Audio brings your vision board script alive!

On this page you assign the tracks you wish to hear when your vision board is displayed. You can choose to hear a music track, your own voice or a combination of both.

To add music to your Vision Board, use the “add music file” button, select the track of your choice and click “open”. The song will be displayed in the music track list.

Use “add voice file” to include a voice recording you have on file.

You can even record your own voice right here, for instance stating your goals or vision statement

iTunes7 iTunes Tip
The VBS supports MP3 formatted music. If you are storing your digital music in iTunes then you may need to first convert the iTunes track that you want to use to MP3. By Default Apple uses a proprietary format to encode music that you copy from audio cds. To convert a track to MP3 simply right click a song in iTunes and select “convert to MP3″ from the pop up menu.

musicandaudio Add a MP3 Music track to your vision board script.
Add voice files Add a audio track to your vision board script. The voice track is reserved for MP3 or Wav files that tend to have spoken content.
horn The VBS presentation uses the volume settings of your computer. The volume control in Step 3 sets the volume of the Music track relative to the Voice track. Think of it in this way, the voice track is always the loudest, after all you want to hear what is being said. You can set the music track to use the same level of loudness or it can be softer. Generally speaking the music track should be quieter than the voice track and by default it is set to 60% of the loudness of the voice track.
Voice recording The VBS Studio has a built in voice recorder. You computer must be set up to record via a microphone. While it may initially be a bit disconcerting to hear your own voice, while watching a presentation, the effect can be very compelling.
