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!

That's what I assumed from the code, but it is not recognizing/playing the file. I have ensured that the name of the file is the exact name of the one in the code.
Yes, this didnt work for me either. Any other suggestions?

I'm not certain that Debbie or Jerson subscribed to this thread, so you may want to PM them for specific help on this. Otherwise, if you need anything else, let us know!
Hi All,
I have NO experience working with code and I would like to have background music play throughout the module. I tried to open the Story.html file in Notepad but it just plays the module...what am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Marie
Hi Marie,
If you're not as comfortable with code, you may want to try the method mentioned by David Anderson in this thread, and you can join in with those who have requested background music as a new feature.
I want to have slide narration with music/sound effects (different file) in the background. The music does not have to continue beyond one slide. I could do that in presenter using playlist for the background music. Is this doable in Storyline?
Hi Christi and welcome to Heroes!
There is not a playlist feature within Storyline, but if you're adding additional audio files to a slide and you'd like them in the background of your narration you can edit the individual audio files and change the volume level:

Hi Christi - you can add more than one audio track to a slide and as Ashley indicated in her post, you can control the volume of each track independently which allows you to lower the volume of the music track.Hey all,
So I want my background music to play from slides 1.9 to 1.11. Is there anyway that you're aware of to set the parameters for when the slide music plays in the background?
Could I separate it out into its own scene and then set the scene as the background music? I suppose I could set this content to auto-advance and manually select the time of the music clips, however I wonder if the transition from slide to slide would feel choppy and weird.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Looking for the same. This is a basic function and should be added by developers in future releases.
Pretty please.
Thank you.
