Do you know how to adjust speed of audio created by "Text to Speech"?
- 12 months 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 enhanced feature 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.
To take advantage of this update, launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You'll find our step-by-step instructions here!
I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Can you please help? When I add the SSML tags and then preview the voice it reads them along with the rest of the text out loud.
This is what I have entered in:
<speak>What Imperial value adds,<break>services or<break>programs do they use?</speak>
Hello Misty,
Happy to help!
You'll need to specify the duration of the break for the tag to work properly. The correct syntax would be something like this:
<speak>What Imperial value adds,<break time="3s"/>services or<break time="3s"/>programs do they use?</speak>
You can check out this article for more information on the proper formatting of SSML tags!
