### Combining Nodes

Audio nodes are designed to feed into the rest of your workflow. Here are some common combinations:

* Voice → Combine Audio & Video: Generate a voiceover and layer it onto an AI-generated video.
* Music → Combine Audio & Video: Create a custom soundtrack and pair it with a product video or brand reel.
* Sound Effects → Combine Audio & Video: Add ambient sounds or action effects to animated scenes.
* Voice → Lipsync: Generate speech, then use it as the audio input for a Lipsync node to create a talking-head video.
* Text Iterator → Voice: Enter multiple scripts and generate a separate voiceover for each — perfect for multilingual content or personalized outreach.
* Prompt → Music + Prompt → Generate Video → Combine Audio & Video: Create both a video and its soundtrack from text, then merge them into a finished piece.
