PPT with sound templates

[Byron Shirley]

I am trying to design my first PPT with sound, and am looking for examples of
that to download. I want to have something where on every new page, the audio
immeditely starts, and THEN the text that was just read pops up; This is so
that the people reading won't be distracted by the text and will listen and
look at the image on that page.

The reason that I want some samples is to see how people have done this
before, look-wise.

Thanks for your help!!

I doubt very much that you will be able to download a template with sound
already in it. You may want to look here on how you insert a sound file and
have it play for your entire presentation.

Play sounds across multiple slides (A WAV runs through it)

What you want (I think!) is not difficult
To get the sound file in the presentation Insert > movies and sounds >
sounds from files (choose play automatically)

Now add the text and select it
Slide show > custom animation > give it any entrance animation and where it
says "on click" choose "after previous"

There's also info on sounds in out tips page

Micheal,

Thank you for your reply. Why do you say that you doubt I will find such a
template?
Is this related to my fear that the PPT will have a file size too large if
there are too many audio files?

The file size could be big, but sound files are put into files by the user
and are not part of the template.
