Background Music per Scene
Has anyone found a work around to have the background music play only for certain scenes of a project? I have training projects that I would like to have background music for just the quiz scene for...
Hi everyone!
Good news! I'm happy to share that we just released Storyline 360 (Build 3.81.31200.0), which includes a feature to control the background audio for each slide using triggers to play, pause, or stop the playlist.
This was highly requested, so we hope it serves you in your course creation! If you run into any snags, don't hesitate to contact our team in a support case.
I have a playlist for my background audio and i have the setting selected that the audio lowers by 90% when my current slide audio is playing, but the background audio still seems too loud. I still want the background audio to play, just not that loud so the user can still hear it faded in the back. I've updated it to 99% lowered and its still too loud. I've tried it all, but nothing seems to work to make it less loud. I've tried 50% and that was WAY too loud.
At this point, I am having to raise my slide audio volume so that its louder than the background.
Any suggestions?
Hello Julia!
It seems like all of the background audio is too loud and not just one specific audio file. Are you noticing this behavior while editing your course in Storyline 360 or in the published output too?
I've tested this on my end, but I am not having any issues with the volume of the background audio being too loud. Is it possible that you could share your .story file so I can better understand what you're experiencing? You can share it privately in a support case or in this discussion.
I know this is old but I came across this issue too and so was testing while looking on here for an answer. The wording is a little confusing, but in testing I found the percentage isn't the amount you want to lower it by, but the amount to. So if you want it really quiet, you put 1% instead of 99%.
