Text-to-Speech Voiceovers

Creating Voiceovers Without a Microphone

Don't have a professional microphone, or just prefer not to use your own voice? The Text-to-Speech (TTS) tool allows you to convert any written text into a clean, natural-sounding audio voiceover.

Step 1: Open the Text-to-Speech Tool

In the main header of the editor, click on the Tools menu (the hammer icon). From the dropdown menu, select Text to Speech (Kokoro). This will open the voice generation dialog.

Step 2: Enter Your Script

Type or paste the text you want to convert into the large text area.

Step 3: Choose a Language and Voice

Select the language of your text from the first dropdown menu. Then, choose from a variety of male and female voices in the second dropdown. Some voices may need to be downloaded on first use if they aren't already cached in your browser.

Step 4: Generate and Preview

Click the Generate button. The tool will process your text and create an audio file. An audio player will appear, allowing you to preview the generated voiceover. You can go back and adjust the text or voice and regenerate as many times as you need.

Step 5: Save to Your Media Library

Once you are happy with the result, click the Save to Library button. You'll be prompted to give your new audio file a name. After saving, the voiceover clip will appear in your Media Library, ready to be added to your timeline.
