background music in Storyline
Hi everybody,
Is there any way to insert background music like in Presenter in Storyline?
Thank you
Hi everyone!
I have some great news to share. We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 74, we've included important fixes and new features.
One of the new features we've included is:
- Create immersive experiences with continuous background audio that sets the tone and keeps learners engaged.
Launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer to take advantage of this update, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You'll find our step-by-step instructions here.
Please let me know if you have questions!
Hi. I'm also interested in adding background music to a slide with several layers. The layers are animated like a slideshow (with fade in/fade out animations), but I want the background music to continue across all layers. The only way I have been able to do this is to break the sound up and add it to each layer, but it's choppy... I'm very new to storyline so appreciate any hints if there is a way to make this more fluid.
Thanks!
Hey Sarah! I realize you posted this over a year ago, but I thought I'd chime in nonetheless (and hopefully you've figured this out by now!)
When you build a layer, you can click on the gear to the right of the layer name. This opens the properties menu for that layer. From here, you can de-select the option that says 'Pause Timeline of Base Layer.' This will allow your audio to continue to play as your user advances through the layers.
I hope this is helpful!
