Add Music or Replace the Audio in a Video on Your Mac

Replace Audio puts a new soundtrack under a video. Choose an audio file, or use the sound from another video, then decide whether it loops to fill the whole video or plays once. A volume slider for the original audio lets you remove it entirely or keep it playing quietly underneath.
