Adding Sounds to PowerPoint Presentations

 

You can add sounds to a slide.  The easiest way to add sounds is using the collection of sounds from MS Office.  Also, you can use a music CD or record a sound.  Sounds can be added from the Insert menu               Movies and Sounds. 

 

Here’s how to add sound.

  1. From the Insert menu select Movies and Sounds then Sound from Clip Organizer. 
  2. Browse the sounds.  The sounds with the music note icons have music, instead of short sound effects.
  3. To add a sound, click the sound icon.  Click no to the following message: “Do you want your sound to play automatically in the slide show?  If not, it will play when you click it.”
  4. View the presentation to listen to the sound.  Click the sound icon.
