Sometimes when you’re creating a voice over for a video, you may face a situation when the video footage is too short to read the whole script. In such cases, you can easily create a freeze frame to give all the necessary information and then continue the video.

Before, when you uploaded a pre-recorded video to iSpring Suite, you had to work with a single track that included both video and audio. Now, it’s possible to edit video and audio tracks separately.

Sometimes, you may find that the volume of your voice is different throughout a voice-over. The reason may be a poor microphone or bad acoustics. iSpring Suite automatically normalizes the recording so you don’t have to do it manually.

With iSpring’s Narration Editor, you can cut out a poor voice-over and record a better version right on the spot using your mic.

iSpring Suite automatically reduces background noise, making your voice louder and clearer.

A pyramid in the Pyramid interaction consists of several sectors. Now, you can customize in which order these sectors will be displayed: from top to bottom or from bottom to top. This can be especially useful if you’re using a flipped pyramid.

These two new characters are perfect for onboarding training, product catalogues, or language courses for children.

Before, if you had hidden slides in your course, the LMS would process them as a part of your course. Therefore, users could never get 100% completion, because they couldn’t see those hidden slides. We’ve fixed that. Now, hidden slides won’t distort your learners’ results.

If you want to create a backup copy of your project or quickly send it to a colleague, simply save your course as a zip file. An archive file takes up less computer space and can be sent by email.

iSpring offers best-in-class conversion technology, and we keep developing it.

Before, learners got a fixed number of points for each correct answer, no matter how many attempts they made. Now, you can give less points for each next attempt.

Now, you can reuse quiz content created with an older version of iSpring to quickly put together new quizzes and surveys. Simply import questions and fine-tune their design, and the quiz is ready for publishing.

With this template, you can explain your company hierarchy. Plus, it’s a great template to use in soft skills training to show, for example, the Minto pyramid principle, which can help people communicate more effectively.

Smooth transitions between scenes
Adjust the transition effects so that one scene smoothly dissolves while the next scene appears.

With iSpring Suite, you can record screencasts to quickly train employees to work with corporate apps. For example, you can show them how to work with an inventory management app, a learning portal, or a CRM system.

You can record your screen and webcam video at the same time, and then show the two streams together or switch between them. For example, enhance a CRM screencast tutorial with a talking-head video.

Now, when you record a screencast, iSpring Suite automatically detects keystrokes, mouse clicks, and typing, and adds annotations for these actions to your video.

This interaction helps you quickly structure your info. For example, you can show the principles of SMART goal setting or the SWOT analysis methodology.
