Changing Speed of Audio in Articulate Storyline?
- 2 years ago
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!
Hi Fraser,
Thanks for reaching out! This discussion contains some of the details around the accessibility player and in what stages we're addressing our efforts on. Media playback is in the conversation, and I'd be happy to share your thoughts with our team around playback speed.
Also, if you interested and would like to contribute your ideas more personally, feel free to take a look and reach out if you'd like to participate in the beta program!
Hi Ren,
It's great to hear that you guys are taking seriously the request, expressed by many here, to add functionality to control the speed of audio and video. I have made my request almost 1 year ago but I can see that the first suggestion was made 6 years ago. It's about time to show some respect for the customers who patiently wait for the functionality and keep loyal to Storyline.
From my perspective, I would expect Articulate to provide this in two places:
1. For the audio in the narration of the slides;
2. For the videos we embed on the slides.
If I may suggest, I think you should try to implement something similar to the most used, YouTube. This will make it easier for our learners to adapt to the new features intuitively because they already know them.
Please keep us posted on the developments.
Regards
Rodrigo
