Rise and Audio
Hi there Dave, glad to hear you're checking out Rise!
You can record a voiceover in a labeled graphic interaction. Simply click on the plus icon to edit the label, then click Record Audio at the bottom of the edit panel.
For a blocks lesson, you can record a voiceover in a Multimedia >> Audio block.
Now let's narrow down why you're having trouble recording audio. What browser are you using? These are supported for Rise authoring. Keep in mind Safari does not support audio recording within the browser, so the 'Start Recording' feature is only available in Firefox and Chrome.
Can a participant that is taking a rise course record a voice answer to a question. For example to see how the participant would answer a question using his/her voice?
Hi Kevin
You can create an H5P Voice Recorder activity and embed it into Rise. They work really well. Chrome only, however.
I am also having difficulty with the Audio Block: When I press "start recording" nothing happens, when i press arrow, pre-recorded music plays.
I am using Chrome, and I am able to record audio with no problem in interactive blocks.
I'm hoping for quick help, as I am working on a tight deadline (as I'm sure is the norm for most folks in this industry).
Thanks in advance!
Hi there, Gisela. Here's what I would quickly try before opening a case with my team for more in-depth help:
- Refresh your browser window.
- Delete the audio block and try adding a new one.
- Try in a different supported browser (Firefox, Edge, or latest version of Safari). If you can only use Chrome, try from an incognito window.
If those suggestions don't work, open a case with us and let us know what you've tried!
