Once a video is published, you can no longer edit it. Likewise, you can&#8217;t add your own music to a TikTok video. However, we&#8217;ll cover how to trim sound in a video and other features. Continue reading to learn more.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_can_only_trim_the_unwanted_part_of_a_song\"><\/span>You can only trim the unwanted part of a song<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>On TikTok, you can only trim the unwanted part of a recorded song. This means that you cannot remove the middle or beginning of the song. However, you can cut the parts of the song that are too short. You can find this feature in the &#8220;Trim&#8221; section of the song&#8217;s screen. After selecting the song, you can edit it by clicking the scissors or bookmark button in the top right corner.<\/p>\n<p>To cut a song, first select the video format you want to use. In most cases, you&#8217;ll be limited to 15 seconds. However, on TikTok, you can crop the length of the video or audio. Tap on the music note icon to crop the video to the exact length you&#8217;d like. Once you&#8217;ve done this, tap on the video&#8217;s &#8220;Edit&#8221; button to apply the changes.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_cant_edit_a_song_after_its_been_posted\"><\/span>You can&#8217;t edit a song after it&#8217;s been posted<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>While editing a video on TikTok is not possible after it has been posted, you can still add text and music to your clip. If you don&#8217;t want to post a whole new video, you can trim the existing one and edit the length of the sound or text. You can also crop your video by tapping the plus icon in the lower center of the screen.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_cant_add_your_own_music_to_a_TikTok_video\"><\/span>You can&#8217;t add your own music to a TikTok video<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re trying to add your own music to a Tiktok video, you&#8217;re not alone. Many other TikTok users have faced this problem. While it&#8217;s not illegal to add your own music to a video, it&#8217;s not always possible. In this article, we&#8217;ll cover how to add your own music to a video and avoid common pitfalls.<\/p>\n<p>The first step to add your own music to a Tiktok video is to choose a song. While most music players let you choose your own tunes, some apps limit what you can use. Some music services, such as Spotify, limit you to using royalty-free music. This means that you can only use music from popular artists or bands. If you don&#8217;t own the rights to a particular song, you can still download a clip and add it to your video.<\/p>\n<p>Another way to add music to your TikTok video is by using custom sounds. These sounds can be a funny voice or a sound effect. If you don&#8217;t have any music, you can record your own audio or use a song from the app&#8217;s library. If you&#8217;re trying to add your own music to a TikTok video, make sure the audio is clean, short, and original.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dHSv0FOkD9Y\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" height=\"278\" width=\"497\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Trim Sound on TikTok If you&#8217;re wondering how to trim sound on TikTok, it&#8217;s important to know that this feature is only available during the editing phase.
