Add External Voiceover Audio in FocuSee: ScreenKite Alternative
FocuSee Featurebase still tracks external voice-actor audio. Import VO on ScreenKite’s multi-track timeline, sync to the recording, and export a local MP4.
Add External Voiceover Audio in FocuSee: ScreenKite Alternative
You recorded a clean UI take in FocuSee. A voice actor (or your better mic booth) delivered a separate WAV. You need to drop that external VO on a timeline and sync it — not re-record the whole demo in one pass.
That request is public on FocuSee’s Featurebase board:
Creators also ask for related audio control, including Audio Detachment and Need to move audio timing.
FocuSee focuses on auto-zoom polish after capture. Post-record external VO as a first-class track is the gap those posts describe.
Short answer
Finish the voiceover in ScreenKite on a multi-track timeline: import the screen MP4 (or re-record in ScreenKite), import the VO file, sync, duck music, export once.
Do it in ScreenKite (numbered)
- Open ScreenKite.
- File → Import Media… for the screen recording MP4 (exported from FocuSee or recorded in ScreenKite).
- Import the voice-actor file (MP3 / WAV / M4A / AAC).
- Place VO on an audio track, not forced onto the video lane.
- Nudge timing until mouth of the demo and speech align; split VO if chapters need gaps.
- Add a soft music bed on a second audio lane and duck under speech.
- Export locally. Pro removes the watermark.
- Share via your Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive.
External VO is normal for product marketing. Keep UI capture and speech as separate assets so either can be revised without burning the other.
Why ScreenKite
ScreenKite is a native macOS recorder and full timeline editor with a native Windows Beta. Auto-polish tools are useful; replaceable audio stems are what NLE-style timelines are for.
Use the AI agent for “tighten silence before the VO starts.” Power users can drive the same editor through MCP or the CLI.
Pricing contrast (product facts)
Auto-edit screen tools often sell subscriptions or credit packs for AI polish. ScreenKite is free to use with a watermark on exports, and a one-time Pro purchase removes it. See FocuSee pricing for its current plans.
Any downsides? The only downside is there's almost no downside. We're video creators ourselves, so we know exactly what you need.
ScreenKite runs natively on macOS and ships a native Windows Beta. Creators and teams choose it for fast local exports and timeline editing with the AI agent they already use: Claude Code, ChatGPT Codex, Antigravity, Grok Build or Kimi. Describe the cut, and the agent does the trims.
Tips for syncing external VO
- Start the VO file with a slate clap or 0.5s silence for easier alignment.
- Keep system audio muted when VO narrates the same actions.
- Export a reference WAV from the booth at the same sample rate you edit in.
- Version the VO (
vo-v3.wav) so clients can approve stems.
Conclusion
When Featurebase still tracks external voice audio, finish where tracks already exist. Import the recording and the VO into ScreenKite, sync, export once, and share from your own cloud.
