Step 3: Adjusting Your Music
After adding your selected music track, you can customize it to match your video:
Press Square to open the edit music menu:
- Move the Music: Select Move to position the music at the right moment in your video. (Tip have the timeline at the beginning of the music track so as you move it you can see what video frame you are on when you confirm it)
- Fade In and Fade Out: Select the fade-in/fade-out option and adjust the duration (up to 5 seconds) for a smoother transition.
- Change Volume: Adjust the music volume so it doesn’t overpower your voiceover or game sounds. (you can use ‘Prioritise’ to prioritise the music track volume over the gameplay and track 2 volume by ticking the prioritise button in volume setting)
- Split the Music: Press X to split the track at a specific point and delete any unwanted sections if you don’t want to use the whole music track.
- Clone Music: If you want the same track to play again, select Clone to duplicate it.
Step 4: Preview and Final Adjustments
Before finalizing your video, play it back to ensure the music complements your gameplay. Adjust the audio levels as needed to create a balanced mix between gameplay sounds, commentary, and background music.
Bonus Tip: Adding Custom Music
While Sharefactory’s built-in music options are limited, you can import your own music using a USB drive. Simply create a folder on your USB drive called SHAREFACTORY. Within that folder create a new folder called MUSIC.
Save your MP3 files to the MUSIC folder on your USB, then insert it into your PS4, and select Import Music in Sharefactory. Once imported you can add it to your video project following the same steps as above.
