Creating Videos

Start of with choosing any song you want to transform into nightcore.

Editing the Audio

Once you've downloaded your chosen song, you'll need to use audio editing software such as Audacity, FL Studio, or even online tools to transform it into Nightcore.

In order to make a song nightcore, some creators will increase the tempo and pitch whereas others will just change the speed, here is some guidance on how you can do either option. You can experiment with both methods for each song and see which sounds best to you.

Increasing Speed

Audacity

  • Import the song into Audacity.

  • Select the entire track.

  • Go to Effect > Change Speed and increase the speed by about 15-30%.

FL Studio

  • Import the song.

  • Use the Time Stretch control to increase the tempo without affecting the pitch.

Export the Track: Save your edited track in your desired format (e.g., MP3, WAV).

Increasing Tempo and Pitch

Audacity

  • Import the song into Audacity.

  • Select the entire track.

  • Go to Effect > Change Tempo and increase the tempo by about 10-30%.

  • Go to Effect > Change Pitch and increase the pitch by a corresponding amount to avoid distorting the song too much.

FL Studio

  • Import the song.

  • Use the Time Stretch and Pitch Shift controls to increase tempo and (not recommended) pitch simultaneously.

Export the Track: Save your edited track in your desired format (e.g., MP3, WAV).

Adding Visuals

For sharing on platforms like YouTube, add visuals such as anime artwork.

You can use video editing software to add visuals to your nightcore track, we recommend using one of the following:

  • Capcut

  • DaVinci Resolve

  • Adobe After Effects
