That is, using a slide projector controller to present the slides in just the right time and sequence, and then recording the presentation. There have been some pretty sophisticated 'carousel controllers' on the market with the prices getting lower all the time. These devices let you control multiple carousels and let you fade in/out, dissolve from one slide to another, project multiple images, overlay, etc. And these functions are all programmable. So you could program it thru trial and error until you were happy with the results and then tape it. An even cheaper method would be to use a synchronizing device that lets you place timing marks on an audio tape channel to trigger the carousel tray.
