capabilities (to fix mistakes), music and sound-effect options, and the capability to create the file format you require (such as mp3 or WAV).
You need a quiet place to record. Try closing doors, turning off any unnecessary computer equipment, turning off or lowering
lights that might be making noise, and turning off phone ringers, beepers, and pagers. Also, tell coworkers that recording is in progress.
Set audio recording quality
Audio files present the common challenge of balancing quality against size. The higher the sound quality, the larger the file size. When working
with audio, think of your users’ connection speed. In the best development case, experiment to find the optimal balance between sound quality
and file size for your users.
1. In PowerPoint, open a presentation (PPT or PPTX file).
2. Click Adobe Presenter, and in the Tools group, click Settings.
3. In the Presentation menu on the left, click Quality.
4. Select an audio quality level. Remember that a higher quality level results in a larger audio file size.

Bit rate of up to 64 Kbps and sampling frequency of 44 Khz
Bit rate of up to 32 Kbps and sampling frequency of 22 Khz
5. (Optional) If your presentation contains SWF files on consecutive slides, select Disable Preloading Of Embedded Flash Content. This option

Change the audio input source
If you are recording audio for a presentation, you can either use a microphone or the line-in option that is usually included with an external audio
device, such as a tape deck or stereo amplifier.
1. In PowerPoint, open a presentation (PPT or PPTX file).
2. Click Adobe Presenter, and in the Tools group, click Settings.
3. In the Application menu on the left, click Audio Source.
4. In the Audio Input Source area, select either Microphone or Line In.
5. (Optional) Select the Always Prompt To Set Microphone Level Before Recording option if you want to calibrate the microphone before each
recording session. Calibrating is useful if you use different microphones or if you record in different environments (for example, a quiet room
versus an area with background noise).
6. Click OK.
Calibrate microphones for recording
If you are recording audio for a presentation, set the microphone or recording device to the correct recording level. This process is called
calibrating the recording device. Adobe Presenter can detect optimal microphone and recording sensitivity levels automatically.
Adobe Presenter must detect your recording device before calibrating it. Before you calibrate, check that your recording device is connected to
your computer properly and is turned on.
1. In PowerPoint, open a presentation (PPT or PPTX file).
2. Click Adobe Presenter, and in the Audio group, click Record (
).
3. To set the correct recording device level, say the following sentence into the microphone until the red recording window becomes green: “I
am setting my microphone recording level for use with Adobe Presenter.”
4. When you finish, click OK.
Record audio
If you have a microphone connected to your computer, you can record audio for inclusion in a slide. You can use audio for many types of narration
or instruction.
