The shortest path

Your first SoundX track in four steps.

Once SoundX is installed, use these four steps to place your first sound.

  1. 1
    Open SoundX

    After installation, open Window → UXP Plugins → SoundX in Premiere.

  2. 2
    Sign in once

    Use your mobile number and the six-digit code sent by an available channel.

  3. 3
    Choose with your ears

    Search, press Play, and click the waveform to hear another moment.

  4. 4
    Place it at the playhead

    Move Premiere’s playhead, then press +Timeline. SoundX adds a new audio track there.

01 / OPEN

Keep SoundX next to the timeline.

After installing the CCX through Creative Cloud Desktop, open SoundX from Premiere’s UXP Plugins menu. Dock the panel where it stays visible without covering your edit.

  • Use Premiere Pro 25.6 or newer.
  • A tall, narrow panel gives track cards and filters enough room.
  • Your active sequence and playhead determine where audio is placed.

02 / ACCOUNT

Sign in with the mobile number you used for SoundX.

Open Account, choose an available delivery method, and enter the six-digit verification code. Preview, Favorites, and Timeline actions use this account.

You do not create a password inside the plugin. Your session is restored securely when you reopen Premiere.

03 / DISCOVER

Start broad, then narrow the library.

Pick Music, Melodies, or SFX first. Search by a useful idea—such as mood, instrument, or action—then use only the filters that improve the result.

1Choose a libraryMusic for full tracks and stems, Melodies for instrument-led phrases, SFX for precise actions and ambience.
2Describe what you need“Tense cinematic”, “soft piano”, or “door close” is more useful than a long sentence.
3Filter and sortUse genre, mood, instrument, BPM, key, category, or duration where they apply; then sort the results.

Listen before you commit.

Press Play on a result. While it is playing, click or drag along the waveform to jump to another moment. This is the fastest way to check an intro, rise, drop, or ending.

06 / STEMS

Use only the layers your edit needs.

When a music track includes Stems, open the Stems drawer and keep the layers you want. SoundX places every selected layer on its own track, all starting at the same playhead position.

+

All selected stems are added as one operation, so their timing stays aligned.
