The update, in brief

The September roundup adds caption presets and animations, AI-generated background music and sound effects, and scheduled recording rooms that authorized guests can enter without the host. It covers several updates rather than one software version.

What’s new

  • 18 new caption presets and 10 new animations.
  • Choose a duration when generating music or sound effects.
  • Let permitted viewers and drive members start a scheduled room without the host.

Availability details

AI background music requires Descript 145.0.15 or later. Guests can start a scheduled recording room only when the host allows it in room settings.
