PowerPoint allows users to add audio to presentations. Audio can be inserted from files on a computer or recorded directly. To insert audio from a file, users select the Audio option from the Insert tab and choose the desired file. Recorded audio involves selecting the Record Audio option and speaking into a microphone. Audio files can be edited by trimming sections, adjusting volume and playback options, and adding bookmarks. Understanding how to insert and edit audio gives users more presentation capabilities.

computers, audio is the sound system that
comes with or can be added to a computer.
