I am trring to record audio for a large conference we have coming up
where we will have guest speakers coming up and giving their
presentations.  We will generally obtain a copy of the presentation and
record the Audio of the guest speaker so that we can compile a CD with
the power point and audio synced together in an "auto running" power
point show.   In the past, we have recorded the audio from the guest
speaker thrugh the conference room microphone/speaker system (to obtain
the best audio quality) and manually "dubbed" the speakers voice trying
to guess when the speaker changed the slides based on what he was
talking about.

Do you know if this can be automated in someway, somehow digitally
recording the slide transitions and timing?  Any aftermarket
hardware/software that can do this.

Click Slide Show > Record Narration. Then set the microphone quality. Once
you are done, click ok. You can then record your narration for each slide.
The timing for each slide will also be saved.

And to take it a step more:

Use the Link to Sounds option so you get a series of independent sound files.

ALSO record the proceedings using a high quality microphone/sound system.

Then if the original sounds don't work out well enough, you can go back to the
pro-quality version, locate the section that corresponds to the sound for the
slide that PPT recorded and create a new file to replace PPT's version.
