Captivate developers have been able to add background audio to their projects since Captivate was known as RoboDemo. The process of adding background audio hasn't changed much over the years. In Adobe Captivate 5, you simply choose Audio > Import to > Background and open the audio file (wav or mp3).

Why is audio narration so powerful?

I created a set of SCORM packages for online training purposes, using Captivate 2017. Last year, using the same programs (slightly older versions), and processes, I published these packages as swf files, and the audio played without any issues. When I publish the same file as SWF/HTML5, the audio plays perfectly.

Nowadays, it’s common to have an express version of software applications or fast-track processes. It reuses images, audio clips, videos, interviews, quizzes, and many more content pieces! In other words, get to the first version as soon as you can, and embellish it afterward. But what about rapid eLearning development?

Take Captivate's closed captions for example.   While Captivate has featured closed captions for years, developers had limited control over how the text looked or where the captions appeared on-screen for the learner.   Adobe has raised the bar quite a bit with Captivate 2017. . How awesome is that?).

Adobe Captivate has been my favorite interactive e-learning tool since the first version way back in 2004. (I I even served as a beta tester for a few versions.). The only challenge with Captivate has been its reputation for having a steep learning curve when compared with other authoring tools. Where will we start?

There’s no video, only limited animation (the kind I can build in Storyline or Captivate), and professional voice talent will be used. Audio Production: 6%. I’ll assume less than that because it’s a conversion and a lot of analysis has already been done with the face-to-face version. Front End Analysis: 9%.
