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!

Hello, I see these requests for text-to-speech playback speed are from 2-3 years ago. any progress on this? I don't seem to be able to find any documentation articles that indicate that the player has been enhanced to accommodate this feature. Many thanks, Scott
I have not heard anything about this getting implemented, so I am still waiting. We would really appreciate this feature of slowing down audio, as we have a lot of non English speakers who take our courses.
Yes, adding my voice to this as well. Important aspect of accessibility compliance.
Upvote!
I also have not heard anything on this subject.
Thanks, in advance,

Adding my voice as well, this feature is still highly desired by my team and users.
This is still a need for me and I would really like to see this implemented.
Thanks!
Adding my voice here as well... (for the nth time)
Thanks.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.
- Also adding my request in the bucket for this as well!
Can we get some idea as to when this persistent request might be addressed?
