Remix a Song using Beat Swap

Check out Beat Swap, Tuney's revolutionary music creation feature which lets you generate variations and remixes from vocal tracks. You can upload a full song or a vocal stem to generate results across 15 unique genres, powered by Tuney's Artist Sounds. This tutorial explains how to use the feature in detail so you can effortlessly create remixes of your favorite songs!

Uploading Files

Choose between three options when uploading files: connecting to SoundCloud, pasting a Dropbox link or uploading a file.

Connect to SoundCloud

• Through a unique partnership with SoundCloud, you can connect your SoundCloud account to your Tuney account and select any track you have published (or uploaded privately) to your SoundCloud page. Simply click "Connect with SoundCloud" and accept. You will see your SoundCloud tracks listed inside the Tuney app after connecting your account and can select any one of them to get started.

Paste a Dropbox link

• This works with a variety of audio files, as well as MP4 video files (Tuney will extract the audio layer from the video).

Upload a file

• This works with a variety of audio files, as well as MP4 video files. Note that high resolution WAV files will take more time to process, as will larger video files.

After you select or upload a file, Tuney will analyze it and extract the vocal if you upload a full song. Confirm the analyzed key and BPM, and select a genre for your remix (you will be able to change this after hearing initial results as well).

NOTE: Beat Swap works best if you upload a full song file with an instrumental, even though we only extract the vocal stem from the uploaded file. The full instrumental is analyzed for key, BPM, form and timing which allows Beat Swap to do a better job of generating new instrumentals or beats that musically match your vocal track.

Reviewing Results

When you first remix your song, Tuney will generate 3 results. If you want to hear the track with a different genre, you can click on "Generate more" and select the genre you want or keep it "Random".

If the vocal and the instrumental are out of alignment, the editing features will allow you to make adjustments.

Editing Features

When you click "Edit" it will open the grid editing view. Here you can adjust the position of the vocal backward or forward in 8th note intervals. You will hear a real time preview as you do so, so you can find the position that sounds the best.

You can also adjust the volume of individual instruments and the vocal to make it sound how you want it.

NOTE: The audio preview you hear when using the real time editing features is not automatically mixed or mastered. This is simply reference audio. Once you make your edits make sure to click "Save Changes" so the track is re-rended with an updated mix and master.

Share and Download

There are several options to share and download your final results.

Upload to SoundCloud

• If your SoundCloud account is connected to Tuney, you can upload the resulting track directly to your SoundCloud account (it will upload in private mode by default)

Other Options

• You can copy a share link, or share the link directly to Facebook or X via the social links.

Save and Download

• Clicking on the heart icon will automatically save the track to your Favorites playlist in the Playlists section.

• You can also add the song to a custom playlist by clicking the three dots […]

• Under the three dots […] you can also download the MP3 or WAV of the track
