Clone a voice

A saved voice is a clone of one person’s voice, made from a 3 s to 120 s sample. You make it once and pick it on any audio card whose model clones voices. Saving a voice costs nothing.

Voices belong to your workspace, not to a project, so every project in the workspace sees the same list. A workspace holds up to 50.

Make a voice

1. Open the Library and click Voices in the sidebar. Then click New Voice in the toolbar. You can also choose New Voice… from the voice menu on an audio generation card.
2. Type a Name, up to 80 characters.
3. Under Sample, choose where the recording comes from:
   • Record: pick the Input device and record. Recording stops on its own at 120 s.
   • Library: use audio already in this project or the Library.
   • File: drop or choose an M4A, MP3, WAV, AAC, AIFF, FLAC or OGG file.
4. Check the length line. 10 s to 60 s of one person speaking in a quiet room clones best. Under 3 s or over 120 s won’t save.
5. Tick the permission box. It confirms the voice is yours, or that you have the speaker’s explicit permission.
6. Click Save Voice, or press ⌘Return.

Esc cancels. Closing the dialog during a save cancels the save.

Opened from a generation card, the dialog saves the voice to the Library and puts it on that card, or on the speaker you opened it from.

Use a voice on a generation card

The voice slot appears on audio cards whose model clones voices.

1. Click Choose voice on the card.
2. Pick a saved voice. Each row shows its length and a play button to preview it.
3. For a conversation, switch the card from Single to Multi. It starts with Speaker 1 and Speaker 2. Click Add Speaker for more, up to the model’s limit.
4. In the script, start each line with Speaker 1:, Speaker 2: and so on. Lines with no speaker use Speaker 1.

The card won’t generate until every speaker in the script has a voice.

Manage voices

Library > Voices lists each voice with its Name, Duration and the date Added. Click the round button to preview a voice. Starting one preview stops the last.

To delete a voice, hover its row and click the trash icon, then Delete. This deletes the voice and its recording, and you can’t undo it. Cards that used it can no longer generate with it.

Voices can’t be renamed. Make a new one and delete the old.

An agent can list your voices and use them on generation cards. Only you can make or delete one.

Result

The voice is in Library > Voices and in the voice menu of every audio card that clones voices. A card with a voice in each speaker slot shows its price and generates.

If it doesn’t work

“This recording is already saved as a voice.” That sample is already a voice in this workspace. Pick it from the list, or use another sample.

“The voice service is busy. Try again in 20 s.” Wait the time it gives, then click Try Again. The upload is kept, and a retry never saves the voice twice.

“You have 50 voices, the limit.” Delete a voice you no longer use, then save again.

A card says a voice was deleted. Click Refine and pick another voice for that speaker.

Record shows the microphone is blocked. Click Open System Settings and allow Cask Film under Privacy & Security > Microphone, then try again.
