The AudioStack voice library gives examples of the range of voices available, across a wide variety of providers and languages.
These can be used in any of our workflows or to generate audio in the API.
Add a Voice to Favourites
If you have an AudioStack account, you can add voices to your favourites to find them more easily in future. Simply click the heart icon on a specific voice to add to your favourites, and use the Favourites filter to view the list.
Filtering your Results
There are two ways you can filter results in the Voice Library - using the search bar at the top of the page, or by selecting filters from the top of the page. If you apply a filter while browsing the Voice Library from inside a Workflow such as Workshop or SonicSell, these filters will persist, so if you close the window and reopen it, you will still see your filtered results.
FAQs
Why are voices multilingual and then speak a specific language? How does that work?
The card description indicates main language and accent. If main language is 'multilingual' and accent is 'Spanish Castilian', it will use a Spanish accent.
However, if the card says Multilingual | British, for example; it can still speak Spanish. It will just do in a British accent.
How to find a great voice?
When you're looking for the best voices on AudioStack you'll usually start from a language and, especially if that language is English, an accent as well.
Languages are complex and depending on what you're looking for this process will slightly change.
Let's look at two examples to drive home how different languages might require different approaches to find the perfect voice for your project:
Finding a Canadian English voice
Here, we're actually talking about an accent. The easiest way to find your perfect Canadian voice is to directly search for "Canadian" in the "Accent" menu:
This will get you to your goal faster AND it will include multilingual voices. As a result you'll see a larger number of voices to choose from. Note how French Canadian is also included though, meaning that you could take the exact same route when looking for a French Canadian accent.
Finding a German voice
Now we're after a language, where the default access is German from Germany (for Austrian or Swiss German, you'd use the approach above). Now, not only will the German language filter work, you can go broader. Given that all of the multilingual voices speak German, you can also check that box in the Language filter:
Note, how there are all kinds of accents available and yet those voices will still be able to speak German without an accent (there are exceptions to this).
You can test voices by clicking on them and typing or pasting a short script - German in this case. You can now generate a preview:
On top of these languages settings you can always narrow down by gender or your favorite voice provider as well.
