Step-by-Step slides for Software Simulation - Can I add Narration?

Jun 10, 2016

I don't have AS2 yet but will soon.  I plan to create several software "simulations" using step-by-step slides.  Is it possible to add audio to each step so that I can guide the users?  Thanks.

Hi Malcolm!  Welcome to E-Learning Heroes!

Yes, you can certainly add audio (or whatever else you'd like) to your step by step slides from a screen recording!  Here's an article from the Storyline 2 User Guide about inserting a screen recording and the ways you can do that.  You'll see that they can either view or try the simulation in step by step slides (or both if you decide to recycle the screen recording!).  Then for each slide, you'll add audio by recording from your microphone.

Happy creating!

Hi, Malcolm -- Thanks for reaching out, and in addition to Crystal's great suggestions, I thought I might also share links to similar discussions here and here if you'd like to take a look. 

And as you mentioned you will be using SL2 shortly, perhaps you may find the following resources to be of assistance, as well:

Please say the word if you need anything further!
