On TikTok the song is the post. Give it something to look at.
TikTok is where a track gets discovered by people who were not looking for you. A visualizer gives the sound a face — your artwork, moving with the audio, at the size TikTok expects.
Upload the song, drop in the cover, export a 9:16 MP4. Nothing to install.
1080 × 1920, up to 20 seconds — long enough to establish the hook, short enough to loop.
Why TikTok is different
Sound-first, not artist-first.
On Instagram, most people watching already follow you. On TikTok, most do not — the audio is the thing being discovered, and your post is one of many using it. That changes what the video is for. It is not an announcement to an existing audience; it is the first impression of a sound, and often the first time anyone sees your name.
Practically, that means the visual has to carry identity fast. The artist name and title should be readable in the first frame, not revealed at the end, because a viewer who likes the sound needs to know whose it is before they swipe. And it has to work muted, because plenty of scrolling happens with the sound off until something holds attention.
The motion in the video comes from your actual track, not from AI guessing at a beat. And it stays short on purpose — 20 seconds at most — because a sound-first discovery clip is a hook, not a full listen.
How it works
Three steps.
Upload the track
Pick the section you want people to hear. TrackVis builds a waveform from the actual audio, so the motion follows that section.
Make it yours
Add your cover art, set artist name and title in type that reads at phone size, choose the motion.
Export 9:16
Download a 1080 × 1920 MP4 and upload it to TikTok.
Features
What matters on TikTok.
The visual follows the sound
Waveform and motion are driven by the track itself, so the moment that makes the song good is also the moment the video moves.
Native 1080 × 1920
Full-frame vertical, no bars, no upscale, no aspect ratio warning at upload.
Readable while muted
Text with outlines and backgrounds stays legible over busy artwork — which is what a silent autoplay scroll needs.
Name and title up front
Text layers are part of the design, so identity can sit in the composition from frame one rather than arriving at the end.
Fast enough to post more than once
Different sections, different templates, same song. Multiple clips per release is a normal TikTok strategy and this is built to make that cheap.
Nothing is AI-generated
Your artwork and your audio drive the video — nothing is invented from a prompt. Stock imagery is there if you want it (Pexels search is built in), but it is your choice, not the default.
Flat pricing, no watermark tax
Free to try means an actual export. Paid plans are $9 a month or $2 a video — and the price is the price, whatever the song is.
TikTok specs
What TikTok wants.
TikTok allows much longer uploads. TrackVis stays capped at 20 seconds because a discovery clip is a hook — the part someone hears before deciding to keep watching, not the whole song.
FAQ
TikTok questions.
What size is a TikTok video?
9:16 at 1080 × 1920. TrackVis exports exactly that in the vertical format, so the file is ready to upload with no resizing.
How long should a music visualizer be for TikTok?
Short. TrackVis caps at 20 seconds, and for a first impression of a song that is usually plenty — it loops, so a clip that ends near where it started gets watched more than once.
Should I post the same visualizer more than once?
Posting several clips from one song is normal on TikTok — different section, different look. Because a TrackVis project can be re-exported with a new template or a different part of the track, making the second and third clip costs much less than the first.
Will my song get added to TikTok's sound library?
That comes from your distributor, not from the video. TrackVis makes the visual; the audio you upload plays as part of the MP4.
Does the video need to work without sound?
It helps. A lot of scrolling is muted until something holds attention, which is why the artwork and the text carry the identity rather than relying on the audio alone.
Can I use it for an unreleased track?
Yes. Nothing is published by TrackVis — you upload audio, you download an MP4, and you decide where it goes.
Is this an AI-generated visualizer?
No. The waveform and motion come directly from the track you upload. Nothing is generated by AI. Stock imagery is available via the built-in Pexels search if you want it, but the motion always comes from your track.
