Fixed speed scroll mode in Teleprompter Automatic

Fixed speed scrolls the script at one constant speed until you pause or adjust it. Choose it when you want predictable movement that does not depend on speech recognition or a target duration.

When fixed speed is best

Use this mode for noisy rooms, music beds, silent practice, product demos, or any recording where speech recognition might be distracted. It is also the simplest fallback when you only need the script to move steadily.

  • Start with a moderate speed.
  • Read the first paragraph aloud and adjust before recording.
  • Use pause when you need to hold on a line.

How to adjust it

Open the scroll mode selector, choose Fixed speed, and move the speed slider. On Android the fixed speed slider is shown as a percent control; iOS stores the same fixed-speed behavior as one of the reader scroll modes.

What to watch for

If you keep rushing, lower the speed. If you wait for lines, raise it. Fixed speed is not tied to word count, so any large script edit should be followed by another short test.

How fixed speed differs from the other modes

Fixed speed does not listen to your voice, does not calculate a target duration, and does not use the script word count. That makes it predictable and easy to control, but it also means you are responsible for matching the pace. If your delivery changes a lot, pause and adjust instead of fighting the scroll.
