I don't know if this helps, but I recently downloaded Keynote onto my iPod Touch (4th generation) and copied an old presentaion that I made with Keynote for Mac onto it. It had audio in the last slide, and I was able to play it back in editing mode and it played fine in presenter mode too. However, on my iPod, the only editing I can do is making the track loop or not. The advanced editing (i.e. where to start and stop the music, when it starts playing on the slide, etc.) are not available on the iPod, and I assume the same goes for the iPad as well.
So, if you make a presentation in Keynote for Mac that has audio, and then transfer it to your iPod/iPhone/iPad, you can hear it and it plays in both presenter and editing mode. Hope this helps.
You can record audio over presentations using the whiteboard apps Explain Everything (my favorite) or Educreations. Both let you incorporate presentation files of various formats, use the whiteboard features to annotate slides as you give the presentation, and record audio as you go. They can then be saved as presentations within the apps, or they can be saved as movie files.
Crikey! 3 years on and Apple still can't find a way to add a voiceover to Keynote. For all those who say create it on the Mac first and then show it on the iPad - doesn't this just add credence to those who say the iPad is all about consumtpion and not creation? I want my students to add voiceovers to their presentations - I guess I'll just use iMovie instead...or look for something non-Apple that might do something that does the job much better.
Audio in iPad presentations?
