Best practice Audio file type

Dec 28, 2018

I have an hour long course that will be running over a network to 1000's of users. I am attempting to decrease the overall file size. Which audio type is "smaller" or better to use between? I noticed in the output file that MP3 appear in the list but WAV do not.

Hello, Valesa. Great question!

[An update to my original sentence] MP3 and WAV are both supported audio file formats in Storyline, and Michael is spot-on!

If you're looking to reduce the published file size, adjusting the quality settings will help. Also, does your file contain any videos? If so, you can host those videos on a third party site and embed them as Web Objects – this will also significantly reduce the overall file size. 

If you'd like a second opinion on the course size before launch, feel free to share it in this discussion or privately in a case here!
