Instagram recently announced that it is rolling out a new feature. In addition, it will enable users to incorporate multiple audio tracks into their Reels on a global scale.
Enhanced Creative Control for Instagram Users
Under this update, users have the flexibility to include up to 20 different tracks in a single Reel. Users will need to tap on the “Add to mix” option within the Reel editor in order to integrate a new track into their video. Furthermore, after adding the tracks, users can customize them by trimming them to include only the desired audio portion.
Empowering the Creativity of Instagram Users
In a statement, the company emphasized that the introduction of multitrack audio in Reels aims to provide creators with expanded creative freedom. This feature allows creators to visually align audio with elements, such as text, stickers, and clips. Thus, this will enable them to express their creativity in a manner that resonates with themselves and their audience.
Acknowledgment and Reuse
Instagram will attribute the overall combined track to the creator. As a result, it will enable them to encourage their followers to reuse the unique mix. This simplifies the process for creators. However, it enhances the overall user experience.
Shift in Video Content Strategy
Earlier this month, the head of Instagram, Adom Mosseri reinforced Instagram’s decision to focus on short-form videos over long-form content. He further added, that watching a 10- or 20-minute video results in reduced interaction with friends. In addition, it decreases the visibility of content from friends, and a lower likelihood of sharing the video with a friend. Mosseri explained that the platform will steer clear of long-form videos. This is because it could potentially detract from the core identity of the platform.

In addition, the app centers around connecting people with their friends. With this move, the platform is aligning with its commitment to focusing on short-form videos. Additionally, they are more conducive to facilitating interactions between users. Further, it will promote content sharing within the community.
