Go as deep as you want

Use layers, overlays, markers, keyframes, beat tools and precise timeline editing when a project needs more than a quick setup. Undo and redo stay available as you refine.

LOOKS THAT MOVE WITH THE MUSIC

Give every song its own visual world.

Build from photos, video and ready-made styles, or create something that reacts to the track. CueLyrics keeps the look you preview consistent when you export.

01

Describe it. Create it. Bring it to life.

Create an AI background from a description, choose the parts you want to move, then turn it into a looping scene. Build up to three scene variations across a song and crossfade between them.

AI backgroundsLocal motionScene changes
02

Dynamic Visuals that react to your track.

Choose animated gradients, particles, ribbons, waves, rings, Pop Art, geometric styles, flowing organic looks and 3D forms. Let bass, beats and musical energy shape the movement.

03

Lyrics with real depth.

Turn lyric text into true 3D type with extrusion, bevel, chrome, neon and custom materials. Adjust depth, angle, perspective and lighting, then bring lines in with dimensional motion.

Finish the whole frame, not just the words.

Stack cinematic finishing effects, stage lights, spectrum graphics, waveform ribbons, bokeh, dust, starfields and more. Add subtle polish or push a video into something deliberately wild.

BUILT FOR THE WHOLE PROJECT

The useful details are already there.

CueLyrics includes the tools that usually send you back and forth between several apps.

A background library ready to browse

Search bundled stills and 4K looping videos by category, preview them live, save favourites and jump back to recent choices. Photos can also use slow zoom, pan, Ken Burns and parallax motion.

Templates and Brand Kits

Start from complete visual styles, save your own looks, and keep recurring fonts, lyric colours, accents and visual treatments together for a consistent series of releases.

Multiple lyric tracks

Add translation, romanised or alternate lyric tracks while reusing the timing you already created. Smart wrapping and auto-fit help keep words inside safe areas.

Intro cards, outros and overlays

Add a title, artist name, subtitle, artwork or logo before and after the lyrics, then layer images or video over the scene with position, scale, opacity and ordering controls.

Precise timeline tools

Use beat markers, snapping, tap tempo, clip trimming, nudging and keyframes for position, scale and opacity. Undo and redo are available across the creative workflow.

Media that stays manageable

See missing files, relink media safely, remove unused packaged assets and keep image, video and overlay layers organised with visibility, order, duplicate and lock controls.

From song to release

Start simple. Finish exactly where you want.

The guided path gets a first project moving quickly. Everything can still be opened in the full editor whenever you want more control.

Choose your song

Import WAV, MP3, M4A, AAC, AIFF or FLAC and see the waveform ready for editing.

Add your lyrics

Type, paste, import timed lyrics or use local transcription to create an editable first pass.

Sync & style

Auto-timing, snap to beats, pick a template and add lyric motion, backgrounds and effects.

Preview & export

Check the final look, run preflight and export for the platform and resolution you need.

READY FOR RELEASE

Export the video — and the lyrics.

Render H.264, HEVC MP4 or Apple ProRes* with your song included, polish the audio with gain, peak normalisation, fades and trim, and export timed lyrics separately when you need them.
