The draw here is AEJuice's own beat detection algorithm, first built for its Slides creator and reused to place markers straight from an audio layer, with kBar integration included.

What is AEJuice Audio to Markers?

The result is a set of markers you can use to track sound effects, dialog, or music cues.

Is AEJuice Audio to Markers free?

AEJuice Audio to Markers is listed as free in this catalog. AEJuice has promoted the script during limited-time sales, so the licensing and any current offer can change over time.
