ugh, it keeps replacing the sound

This happened especially when working with imported audio clips or custom voiceovers. One key insight I gained is to always make sure that when importing your audio, you place it on a separate track and lock it, preventing CapCut from replacing it accidentally. Another helpful tip is to double-check if the 'auto sound replacement' settings or templates are activated in your project. Some default editing styles automatically swap out audience audio for preset sounds, which can be disabled by custom project settings. When using features like 'Your Name' or other text-to-audio functions, it’s best to insert those elements without overlapping your original audio completely. This technique prevents the app from overriding your primary sound track. If you continuously face problems even after following these steps, try restarting the app or updating it to the latest version, as technical glitches can sometimes cause audio replacement issues. In my experience, patience and methodical checking of each audio layer in CapCut’s timeline helped me regain full control over my sound tracks, allowing me to create videos without unwelcome audio swaps.
