Q: Will TikTok detect the audio if I edit it in Cutflux?

Yes, as long as you export with the original audio. TikTok's auto-detect identifies the song from the audio fingerprint, not from your editor.

Drop a clip. Drop a sound. Hit "snap to beat". Cutflux locks every cut to the music using a real beat tracker, then exports 1080×1920 vertical, ready to upload. Free. No login. No watermark.

Why a real beat tracker matters

Beats aren't on a grid

Real songs have micro-timing, push and pull around the beat. Snapping to a metronome grid creates the "off" feeling. Cutflux detects actual onsets.

Drops feel locked

The drop is what viewers wait for. Cutting on the drop instead of one frame off is the difference between a viral edit and a forgettable one.

No manual markering

You don't have to tap M repeatedly through the song. Detection runs in one pass and the markers appear pre-placed.
