Hi
Please am new here

I have questions

I love your templates tho

Does invideo have a software that I will install on my desktop and how do I get it

[nidalhashmi]

I would really appreciate if the automated voices quality and quantity is increased. For example Speechelo has some of the amazing human voices.

[chrispysaid]

One common pitfall is having your voiceover quality and level too low and having your sound effects too high, kinda like the mistakes _this very video_ makes

[TheOriginalAeolwind]

I generally do the soundtrack first, so as I'm loading the scenes I can make sure the track fits

[GK-ecdf]

I am so tired of unnecessary music under training videos, like this one. Not every video needs a music sountrack.
