Sound can be added to each and every object in Captivate. The audio clip associated with an object plays when the object appears on the stage. Even though nothing prevents you from adding narration or music at the object level, most of the time, object-level audio is used to add sound effects to the movie.
In the next exercise, you will add a sound effect to the Adobe Media Encoder logo in the Encoder Demonstration project.
Go to slide 3 of the
encoderDemo_800.cptx
file underChapter06

By default, the Import Audio dialog displays the contents of the
Sound
directory underGallery
