<Audio> from @remotion/media✅ v4.0.520✅ v4.0.357✅ v4.0.523
<Video> from @remotion/media✅ v4.0.520✅ v4.0.357✅ v4.0.523

Values between 0.01 and 2 are accepted, where 1 represents the original pitch. Values less than 1 will decrease the pitch, while values greater than 1 will increase it.

A toneFrequency of 0.5 would lower the pitch by half, and a toneFrequency of 1.5 would increase the pitch by 50%.

The value must stay constant for each audio or video asset. Animating or keyframing toneFrequency is not supported.

MyComp.tsx
import {Audio} from '@remotion/media'; import {staticFile} from 'remotion'; export const MyComposition = () => { return ( <> <div>Hello World!</div> <Audio src={staticFile('audio.mp3')} toneFrequency={0.8} /> </> ); };
