when recording in presenter there is no sound being recorded

Jan 16, 2014

My microphone is working when recording in replay, but I can't get the audio to have any sound when recording in presenter. I've tried everythingI can think of.  Can you help?

Hi Lynn,

If I recall correctly, you're using Presenter '13, right?

If you're unable to record narration in Articulate Presenter, confirm that your PowerPoint presentation is located on your local hard drive (typically your C: drive). Working on a network drive or an external USB drive can cause erratic behavior.

If the issue persists on your local hard drive, see if you're able to record via PowerPoint:

  • PowerPoint 2013: Go to the Insert tab, click Audio, and choose Record Audio.
  • PowerPoint 2010: Go to the Insert tab, click Audio, and choose Record Audio.
  • PowerPoint 2007: Go to the Slide Show tab, and click Record Narration.

It sounds like you've already tested your mic in Replay, we just need to make sure that your mic is communicating with PowerPoint correctly. 

Let me know if you're able to hear the narration recorded using that method.

Thanks!
