Mic pickup is very low

Nov 19, 2018

Hi, I've been making a course and have found that the mic sound is very low. I'm having a difficult time figuring what I can do since I can increase the volume by 200%, but that doesn't help a lot especially since I start to pick up a lot of white noise at that point. is there some way that I can edit my microphone settings internal to storyline/articulate so that I can make sure the mic is getting fully used?

Hi Ryan,

May we know the version of Storyline are you using? For Storyline360, the options for microphone settings is under the Insert tab > Audio > Options

Also, have you tried using a different mic/voice recorder and check to see if you're getting better mic pick-up, and just to isolate if the problem is within Storyline, Windows settings, or the microphone itself?

Hey, Ryan!

How's it going?

I don't think Replay does have this same function to adjust mic input levels. However, I think you can adjust the audio level after recording.

But if you prefer to adjust mic sensitivity before recording, I think the work around for this is that you can adjust your mic settings (outside Replay) within the Windows sound settings (task bar or within Control Panel).
