“I want to do a voice-over on Google Slides. Can I record my voice directly on Google Slides? If not, is there any way available for help?”
No, you can’t record your voice on Google Slides. When you insert audio into your slides, you can only choose files from your Google Drive or files shared with you by others and there is no recording option. Therefore, unlike using PowerPoint or other presentation software, you can’t record audio on Google Slides directly. Instead, you need to record your voice using a third-party audio recorder like SurFlex Screen Recorder, upload the audio recording to your Google Drive, and then insert it into your Google Slides.
To record audio for Google Slides:
- Download and install SurFlex Screen Recorder on your computer.
- Go to Settings to choose the output audio format and quality.
- Choose the audio recording mode and select Microphone.
- Click REC to start recording your voice.
After creating the voice recording, upload the file to your Google Drive, and then go to Google Slides > Insert > Audio to add audio to your slides. By doing so, you can successfully add voice-over to Google Slides.
Alongside SurFlex Screen Recorder, other audio recordings like Audacity and Voice Recorder are also worth trying.
