Adding more computer voices to Text-to-Speech
- 12 months 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!
I'm interested in this as well. Importing TTS voices would be huge.
My boss is willing to pay $5/month to get a more natural sounding voiceover for our courses. He is also aware that I have to download/import the audio files and manually create the subtitles-- and it is still more important that the voice doesn't sound robotic.
I think this is going to be an ongoing problem as we all learn online post-pandemic.
