Sound mode: full guide

Sound mode skips melodies entirely: it generates one 30-second ambient soundscape — rain on a window, crackling fire, ocean waves — and repeats it for the length you choose, paired with one atmospheric visual loop. It's the cheapest way to make very long videos, and it's made for listening: sleep, focus, meditation, background.

Cost and durations

Every preset, including a custom length up to 10 hours, is available on every plan; you only need the credits for it.

Describing the sound

You write two short prompts: the sound ("rain, fireplace crackling, cozy cabin") and the visual ("rain-streaked window, warm lamp light, night"). Six one-click templates cover the classics: rain & fireplace, ocean waves, forest stream, thunderstorm, autumn wind, coffee-shop ambience. Or press Surprise Me for a seasonal sound idea with its length already set. A sound idea from our research report opens Sound mode directly.

The 30-second loop

You confirm the credit cost on the first step, and the wizard then generates the 30-second soundscape — the exact clip that repeats for the whole video, not a preview of something longer. Listen for anything that stands out, because it will come back every 30 seconds, and regenerate until it's right. Then you pick one of 4 images, check its 10-second video loop and continue to export, like in the other modes. Sound videos up to 30 minutes render in one pass, roughly twice as fast as before; longer ones render in two steps on our servers.
