Audio Fade in and out
Is there a way to have audio fade in and out in Storyline? I find that the audio transition from slide to slide sounds kind of choppy without a fade.
Thanks,
Mandaly

I also echo everyone's sentiments. I use Vyond to create animations to add into my Storyline and Rise courses and they have an awesome fade feature. It would be great if you can add this feature to Storyline!

Audio fade in and out already exists in PowerPoint... not sure why not here. Also, please add PowerPoint path editing tools (merge, exclude, etc.)!

Storyline is not Powerpoint. If you prefer Powerpoint, use it...and use tools like iSpring to add elearning elements to Powerpoint. If enough users bail Articulate might wake up. If users stay apparently Articulate somehow does something right, why else would they stay ;-)

I want the audio fade in out feature.

You could add an API or some other interface that would allow the user to open the audio file in an audio editor. So, a setting would allow user to associate audio files with one of a selection of editors (ProTools, Audacity,etc.). Then, within Storline 360, the user right clicks / "Edit in Audio Editor" to open in the associated audio editor. Then when they save and close the editor it updates the file in Storline 360.

Yes, please. I have to export the audio clip to my DAW to add the fade-in, then import it back to storyline. Even the consumer level, Adobe Elements has Fade-In and Fade-Out audio as stock features.

Ditto, simple fade in and out is critical to starting a slide (fade in) and closing a slide (fade out). Audacity works great outside of Storyline, but basic things like this should be part of the audio editor

Same here! Fade in and out would be great! This would be especially useful in a situation like the one I'm in currently where my VO introduces a video that auto plays. The video causes a startle reaction in learners bc of the embedded music in it.

I was able to fade out the audio in the editor using David's aforementioned manual technique. I had a similar issue as Julie, but it helped me to expand the audio by zooming in to about 500%, that way the section(s) I was editing was much more granular. That being said, would love a fade in/out feature in the audio editor, or the capability to manually manipulate the audio volume/video opacity linearly, like in Premier Pro.
