The clipping at 6:34 can be easily fixed by simply adding the effect 'CC Composite'. Make sure it is ABOVE the 'Audio Spectrum' under 'Effects Controls'

You're a lifesaver, thanks!

Great tutorial! The clipping waveform (at 6:34 ) is easily fixed by right click and add a new mask. That's it!

Thank you so much bro you just saved me a bunch of time!!

I fixed it by feathering the mask a bunch

[@shanehubbardcreator]

You solved a problem I have been trying to figure out for ages. The duration averaging to spread the sound wave around the audio spectrum is a game changer. Thank you again!

[@shanehubbardcreator]

I really appreciate you breaking down this process so thoroughly. This is the only video I have found on this that explains what everything is with an example. Great video man!

Hey nice tutorial. However I still have a problem for days now with this, because I have a smartphone icon with some transparency and I need to apply the trim path effect on it only on the borders of the shape exactly like you did but instead I get some weird whiteness filling the whole icon including the transparent parts. Any suggestions that could help me solve this ?

[@Retro_80s_Guy]

Great tutorial! Is there a way to set source to all audio in project instead of just a single file?

[@ananya5679]

Thanks!!!

[@BrookerFilms]

Thanks for your support

[@bmvthemoviefanatic7282]

Does anyone know if you can do this using anything else other than After Effect?

[@averyc7492]

How do you remove the black solid layer??

[@nullzonebeats4555]

what to do if i want to run it with both sides, but on a its start to dissapear

[@anthonymeek26]

great vid. how would you get the waveform on the outside of the shapes?

[@anthonymeek26]

my side A or B isn't pushing outside the square shape I'm using... weird

[@coachsstrange7859]

Can you have unique reactives for a conversation between two or more?

[@TheJohnCooperShow]

can this be done in premire pro?

[@daawnus]

Hey mate great tutorial, just one problem is i want it on the outside of the circle and its cutting off most of it its hard to explain, idk the terms but its being cut off by the borders of the circle i guess ( the square that you would adjust the size if you held ctrl+t in photoshop as an example ) hope this was explained alright lol

[@YehoshuadeBoerlo]

I had the same problem. If you increase Mask Expansion on your shape, that should give you the room you need.

[@Sxrn.0]

Do you know how to get the audio on the outside of the circle and not on the inside?

[@BrookerFilms]

I believe you change the side. I made an updated video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZnWk3-uid6dj6ssi=FhWBk2wzjjljM5sv

My AfterEffects ruins the Audio, i have no idea why but after a few seconds, it plays REALLY slow and i don't know what to do about it.

[@BrookerFilms]

That's a rendering issue. Your computer is struggling to keep up so it's essentially playing your video in super slow motion. Either render the sequence or reduce the playback quality. That problem won't be in the video when you export it from AE

[@MODOUAMARtvofficiel]

[@Superseaslug]

so i dont know what im doing wrong, but i did exactly what you did but the path will not show up. the dumbest thing is that ive done this before, im losing my mind. Edit: i was on two different shapes apparently
