How To Create An Audio Spectrum In Adobe After Effects

[@keremsabuncumusic]

Such a short and sweet tutorial which gives us a dope looking spectrum! Thanks m8...

[@MotionArrayTutorials]

Any time Kerem! Happy it was what you were looking for 😄

[@ranita110]

Your tutorials are so well explained. :)

[@MotionArrayTutorials]

Thank you Erika

[@tamiryosef717]

LOL i learned to do it today! such a coincidence to see you making a video on it the same day :P btw, the cut of creating a solid is placed twice :P

[@MotionArrayTutorials]

Thanks Tamork! Good eye. We're glad we ran into you even though you already learned the technique! Cheers!

[@prohatsounds2830]

This was fun! I love the templates, but learning how to cook from scratch is what's up. Thanks for the videos!!

[@thecupcakefoxblog]

woooh it's a bit advanced for me but I you are clear enough that I can follow along. I've owned after effects for years but have used it 0 times.

[@switchlyrics.]

The best tutorial ,i like it

[@makefutur]

At 0:30 you repeated yourself with the ‘spectrum 1’ step was that an accident?

[@Aruuforeal]

its an editing error

[@harrybellingham98]

damn that messed me up

[@LyricLounge]

I loved this tutorial so much that I downloaded it!

[@recovered_file]

Thank you so much. Can we make the same thing but just with « lines » instead of solid ? A more minimalist style

[@PatAudio]

Thanks for your share 😊

[@ZFDyt]

Thank you! created an outro using your tutorial!!

[@MotionArrayTutorials]

Awesome! So happy we could help!

[@pcusing4195]

Hey great tuto!!! Im facing some issue, spectrum color is displayed as white even I using black color for it. Any solution? Nvm it cant be fixed...

[@4MUSIC4U]

Very useful tutorial... I did what you said but the audio is scattered after exporting to avi. Why?

[@simoneramarro8926]

When I generate the audio spectrum the "start frequency" and "stop frequency" are not present...you guys know why?

[@middlebryan9448]

Nice !!

[@MotionArrayTutorials]

Cheers! Thanks!

[@noelangellodezilva6329]

Hey can you do a video to make a spectrum with a half curve like the ones I recent nightcores?

[@MotionArrayTutorials]

Ooh, that would be really interesting. I'd love to do something like that, I'll see if we can make it happen

[@MadGenious]

I'm looping an Audio and the Spectrum stops after the Original Cycle is done, it does not follow any oof the Looped Cycles. I looped the audio using LoopOut() script in TimeRemap. Any Solutions?

[@НеразгаданныеТайны]

Большое спасибо!

[@MotionArrayTutorials]

Пожалуйста! Спасибо!

[@chimitchylecra]

thank you !

[@MotionArrayTutorials]

Cheers!

[@vincentwang2310]

How did you move the preview indicator at the end?

[@ashishashram4273]

with I= in and o=out shortcuts

[@nn-rg2yr]

hello, may i know if one spectrum can be used for multiple songs?

[@MotionArrayTutorials]

Absolutely 😄 you might have to get creative with the copy / pasting of compositions but it is absolutely possible

[@nn-rg2yr]

@@MotionArrayTutorials thank you!! 😃

[@pietrozuccotti3002]

how to export spectrogram in png without background?

[@MotionArrayTutorials]

Hi Pietro! In Ae you can export without a Background by exporting with alpha channel. I show it more in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hoa8m56woc19kJI

[@carlotaolivierg]

How do you move this to Premiere Pro? So that I could add it to a video?

[@MotionArrayTutorials]

If you're on the creative cloud which supports dynamic linking simply drag and drop the Ae project file into your Pr project or timeline :D

[@carlotaolivierg]

@@MotionArrayTutorials Thanks a lot, that really helped!

[@sanielight]

It works and all but then the audio suddenly turn into slow motion? do you know why?

[@MotionArrayTutorials]

Hi San! Yes the entire playback slows down until it's rendered through at least once (you should see a color bar generating at the top of the composition timeline). Once it's played through once entirely it will playback at normal speed.

[@MotionArrayTutorials]

Or you could just set a new beginning and end marker ("b" and "n" keys) and your rendering will only take place in that smaller area when you hit play.

[@sanielight]

@@MotionArrayTutorials Oh! Thank you for the detailed information! I will check that out! Keep up the awesome tutorials! :)

[@bridges_sgv]

@@sanielight It could also be because of RAM. If your computer can't process fast, it will sound like slo-mo. It will also have a message that says "no real time" in red on the right somewhere

[@mooshmanplays]

I'm having some problems with the audio.. it will get to a certain point in the song the just stops. I set the length of the video to the length of the song. if somebody know a way around this problem please tell me

[@MotionArrayTutorials]

Hi Moosh, oh interesting. I've never come across that specific problem before. My only guess is that the composition length that your audio track is in is shorter than the length of the composition your audio spectrum is in. Hard to say without seeing the project file though. Shoot, now I'm curious myself.

[@mooshmanplays]

@@MotionArrayTutorials if you have Discord I could send a video of the problem. My Discord username: MooshManPlays #8115

[@blueknight_live]

MY Comp is only playing 15 seconds of the 3.5 minute song. Any reason why?

[@AbsoluteDaycore]

I have a question -- is it normal for a 4 minute video with just an audio spectrum to take up 70+ gb of space after rendered?

[@luculucuankuy]

what ur output format? .mov? render it in media encoder and choose .mp4 format

[@viratvicky7716]

awsome

[@dinokivericfilms]

Yes!!!

[@MotionArrayTutorials]

:D

[@MotionArrayTutorials]

You got it! The secret is out! 😄

[@my_lisoo_world6900]

[@Ghost-di3kk]

I cant see my second layer only the first even when I change the colour of the spectrum

[@Firetonez]

Did you increase the Maximum Height of the second layer?

[@prodxbydev]

Why is my audio mute?

[@11305205219]

u click the sound icon kzbin.info/www/bejne/m6O5aXudadOFgrM

[@mohamedshehata1]

Click on what to Duplicate it ?

[@MotionArrayTutorials]

Hi Mohamed, you can click on the layer itself, either the color rectangle or words on your panel in the bottom left. Pressing Control (or) Command + D will then duplicate it

[@mohamedshehata1]

@@MotionArrayTutorials thx

[@someofficialBS]

Hey there, I don`t want to waste anyone's time here so I`ll skip to it. I am having a couple problems. One problem is with Adobe After Effects. The second problem is my IMac. I took a quick video to provide better understanding of my problems. If I post this anywhere then I feel like someone in the comments, group (if facebook) or video itself (if youtube) showed potential of helping me resolve my issues. I don`t mean to step on toes and take any viewers from anyone. I am legitimately seeking help. I open with my Adobe issues. My Mac issues begin at 3:03 into the video (roughly) Please let me know how I can fix these issues!!! kzbin.info/www/bejne/fH7NgIZvpKuAsM0

[@harrybellingham98]

good tut but lacking explaination in some areas. after tweaking and watching other tuts it's ok

[@majo.gn4]

Yes, I'll make sure I set the solid to comp size. Pinky swear.

[@tiffanyxx23]

pretty sure you said the same instructions twice when you were making the solid layer. it threw me off. not sure how all that's "clear" as the comments claim...

[@AndroidGamingApps]

Yeah that left me like what the actual f*ck

[@MotionArrayTutorials]

Sorry for the confusion, sounds like you figured it out. Hope the rest was pretty clear.

[@kiro665]

NO ICEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Glad you liked it! 😄
