Using the Text-to-Speech

Go to Music > click on the Speech tab

Choose between Google TTS and AI TTS

Google  TTS is free for all and can be used without any limit.

AI TTS requires credits to work.

All Access Pass members get 3000 credits every 1st of the month 

(3000 credits=3000 characters). Unused credits do not accumulate.

Standard users can purchase credits from the store. Purchased credits do not expire.

Because credits are consumed as soon as you click on "Generate Speech", we recommend using the preview section to listen to the available voices to avoid using up your credits.

Once you've selected a voice from the menu, type your script in the text box. Click on Generate Speech.

Note 1: The maximum number of characters the text-to-speech supports is 1000 characters including spaces. If you have longer scripts you will need to split them into several clips.

Note 2 : We suggest saving the text first on your word processor so you can easily edit them. You can copy the text and paste it into the text-to-speech field by pressing Ctrl/CMD+V.

Click on Import

The generated audio is automatically added to the  Project folder. 

You can then drag it to the canvas or the timeline.

ADDING A PAUSE BETWEEN WORDS OR SENTENCE

To insert a pause between words or sentences, simply type [PAUSE=S] where S is the number of seconds.

For example: "How are you?[PAUSE=3] I am good."

The voice will make a 3-second pause after "How are you?" before it reads the next sentence.

To give more control over the pause timing, you may also use a decimal point to add milliseconds.

For example: "How are you?[PAUSE=3.5] I am good."

This will give a 3.5 second pause which is equal to 3500 milliseconds
