Why Create Custom Voices?

Using your own voice makes content unique. It builds a strong connection with your audience. Custom voices are perfect for all your audio needs. They enhance AI dubbing for videos and more.

How to Create a Voice by Uploading an Audio File?

The Create Voice feature lets you generate a custom AI voice by uploading a high-quality audio sample. Follow the guidelines below to ensure the best results.

Method 1:

Step 1: Upload an Audio File📤

Click Upload or drag and drop your audio file into the upload area.

  • Find the "Custom Voices" section in your Voice Library.

  • Click on the upload option.

  • Choose your audio file from your computer.

​Supported File Requirements

To maintain high-quality voice generation, your audio file must meet the following criteria:

  • File formats supported: .wav, .flac, .aac, .mp3

  • Audio length: Between 3 seconds and 10 minutes

  • A minimum of 3 seconds is required to ensure optimal voice accuracy.

  • Maximum file size: 40 MB

  • Playback limit: Up to 10 minutes

Audio Quality Guidelines

For best results, make sure the audio clip:

  • Is clear and high quality

  • Contains minimal background noise

  • Has no interruptions, distortions, or overlapping voices

Background Noise Option

  • If your audio includes background noise, enable the “Audio contains background noise” checkbox.

  • This helps the system process the audio more accurately.

Step 2: Proceed

Once the file is uploaded and settings are selected, click Next to continue creating your custom voice.

Step 3: Add Voice Details 📝

After uploading your audio file, the next step is to define your voice settings. These details help personalize and accurately categorize your AI voice.

  • Voice Name: Enter a name for your voice (for example, Female Voice). This makes it easy to identify and reuse the voice later.

  • Language: Select the language and region that best match the uploaded audio, such as English (United States). Choosing the correct language ensures better pronunciation and natural speech output.

  • Gender: Choose the gender that aligns with the voice in the audio sample (e.g., Female).

  • Age: Enter the approximate age of the speaker (for example, 28). This helps fine-tune the voice characteristics and tone.

  • Voice Description: Add a short description to define the voice style or mood, such as “Narration in soft tone.” This is useful for clarity and future reference.

Publish Voice to Marketplace (Optional):

You can choose whether to make your voice available to other users:

  • Enabled: Your voice will be published to the Marketplace and accessible to others.

  • Disabled: The voice remains private and only visible to you.

You can change this setting anytime by toggling it on or off.

Step 4: Generate the Voice 🎙️

Once all details are filled in:

  • Click Back to review previous steps, or

  • Click Generate to create your AI voice using the provided details.

Note: After creation, your voice is saved in the Custom section of the Voice Library for easy access and reuse.

Step 1: Navigate to the Speaker Settings 🎙️

Open the video editor and locate the Speaker Settings section on the top-right section of your screen.

Find the speaker whose voice you'd like to clone.

Step 2: Select and Clone the Voice 🧑‍🦰

  • Once you've identified the speaker, click on their name.

  • Scroll down and you will see the option "Clone and Save to Library".

  • Click on this option.

Note: Cloned voices extracted from a video can be found under the Customs tab in the Voice Library - > My Voices.

Step 3: Name Your Cloned Voice 🏷️

  • You will be prompted to assign a name to the cloned voice.

  • After naming it, click Clone.

  • Within a few minutes, the voice will appear in your Custom Voices section of the Voice Library, ready for use.

Method 3: How to Create A Voice From Text?

Text to Voice Synthesis: Craft your perfect voice with a detailed description.

You can describe a voice, and CAMB.ai will create it.

  • Go to the "Custom Voices" area.

  • Select the "Create Voice" option.

  • Type a detailed description of the voice you want. Describe its gender, age, and tone.

  • CAMB.ai will generate a voice based on your words.

  • You can then customize this voice further.

Example :

Voice Description: (Describe your voice)

Warm, calm, and expressive, with gentle pacing and soft inflections that create a soothing, immersive storytelling tone.

Text Preview: (Voice Script)

As the sun dipped below the horizon, the quiet village of Elmsworth held its breath. Every evening, just as twilight touched the rooftops, a soft bell would chime from the old clocktower—though no one had lived there for years. Young Clara, curious and brave, stepped into the shadows, determined to uncover the secret that had slept for generations.

  • Once you click on “Generate Voice”, it will give you two different voices based on your voice description.

  • Select one of the two voices, then click 'Continue'.

  • OR click 'Generate' to create a new Text-to-Voice synthesis.

  • Enter the Name, Language, Gender, Age, and Description. If you want to publish this voice to the Marketplace, enable the toggle button; otherwise, leave it off.

  • Click 'Save'.

What “Generate Random Voice” does?

  • A pool of preloaded sample sentences.

  • The system picks a voice description at random from the available set.

  • Based on the randomly chosen description, the system pulls a suitable TTS voice from the catalog.

  • The chosen random text is read aloud in the selected random voice.

  • You hear a preview right away, without setting anything manually.

How Do You Manage Your New Voices?

  • After creating a voice, you decide its use.

  • You can keep your voice private. This means only you can access it.

  • Or, you can publish it to the Marketplace. Sharing it on the Marketplace makes it public. Others can then use your custom voice.

How do I delete a voice from the voice library?

  • You can delete voices that appear under the Custom and Shared with me sections of the voice library.

  • Voices listed under Default and From Workspace cannot be deleted.
