Online Sound Wave Generator

Pick a wave shape, a colour and where it sits, and get your recording back as a video of its sound wave.

Sound wave generator

A sound wave generator draws a recording as a wave that rises and falls with the audio. Here the wave comes in 10 shapes across 6 families, and the line and bar shapes each have a top, middle and bottom variant. Upload MP3, WAV or M4A audio, choose a shape and colour, and download the wave as a video.

How it works

How to make a sound wave video

  1. Upload the recording as MP3, WAV or M4A and say which language is spoken in it.
  2. In the transcript, highlight the stretch you want and click "Create Audiogram" (10 minutes at most).
  3. Open the wave styles and try the shapes: line, double line, multi-line, circle, hill and bars.
  4. Move the wave to the top, center or bottom of the frame, colour it, and download the MP4 (H.264) file.

What it does

Why Use Exemplary AI's Sound Wave Generator?

The sound wave is drawn from your recording, in the same editor that makes clips and audiograms.

A shape for every look

A single line for a clean voice note, a circle for a round profile-style post, hills or bars for music. 10 in all.

Colour and background

Colour the wave to match your brand and lay it over a flat colour or your own image (1 MB at most).

A video, not a still

The result is an MP4 (H.264) video that plays the audio with the moving wave, in 9:16 (portrait), 1:1 (square) and 16:9 (landscape).

Questions

Common questions

What does a sound wave generator do?
It turns sound into a picture of its wave and animates that picture while the audio plays, so a voice note, a song or a podcast moment can be posted where only video is accepted.
Which sound wave shape should I use?
A single line keeps the focus on the voice; the double and multi-line shapes look busier; the circle suits square posts; hills and bars read well for music. Try a few in the preview before you download.
Can the sound wave sit at the top or bottom of the video?
Yes. Put it at the top, center or bottom of the frame. The line and bar shapes also come in top, middle and bottom variants.
Can I export the sound wave with a transparent background?
No. The download is an MP4 (H.264) video with the wave over a colour or an image; transparent exports are not offered.
How much audio can one sound wave video hold?
10 minutes. For a longer recording, make several videos from different parts of the transcript.
Can I make sound wave videos on the Free plan?
Yes. The Free plan includes 500 one-time credits; files up to 500 MB and 30 min long; 720p video exports with a watermark. Making sound wave videos uses the available credits.

One upload. Every format you need.

Drop in a recording and work from the transcript — clips, captions, chapters, show notes and posts all come from the same file.
