FAQ

Karaoke captions: common questions

What are karaoke captions?

Subtitles where the full line is visible and each word changes colour as it's spoken, like karaoke lyrics. Viewers can read ahead and still follow the voice.

How do I make karaoke captions?

Upload your video to GetNixa, click Generate, then pick a karaoke style and set the fill colour. The timing comes from your voice, so there's nothing to keyframe.

Is it free?

The Free plan gives you 30 minutes a month and 12 templates to try. Karaoke fill styles are part of the full template library on the Creator, Pro and Studio plans.

Karaoke or word-pop captions: which is better?

Karaoke suits longer talking and podcast clips because the whole line stays on screen. Word pops suit fast hooks and short tips.

Can I fix a word or change the look?

Yes. Double-click any word to fix it, pick from 100+ templates, and change colours, fonts, position and animation.
