How to Include Audio in Blender Video Export

Audio is an essential component when it comes to creating videos in Blender. In this guide, we will walk you through the process of including audio in your video exports.

Enabling Audio in Blender

When you are ready to export your video in Blender, it is crucial to enable the audio to ensure that the sound is included in the final output:

Navigate to the video editing section in Blender.
Select the render engine based on your preferences.
Access the output properties to configure your settings for resolution and frame rate.
Under output, choose your desired folder. In the file format section, select ffmpeg video.
Click on encoding settings to configure video and audio output settings.
In the audio output settings, choose either AAC or MP3 from the drop-down list. For this example, we will select AAC.
Once you have set up the necessary audio settings, you can proceed to render your video by pressing F12 or navigating to render and selecting render animation.

Verifying Audio Inclusion

After rendering your video with audio enabled, it is important to verify that the sound has been successfully included:

Locate the rendered file in your output folder.
Open the file to confirm that the audio is playing correctly.

If no audio is selected during the configuration process, the exported video will be silent. Therefore, ensuring that the audio option is enabled is crucial for a complete viewing experience.

Rendering Audio Only

In addition to including audio in your video exports, Blender also allows you to render audio-only files:

Under render, select render audio.
Choose the location to save the audio file and select the preferred format, such as MP3.
Initiate the audio rendering process, which will quickly generate and save the audio file.

Conclusion

By following these steps, you can effectively include audio in your Blender video exports or extract separate audio files. Whether you are enhancing your videos with sound or creating standalone audio files, Blender provides the flexibility to cater to your multimedia needs.

Remember, audio plays a significant role in engaging your audience and delivering a more comprehensive viewing experience. Experiment with different audio settings in Blender to achieve the desired results and elevate the quality of your video projects.
