Can I slow down the audio voice selected in Storyline 360?
I am using one of the audio voice pre-loaded in Storyline 360 and it seems they are all speaking very fast. Is there a way to slow their speech?
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 of the new features 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.
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 need additional help!

New user here. Just created my first course using the voice-over feature. After listening to the preview for the first slide immediately searched for how to slow down the audio and found this Q&A. Joining in on the request...

Hello everyone. I too am a new user and was wondering if there was a way to slow down the audio. Adding my name for the request for being able to adjust the audio in the voice-over feature.

Add me to the list... that started 3 years ago! International learners struggle and the work around is painfully slow if you need CC. Punctuation will appear in the CC text if used to adjust speed, so you only have the direct audio edit method, which gets messy if you need to modify content often.

Can we get some idea as to when this persistent request might be addressed?

Hello Team,
Do we have any additional feature embedded to reduce the speed of the text to speech?

Hey Alyssa Gomez. Any news on this. Its been 4 years that everyone is requesting.
Camtasia has already incorporated the feature of slowing down audio, has Storyline been able to do this yet - DawnWhite-d848aCommunity Member
Hi! Was this ever integrated into the SL360 updates? I want to use text-to-speech but common feedback from learners is that the voice is too fast.
I have used punctuation to slow down the speech between sentences and added silence spaces between points. Unfortunately, when a conversation is mid-point the speech is too fast.- AlvaroRodriguesCommunity Member
Not to mention extremely time-consuming to try o optimize with this type of workaround. It has been a year since I first posted on this topic, and still no solution is in sight. Clearly there is a customer voice here to be taken into account.

Over a year for me as well. It’s brought up every meeting that we have, by customers, to review material that uses storyline txt-to-speech.
