Hi,

I had a co-worker record a slide,  but I forgot to tell her she needed to introduce herself at the beginning. What's the easiest way to have her record an introduction and add it to the beginning of her audio in the slide?

Thanks,

Karen

    Set up your Captivate project with the same audio settings and microphone etc that were used when previously recording the voiceover.

    Open to the slide that needs the audio and double-click the audio file layer on the slide to open the audio clip in the Captivate Slide Audio dialog. 

    Make sure you are on the Edit tab, not the Add/Replace tab.

    Click at the beginning of the clip where you want to insert the extra audio.

    Click the red Record button on the toolbar and record the extra audio.   This should result in the extra audio being added at that point and the rest of the audio being shifted to a later point to make room for it.

    Readjust the timing of any elements on the slide that were synched to appear at points in the audio clip.
