Adding more computer voices to Text-to-Speech
- 2 years ago
Hi, everyone!
I have some great news to share. We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 83, we’ve included important fixes and new features!
One enhanced feature we’ve included:
Unlock new possibilities for text-to-speech audio. Use speech synthesis markup language (SSML) to adjust the speaking rate, modify pronunciation, emphasize words, add pauses, and more.
To take advantage of this update, launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You'll find our step-by-step instructions here!
Has there been any movement to adding more realistic sounding text to speech voices? That seems to be the common complaint from my course reviewers, is that the voices are too robotic or not natural sounding.
Hello Paul,
I appreciate you sharing the thoughts of your reviewers!
We're currently monitoring requests for additional editing options with the text-to-speech feature, including humanizing the voices, and I've added your comments to the report. Here's a look into our process:
