I am making a tutorial using keynote. I need to have sound as though I am listening to music while recording. I need them to HEAR THE MUSIC IM PLAYING AT THAT MOMENT. But I don't want them to hear, say, my friend talking to me. So if i'm recording while listening to iTunes, I need them to hear the song on iTunes.
MacBook Air, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5), Quicktime
Will someone please help me?!
if you want a sound file to play only when a single slide is showing:
drag and drop the sound file on an individual slide
if you want the sound file to play continuously from the beginning of the presentation:
drag and drop a sound file on to the soundtrack audio well in: Inspector > Document > Audio
I know that! But I am recording also with QuickTime. I want to record the music on the keynote but I don't see an option to do that. If I can record on Keynote, then that would be great! Is there an option for that?
Thanks
BTW, I already have the song in the keynote.
I think you need to list exactly what sound files you are trying to playback in Keynote as I have difficulty understanding what is going on in your project.
I don't think its a complicated issue, however the terminology used by Apple to describe functions is confusing, for example the word "recording" is used in three types of functions.

According to the above, you have been able to add this music from iTunes which is playing in Keynote.
Is this correct or is there other music your trying to add?

What are you recoding with QuickTime, a voice over, additional music or are you trying to "record" builds or transition timing using Play > Record Slideshow ?
OK, so, I made a keynote. I want to record the presentation that has the keynote in "play" mode. I know how to do that, very simple. But I have a song already on the keynote. But while I record, even though I play the song, I can't hear it after I play the video I recorded. It is very annoying and I need to hear the song on the video WHILE I record.

You are recording a narration (voice over) or you are recording advance to next slide using Play > Record Slideshow?

You will need to plugin headphones to listen to the music playback, if you allow speakers to play the music back, the music will be picked up by the mic and cause feedback resulting in howel or echo in the recording.
check system sound settings in: Apple Menu > System Preferences > Sound > Output (select headphones)
