We’ve all been there—you generate a stunning AI video, but the footstep sound hits a half-second too late, or the character's lips move like a badly dubbed 70s kung fu movie. While many models are still figuring out how to keep limbs from morphing, Kling AI quietly solved the real problem: getting sound and picture to actually sync up.

Kling 2.6 isn’t just a video generator; it’s a native audio-visual engine. This means it creates the sound and the movement in the same "thought" process. But to get that Hollywood-level precision, you can’t just throw a paragraph at it and hope for the best. You need the kling json prompt structure.

Think of text prompts as shouting directions across a noisy movie set. JSON is handing your lead actor a detailed script with time-coded cues. If you want that door slam to hit exactly at 4.2 seconds, you need that script.

💡 Key Takeaway
  • Native Co-Generation: Kling 2.6 generates video, dialogue, and SFX in a single pass, ensuring frame-accurate timing.
  • Timeline-Based Logic: JSON allows for a "timeline_script" where you can dictate specific actions and sounds at exact timestamps.
  • Character Stability: By using subject references in your JSON, you can maintain identity across multiple 10-second clips.

Section 1: What Makes Kling 2.6 Different?

Kling’s philosophy is "Audio-First." Most Western models generate a silent clip, then use a secondary AI to "watch" the video and guess where the sounds go. Kling 2.6 doesn't guess. It knows.

When you use the kling 2.6 prompt format, you are interacting with a model that has "semantic hearing." It understands that a glass shattering looks a certain way and sounds a certain way simultaneously.

Section 2: Mastering the Timeline Script

This is the killer feature. If you’ve ever pulled your hair out trying to get sound to match action, the timeline_script is your salvation.

Instead of a rambling sentence, you break your video into beats. Each beat is a mini-scene with frame-perfect start and end times.

timeline_beats_formula.json 
"timeline_script": {
  "beats": [
    { "start": 0, "end": 5, "description": "Subject enters, heavy breathing" },
    { "start": 5, "end": 10, "description": "Subject speaks line, lip-sync active" }
  ]
}

Section 3: The JSON Schema Explained

Let’s look at a "Pro" configuration for a complex cyberpunk scene using kling audio sync json.

pro_av_sync_example.json 
{
  "model": "kling-2.6-pro",
  "prompt": "Cyberpunk night market, neon rain, hyper-realistic",
  "duration": 10,
  "aspect_ratio": "16:9",
  "generate_audio": true,
  "timeline_script": {
    "beats": [
      {
        "start": 0, "end": 4.5,
        "description": "A weary vendor arranges glowing blue fruits.",
        "camera": "Low angle tracking shot",
        "audio_cues": "Rain pattering on metal, neon hum"
      },
      {
        "start": 4.5, "end": 10,
        "description": "Vendor looks up and speaks: 'They are fresh today.'",
        "camera": "Cinematic close-up",
        "audio_cues": "Rain continues, dialogue sync"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Section 4: Beginner Workflows

Don’t start by overstuffing. Kling loves Atomic Beats. Keep your actions simple and your timing clear.

⚠️ The Desync Trap

If your audio timestamp says 3s, but your action description is at the end of the prompt, Kling gets confused. Use our PWA's Visual Timeline Builder to drag action blocks around a 10s bar and auto-calculate timestamps.

Audio Sync Precision Guide

Goal JSON Configuration Why it works
Sharp SFX "Loud, sharp metallic thud" Specificity triggers better waveforms.
Natural Voice voice_speed: 0.95 Slower speech allows better mouth articulation.
Multi-Character ["voice_1", "voice_2"] Uses distinct identities for dialogue.

Motion Reference Magic

motion_reference.json 
{
  "subject_reference": { "url": "https://yoursite.com/hero.png", "fidelity": 0.8 },
  "motion_reference": { "url": "https://yoursite.com/dance.mp4" },
  "prompt": "Cinematic 4k, neon city background",
  "mode": "pro"
}

Section 6: The Six-Element Text Method

For quick ideation, use the Six-Element Formula:

  1. Subject (Who?)
  2. Environment (Where?)
  3. Action (What is happening?)
  4. Camera (How are we seeing it?)
  5. Style/Lighting (The mood?)
  6. Negative (What to avoid?)
