Instagram users are already addicted by all kind of voice effects.

Why not also add dubbing to your Instagram Reel videos ?

In this article, you’ll learn how to use Instagram's dubbing filter effectively, and how to leverage AI tools to create high-quality dubbed videos.

Why Dub Your Instagram Videos

There's not only subtitling features on Instagram. You can also add voice over, dubbing and other voice effects. Here's why use them :

  • Portray Characters Better Dubbing can help you portray characters and deliver your message in a fun way. You can convey emotions and storytelling through mixing dubbing and voice over, that's one way to get viral.
  • Enhance Engagement : Dubbed videos can keep your viewers engaged. When your audience can understand the audio clearly, they are more likely to watch the entire video. This can lead to higher retention rates and more interaction.
  • Eliminate Reading Struggles :Dubbing removes the need for viewers to read subtitles, which can be difficult in fast-paced videos. This allows viewers to fully enjoy the visual elements of your video without shifting their focus between the visuals and the text.

How to Use Instagram Dubbing Filter

The Instagram dubbing filter is a tool that allows you to add voiceovers to your videos. This feature is available for both Instagram Stories and Reels. Using this filter, you can record your voice or use pre-recorded audio to dub your videos.

Here's how it works :

1. Access the Feature

To start, open the Instagram app on your phone. Tap the "+" icon at the bottom of the screen to create a new Story or Reel. This will open the camera interface where you can either record a new video or select an existing one from your gallery. Once you have your video ready, tap the music note icon at the top of the screen to access the audio options​.

2. Choose the Voiceover Option

On the audio screen, you will see various options, including music, sound effects, and voice effects. Select the "Voiceover" option. This feature allows you to record your voice over the video. You can use this to narrate your video, add commentary, or translate the dialogue into another language.

3. Record Your Voiceover

Press and hold the record button to start recording your voiceover. Speak clearly and try to match your voiceover with the visual cues in your video. You can re-record if you make any mistakes until you are satisfied with the result. Instagram also offers various voice effects that you can apply to your recording to make it sound more engaging or to fit the theme of your video​

4. Edit and Preview

After recording your voiceover, you can use Instagram's editing tools to adjust the volume and add any necessary sound effects. You can also trim the audio to ensure it matches perfectly with the video length. Preview the video to ensure that the dubbing is synchronized correctly.

5. Finalize and Share

Once you are happy with your dubbed video, tap "Next" to proceed. Here, you can add captions, stickers, and other effects to enhance your video further. Finally, tap "Share" to post your dubbed video to your Instagram Story or Reel. You can also save it to your device for future use​​.
