When creating an eLearning project, sometimes you want to insert an audio file to make it more interesting and engaging. For instance, when you voice your project over and insert the background music, you may want to decrease the background music while increase the volume of your voice sometimes, and vice versa. You may also want to change your voice volume where it’s too either loud or small. In this article, I will explain in detail steps of how to change audio volume with ActivePresenter.
