During our live, online Articulate Storyline Beginner classes , we teach students how to import and record voiceover audio. The most common question we get about voiceover audio is “Can Storyline convert text to audio files?”     Before using Text-to-Speech, I suggest a little pre-work.

We use graphics instead of text to spark our learners’ interest, we incorporate interactivity to keep them engaged, and we add video and audio to bring life to our courses. Captivate has a feature, though, that makes adding the spoken word much easier: Text-to-Speech.

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.

I know I can change the agent via the Audio menu after the audio has been created. Now the agent is selected for me.

This is how you start to think about voice characters after listening to them through text to speech synthesizers (TTS). When Adobe included a text to speech application in Captivate 4, I began to think that TTS might be a viable option in certain situations. TEXT TO SPEECH SYNTHESIZERS. NaturalSoft.

  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). Once the text to speech software has been installed, converting text to speech is a snap.
