Step 1. Click the link and head over to eleven labs.
Step 2. Log in or create an account if you don’t already have one.
Step 3. In the left panel click on “Voices” then click on Create.
Step 4. Click on Generative or Cloned Voice.
Step 5. Click on “instant Voice Cloning.
Step 6. Name your clone file.
Step 7. Upload a recording of your voice or record a 30-second clip of your voice (be sure to speak clearly and in the tone, you would like your content to be read, and avoid background noise
If you did not upload a pre-recording of your voice, preview the 30-second recording you created.
Step 8. Once satisfied, label & give a description of your voice & agree to the terms. and click “Add Voice”Step 9. (your cloned voice will now be added to the voice options list)
.
Step 9. Select your cloned voice file from the voice options list
Step 10. Add the text you would like to be read in your voice.
Step 11. You can adjust stability, clarity, and style exaggeration in the “voice settings” section.
Step 12. Click “Generate Specch “
Once generated the text will be played back in your voice.
you can continue to adjust stability, clarity, and style exaggeration until the playback 9s to your liking
According to eleven labs:
The stability slider determines how stable the voice is and the randomness between each generation. Lowering this slider introduces a broader emotional range for the voice. As mentioned before, this is also influenced heavily by the original voice.
The similarity slider dictates how closely the AI should adhere to the original voice when attempting to replicate it. If the original audio is of poor quality and the similarity slider is set too high, the AI may reproduce artifacts or background noise when trying to mimic the voice if those were present in the original recording.
Style exaggeration setting. With the introduction of the newer models, This setting attempts to amplify the style of the original speaker. It does consume additional computational resources and might increase latency if set to anything other than 0. It’s important to note that using this setting has shown to make the model slightly less stable, as it strives to emphasize and imitate the style of the original voice.
In general, we recommend keeping this setting at 0 at all times.
Speaker Boost This is another setting that was introduced in the new models. The setting itself is quite self-explanatory – it boosts the similarity to the original speaker. However, using this setting requires a slightly higher computational load, which in turn increases latency. The differences introduced by this setting are generally rather subtle.
