How to Add Music to Your 360 Photo Booth Videos
A silent 360 video gets skipped; the same clip with a beat-drop timed to the slow-mo gets reposted. Here's how to soundtrack every video automatically.
Quick answer: Save your track as .mp3 or .m4a in Apple's Files app, import it in BoothLab's settings, and every video renders with the music baked in — timed against your slow-mo range, with no per-video editing.
Supported formats and where files go
BoothLab imports audio directly from the Files app — save your tracks there (iCloud Drive or On My iPhone both work) in .mp3 or .m4a format for the best compatibility. Streaming-service songs (Spotify, Apple Music) are DRM-protected and can't be imported; use tracks you own or royalty-free music.
Add a track in BoothLab
- Save the MP3 to the Files app on the iPhone running your booth.
- In BoothLab, open your event settings and choose import music from audio files.
- Pick the track — it's now stitched into every video the booth produces at that event.
- Record a test spin and check where the beat lands against your slow-mo window.
Timing the drop to the slow motion
The trick that makes videos feel edited: line the song's drop up with the start of the slow-mo. If your slow-mo starts at second 1, trim your MP3 so the drop hits about a second in. One minute in any audio editor, and every video that night lands like a produced edit.
Picking event-safe music
- Weddings: ask the couple for "their song" — an instant personal touch that costs nothing.
- Corporate: use royalty-free libraries (Artlist, Epidemic Sound) so the client can repost clips commercially.
- Parties: current chart hooks work, but keep a clean-lyrics version loaded for family events.
Because the music is part of your event preset, switching clients means swapping one file — the rest of your branded pipeline (overlays, intros, outros) stays untouched.
Soundtrack every spin automatically
