Step 5: Previewing the Generated Speech

To check how the generated speech sounds, you can use the preview function. The voice will read out the entire text aloud, giving you a feel for the end product. In my example, you have the opportunity to hear the exciting plot of the short film brought to life by the AI voice. This helps you make adjustments if certain pauses or emphases do not seem right.

Step 6: Customizing the Voice

If you want to customize the voice, go back to the Voice Settings. Here you can adjust specific settings such as pitch, speed, and other parameters to find the perfect tone for your project. Through these customization options, you can tailor the voice to be unique and ideally suited to your project.
