Hi everyone!
Good news! I'm happy to share that we just released Storyline 360 (Build 3.81.31200.0), which includes a feature to control the background audio for each slide using triggers to play, pause, or stop the playlist.
This was highly requested, so we hope it serves you in your course creation! If you run into any snags, don't hesitate to contact our team in a support case.
Hi!
I want to start by saying that this feature is so cool! I'm excited about how this is transforming the feel of our courses.
I am having some trouble with the volume, though. Even when I set the "lower background audio volume when slide audio plays" to 100%, it still plays loudly in the background and competes with the slide narration. Is this a known bug?
Hi Meagan,
Happy to help!
You'll want to set the volume of the background audio to 0% instead if you'd like to mute it when slide audio plays.
The lower the value in the box highlighted in the screenshot is, the softer the background audio becomes.
Let me know if this works for you!
Hi Joe,
That's what I've tried, but it isn't muting the background audio. No matter what I set the percentage to, it doesn't get any quieter than a slight reduction in normal volume. It also resets to full volume when the song changes.
