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!

Good morning,
I have reviewed the TTS update. The quality of the available voices has improved somewhat. "Mathew" seems to be the best selection currently.
Still, to consider using this as part of my production work I feel the audio/voice editor falls short by not providing the ability to control the speed of the speech execution. This is not a minor shortcoming but a necessity.
Thanks for listening.

Hi Don,
Thanks for your feedback and for sharing the additional features you'd like to see in Storyline! We have this logged as a feature request; I see that you're already added to the list for the ability to slow down or speed up the pace of text-to-speech voices. Here's a peek into our process for managing feature requests.
