  • 2020: VSL YouTube Videos with subtitles

    Dear VSL Community,

    Our products are being used all over the world, and we want to make sure that all our users have access to the information we are providing in our many video tutorials.

    How about helping the music community in your country to learn more about our products in their own language?
    Sounds like a useful holiday project to you?

    YouTube offers a great feature with their subtitles, and we have already edited many of our latest tutorials, always starting with the english version, to provide a good starting point.

    Check out this animated video for Big Bang Orchestra: Andromeda to find out how subtitles work.

    Click on "Settings" and choose your language (from 7 available options), and then switch your subtitles on and off with the "CC" button.

    If you like that idea, you can contribute by adding subtitles in your language, and it's really easy.
    You will even be provided with an automatic translation in your language, which will need some punctuation marks and corrections for capital letters - and a bit more attention to make it sound right.

    Check out this tutorial to find out how to do this, step by step.

    You could "practice" with the Bösendorfer Upright Introduction Video.

    Once you have sent your translation, we will quick-check and then publish it!

    Give it a try, and let us know what you think! We are also on it, so this will be an interesting project!

    Best,
    Paul
