Adding Narration

You can record yourself talking about each slide. When you advance to the next slide or
build, your timing is recorded as well.

To record a slideshow:

1

If you’re using an external microphone instead of your computer’s built-in microphone,
connect the microphone and use the Sound pane of System Preferences to configure
the input settings.

2

Select the slide on which you want the recording to start.

You don’t have to select the first slide, but a recorded slideshow plays back only from
the first recorded slide.

If you select a skipped slide, recording starts with the nearest previous unskipped slide.

 Open the Document Inspector, click Audio, and click Record.
