# Setting keyboard tap sounds

#### You can include or exclude keyboard tap sounds in your movies. The tapping sounds are included in Captivate movies whenever you press keys on the keyboard while recording. If you do not like the tapping sounds in your finished movie, use the procedure below to remove them. The tapping sound is a movie-level setting, so the sound either plays on all slides or is removed from all slides.

#### To set keyboard tap sounds:

1. Open a Captivate project.

2. From the Movie menu, select Preferences.

3. Click the Preferences tab.

4. If a check mark appears next to the Play tap audio for recorded typing when movie is generated option, keyboard tap sounds are played in the movie. If a check mark does not appear, keyboard tap sounds are not played in the movie.
