There are a lot of arguments about using audio in eLearning – some in favor, some not. Audio narration can be very time consuming, and in many cases requires hiring talent for a professional sound. Many eLearning development tools allow you to easily record narration with your content, including Adobe Presenter and Adobe Captivate.

by Jennie Ruby    I often point out in my classes on  writing eLearning voiceover scripts  that a script is necessary so that when you record the audio you don't skip anything, don't stumble, and don't say "um." In the Slide Notes pane, you click the TTS check box.

  Text-to-Speech (TTS) was one of the coolest new features in Adobe Captivate 4. In the new Captivate 5, TTS is still available but the interface for converting text to speech has changed (like everything else). Click the Text-to-Speech Button. Type some text.

The ability to convert text to speech using Captivate's built-in text to speech agents is awesome. All you need to do is select the slide note(s) you want to convert and then click the Text-to-Speech button. In the image below, notice that I have selected Kate from the Speech Agent drop-down menu.

Hello, I am facing a problem in the Text-To-Speech and close captions functionality. In short: it happens quite often that when I change the TTS sentences and re-arrange the close captions the audio part is scrambled. When I try to re-arrange the TTS audio part and the closed captions some audio sentences are duplicated.
