 Rendering in Synfig does not currently support the inclusion of audio tracks, we therefore render the animation as .png images, and merge them with the audio using the opensource [https://libav.org/download.html avconv] tool. This whole process is likely to be integrated in Synfig in a future release.

 A common alternative is to synchronise your audio and video in a third party video editing software (such as [http://avidemux.sourceforge.net/ avidemux], [http://www.openshot.org/ Openshot], [http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.4/Manual/Sequencer/Usage Blender VSE] or [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_video_editing_software#Free_and_open-source many others]). It is overall more flexible, but very accurate synchronisation is harder to reach.

 In [http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ Audacity], edit your audio to suit your needs (and storyboard), then '''select and label each section that seems relevant''' as an animation reference point (or [[keyframe]] in Synfig) in your audio track.

 Adding a label in Audacity is done via ''Tracks > Add Label at Selection'' (or ({{Shortcut|CTRL+b}})). See this [http://multimedia.journalism.berkeley.edu/tutorials/audacity/adding-labels/|online tutorial] for more details on labelling audio tracks in Audacity. Try to make each label name unique, short and meaningful.

 Importing keyframes is then as simple as running the plug-in from ''> Plug-Ins > Import Audacity Labels as Keyframes''. It will import the labels from the file ''labels.txt'' in the same directory as your Synfig project. Some [https://github.com/berteh/import-audacity-labels-keyframes#configuration options] can be customized, but the default settings will do just fine for this tutorial.

 Set them up in any way you like, or copy that in the screenshot, it consists of:
 * a ball: a circle and curve gradient (pale yellow for the ball, to blue for the background)
 * a floor: a brown rectangle with light rotation

 You can easily refer to the active keyframe name (5) to know where to locate the ball if the name of your audio label was meaningful enough.

 Fine tune the [[interpolation]] type with a right-click on the waypoint to make the animation smoother. We opted for [linear] on bounce, [clamped] on tops and [Ease_In/Out easy in] to slow the rolling ball on the last (exit) waypoint.
