Sped up, nightcore or same key
| Preset | Speed | Pitch | Sounds like |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sped up | 125% | ≈ +3.9 semitones | the sped up versions on TikTok and Reels |
| Nightcore | 130% | ≈ +4.5 semitones | bright, energetic, a touch of reverb and bass |
| Sped up, same key | 120% | unchanged | the same song, just faster — good for practice and workouts |
| TikTok fast | 140% | ≈ +5.8 semitones | very high, chipmunk-adjacent edits |
Sped up edits usually sit between 115% and 135%. Past 140% most voices start to sound cartoonish — which can be the point.
What is nightcore?
Nightcore is a sped up remix style: the song plays around 125–135% faster with the pitch raised, often with a little extra bass and reverb. The name comes from a Norwegian duo who made the first nightcore edits in the early 2000s. Our Nightcore preset is a good starting point — adjust the speed until it feels right.
