in 9:16, 1:1 or 16:9.

- Pick the part to use: select it in the transcript and click "Create Audiogram", up to 10 minutes.
- Choose a wave style, its position and colour, and a background.
