I used that project I recorded in Logic last year, and it worked pretty well at first. The only issue was that the video was too short\u2014only about a minute and 40 seconds\u2014while the podcast was much longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10668512\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/740\/2026\/03\/Screenshot-2026-03-19-at-14.52.00-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-996\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10668512\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/740\/2026\/03\/Screenshot-2026-03-19-at-14.52.00-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10668512\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/740\/2026\/03\/Screenshot-2026-03-19-at-14.52.00-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10668512\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/740\/2026\/03\/Screenshot-2026-03-19-at-14.52.00-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10668512\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/740\/2026\/03\/Screenshot-2026-03-19-at-14.52.00-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10668512\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/740\/2026\/03\/Screenshot-2026-03-19-at-14.52.00-2048x1152.png 2048w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10668512\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/740\/2026\/03\/Screenshot-2026-03-19-at-14.52.00-1200x675.png 1200w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10668512\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/740\/2026\/03\/Screenshot-2026-03-19-at-14.52.00-1980x1114.png 1980w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>So instead of cutting anything, I just swapped out the music. I found a 10-minute instrumental on YouTube, and I replaced the original track with that. So now it fits the full length of the podcast, and everything syncs up nicely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10668512\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/740\/2026\/03\/Screenshot-2026-03-19-at-14.54.11-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-997\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10668512\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/740\/2026\/03\/Screenshot-2026-03-19-at-14.54.11-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10668512\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/740\/2026\/03\/Screenshot-2026-03-19-at-14.54.11-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10668512\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/740\/2026\/03\/Screenshot-2026-03-19-at-14.54.11-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10668512\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/740\/2026\/03\/Screenshot-2026-03-19-at-14.54.11-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10668512\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/740\/2026\/03\/Screenshot-2026-03-19-at-14.54.11-2048x1152.png 2048w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10668512\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/740\/2026\/03\/Screenshot-2026-03-19-at-14.54.11-1200x675.png 1200w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10668512\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/740\/2026\/03\/Screenshot-2026-03-19-at-14.54.11-1980x1114.png 1980w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>So what I did was I went on YouTube and I found a 10-minute white screen video that was just a blank background.
