Can you make voices sound more expressive (i.e. angry) using SSML?

Jan 25, 2024

Hi there, just exploring using the text-to-speech feature and was wondering if you can make the voice more expressive (i.e. angry, happy, excited) using SSML? Any tips and tricks? I can't seem to find many examples of how to create emotions using SSML

Hi Nana, 

You can check out this article if you'd like to see some examples of how to use supported SSML tags in Storyline 360: 

You'll need to use a combination of these tags to get the expression that you need, such as emphasizing certain words in a sentence, controlling volume, speaking rate, and pitch, etc. If you have some examples of text that you're working on, feel free to post them here so our talented community members can help you out!
