  5. 5. Production Use: Use your cloned voice for text-to-speech generation

Optimizing Speech Quality

Achieving professional-quality voice generation requires attention to text preparation, voice selection, and parameter tuning:

Text Preparation Best Practices

Writing for Speech

  • • Use conversational language and sentence structure
  • • Break up long sentences with natural pauses
  • • Spell out numbers, dates, and abbreviations
  • • Use punctuation to control pacing and emphasis
  • • Include phonetic spellings for difficult words

Pronunciation Control

SSML Tags (if supported):
<break time="1s"/> - Add pauses
<emphasis level="strong">text</emphasis> - Add emphasis
<phoneme ph="tomato">tomato</phoneme> - Control pronunciation

Voice Parameter Optimization

Speed Control

  • 0.8x: Deliberate, educational
  • 1.0x: Natural conversation
  • 1.2x: Energetic, promotional
  • 1.4x: Fast-paced content

Pitch Adjustment

Usage Limitations

Respect the intended use of cloned voices and avoid applications that could cause harm or misrepresentation.

Advanced Techniques

Multi-Speaker Content

Create dynamic content with multiple voices for dialogues, interviews, and varied presentations:

Dialogue Creation Workflow

  1. 1. Script your dialogue with clear speaker labels
  2. 2. Generate each speaker's lines separately with appropriate voices
  3. 3. Use audio editing software to combine and time the dialogue
  4. 4. Add natural pauses and overlaps for realism
  5. 5. Balance audio levels and apply consistent processing

Voice Consistency Across Projects

Maintaining Brand Voice
