Open your timeline, mute the temp track, and start with a clear brief. Enter your project type, target mood, pace, and length. Dial in filters like energy arc, BPM, vocal presence, era, and instrument focus to narrow results fast. Use keyword prompts ("uplifting, minimal, acoustic," or "dark, pulsing, electronic") to steer the catalog. Preview inside the browser and scrub the waveform to test intros, drops, and endings against your edit. If you’re cutting for ads or trailers, prioritize tracks with strong stings and defined sections; for narrative, favor cues with gradual builds and edit-friendly structure. Once you have contenders, save them to a project playlist and label each with where it might land (open, montage, call-to-action).

When collaborating, share a review link so clients or teammates can time-stamp comments. Compare alternate mixes (instrumental, no drums, sparse) to keep dialogue clean or reduce frequency clashes. Try loopable versions to extend a scene without awkward repeats, and audition 15/30/60 cutdowns to match spot durations. Download watermarked previews and test transitions in your NLE; mark the exact frame where you need a rise, drop, or button. When you’re ready to license, select the exact use (online, broadcast, event), territories, and duration. The license file saves to your project automatically so you can swap in the final audio with confidence and keep paperwork tidy. more
