To adjust video volume on iPhone in Vyra, open the footage in a project and change the clip's audio level. You can also ask chat to lower a loud section or balance the clips. Keep music and original audio separate so one change does not quiet everything.

A video filmed in several places can have several different sound levels. Start with the clip where the voice sounds clear. Use that as the reference while you bring the other clips closer to it.

Balance the clips

  1. Add your footage to the Vyra iPhone app.
  2. Listen through once and identify the loudest and quietest spoken sections.
  3. Adjust a clip's audio level on the timeline or ask chat to change that clip.
  4. Play the join from one clip into the next. Check for a sudden jump in loudness.
  5. Balance any music separately, keeping speech understandable.
  6. Export and check the saved video on the same phone you expect someone to watch it on.

Name the sound you want changed

"Make it quieter" can mean the music, the original clip or the whole mix. Say which one you mean. If the music is too loud only while you speak, ask for that section instead of lowering it everywhere.

Lower the music while I am speaking. Keep my original spoken audio at its current level. In the silent clips, let the music come back up. Do not mute the room sound entirely.

For a video that needs no original sound, you can ask to mute that clip audio and keep the separate music track. Listen again so you do not accidentally remove a spoken line you wanted.

What volume changes cannot repair

Turning a quiet recording up can also turn its background noise up. Turning a distorted recording down does not restore the missing detail. If a line is difficult to understand, a fresh voiceover may be clearer.

FAQ

Can I change the music without changing the voice?

Yes, when the music is on a separate track. If both sounds are already mixed into one source recording, a simple volume adjustment changes both together.

Can I mute a clip?

You can lower its original audio to silence. Check the rest of the timeline to make sure you kept any separate music or narration you need.

Will raising the volume remove background noise?

No. Raising a clip's volume can make its noise louder too. This guide covers level changes, not noise removal.
