Voiceover Beta vs. Legacy Voiceover
Lumen5 has 2 versions of voiceover! Right now we're experimenting with a beta voiceover tool that allows you to upload a voiceover and build your video on top of it.
To turn this feature on, toggle on the voiceover beta settings from your account settings.
Once it's activated, you can create videos by uploading a voiceover in an MP3 file and adding overlays. More about that here.
This beta version of voiceover allows you to upload or record a voiceover at the beginning of your video, and then use the automatically generated transcript to layer video scenes on top. The legacy tool requires that you create all of your video scenes first, and then record a voiceover for the entire thing in one take at the end.
Not yet!
Please let us know! Betas are a really important step in figuring out what changes we need to make before a feature is fully released, so any feedback you can provide about why you didn't like this feature is really helpful. You can turn off the beta voiceover feature by toggling the setting to off in your account settings.
Those videos are still available in your account! You can download them from your dashboard anytime. If you want to edit videos with a legacy voiceover, you'll need to turn off the beta voiceover feature in order to load the creator.
Fair enough! Click on "Contact Support" from your profile menu or shoot an email to [email protected] and we'll help you out.
