By the far the most user friendly software to use.
As a housewife at home looking to start a YouTube channel for fun with absolutely zero editing experience, it was so easy for me to teach myself via their YouTube channel. It takes the tediousness out of editing and encourages creativity. As long as Kapwing is around, I will be using their software.

Love this site.
As an English Foreign Language Teacher, this site helps me to quickly subtitle interesting videos that I can use in class. The students love the videos, and the subtitles really help them to learn new vocabulary as well as better understand and follow the video.

Excellent subtitling features
[It] works perfectly for me. Have been using Kapwing for a year or so, and their automatic subtitle tool gets better and better every week, it's rare that I have to correct a word. Keep up the good work!

Best online video service ever. And a miracle for deaf people.
[Subtitler] is able to autogenerate subtitles for video in almost any language. I'm deaf (or almost deaf, to be correct) and thanks to Kapwing I'm now able understand and react on videos from my friends :)

How to equalize audio with Kapwing

To equalize an audio track, upload your file to the Kapwing studio. Then select the audio track in the timeline and click "Auto Level Volume" in the right-hand sidebar. Your audio will automatically normalize. From there, click to apply any of Kapwing's other audio-enhancing tools, including Clean Audio, Enhance Vocals, and Filler Word Removal, or click "Export Project" to download your normalized audio file.

Can I normalize audio on my phone?

Yes, Kapwing's audio equalizer works entirely in your browser, so you can use it from any device, including Mac, PC, iPad, and Android. Just open the Kapwing studio on your mobile browser, then click to upload your audio file. Select the audio by tapping on it in the timeline, then click "Auto Level Volume" to automatically equalize the volume.

Can I use Kapwing to enhance my audio in other ways?

Absolutely, the Kapwing studio offers a range of professional audio enhancement tools, including background noise removal, vocal track splitting, silence removal, and voice quality improvement. These tools are powered by AI and work in one click, without requiring audio editing skills.

What is an audio equalizer?

An audio equalizer (EQ) is a tool that allows you to adjust the volume on your audio tracks to produce polished, studio-quality sound. Kapwing's audio equalizer works with a single click, normalizing volume across the entire track and fixing overly loud individual microphones.

What audio file formats does Kapwing support?

Kapwing supports a wide range of popular file types for audio, including MP3, WAV, MKV, WebM, FLAC, and OGG. Note that audio exports in Kapwing will always be MP3, as we feel this format represents the best tradeoff between file size and quality.

What should I do if parts of my audio still sound too quiet or too loud?

Even after using auto-leveling, some sections may need manual adjustment. You can split the track in Kapwing’s timeline and apply volume changes to specific clips, or stack multiple enhancements like noise reduction or compression.

Should I normalize my audio before or after editing?

For best results, normalize before further editing. This gives you a consistent base to work from before trimming, adding effects, or syncing with video.

Can I add background music or sound effects after equalizing my audio?

Yes, once your main audio is balanced, you can add music tracks, ambient sounds, or effects using Kapwing’s audio editor.
