Changing Speed of Audio in Articulate Storyline?
I'm working on creating some Articulate Storyline projects for a class I teach. Our current videos are MUCH less engaging and interactive and are simply the professor in front of a web camera lectu...
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!
Thanks, Susan and Concetta for sharing how this is impacting you and your course design. I know a few of the earlier folks in this discussion mentioned specifically needing more options when using our Text to Speech tools, it sounds like you're like this for any audio you import into Storyline too?
Yes, we need the ability to increase audio speed on audio clips that we add into Articulate Storyline. We have professional narration that we incorporate into our training. While we are not currently using text-to-speech, I can definitely see the need there as well. The ability to increase speed is used significantly in education settings and to re-state my original post, we are being asked about this feature every week. I would love to hear back when we might expect to see this feature released. Thank you!
Thanks, Susan - it's really valuable insight. I'm not able to offer an ETA for this feature, but I've passed along the ideas here to our team. Our team uses the information here to help assess what features should be included in future updates and we'll keep you posted if this one is included in Storyline!
