How to make nightcore and sped up songs

The fast, high, energetic version of a song, the opposite of slowed + reverb. Here are the settings that sound right.

Step by step

  1. Open the Nightcore maker and choose a song.
  2. The nightcore settings are already on. Press Preview with effects to listen.
  3. Adjust it (see below), then Convert and Download the MP3.

Nightcore or sped up?

  1. Nightcore: speed 1.20 to 1.30× with the pitch going up too, so voices sound higher and brighter.
  2. Sped up: speed 1.15 to 1.25× but the pitch kept closer to the original, so the singer still sounds like themselves.

Tips

Songs with a clear beat and a catchy chorus work best. If it gets harsh, lower the Treble a little. Want the opposite? See how to make slowed + reverb songs.
