:microphone: Best Practices for cloning your voice :microphone:

In order to ensure quality and make sure your time is being used correctly, we recommend the following for your recording environment and equipment. Input means output in voice cloning-the clearer and closer to the desired speaking style your recordings are, the more lifelike your synthetic voice will turn out.

:white-check-mark:Understanding the Nuances:

Before delving into the intricacies of voice cloning, it's crucial to comprehend the underlying principles. Voice cloning is exceptionally accurate in replicating the samples it's trained on, capturing both the nuances and imperfections of the provided audio. This includes background noise, room reverb, or any other unintended sounds present in the training samples.

:white-check-mark:Maintaining Clarity:

A fundamental aspect to ensure optimal results is maintaining clarity in the training data. The AI thrives when presented with a single, consistent speaking voice throughout the recordings. The introduction of multiple speakers or excessive noise can lead to confusion, hindering the AI's ability to discern the intended voice accurately.

:white-check-mark:Crafting the Desired Style:

The speaking style embedded in the training samples directly influences the output. Whether you aim to replicate your voice for an audiobook or any other purpose, align the training data with the desired style. Consistency in style within the uploaded samples is paramount for achieving the desired results.Think about what your voice will be used for, and make sure you consistently use that tone of voice, speaking style and energy.

:microphone:Best Practices for Recording Your Voice: :microphone:

  1. Professional Recording Equipment:
    We highly recommend that you do not use any type of lavalier, boom, laptop, desktop or mobile phone microphones.What we do recommend is anything in the range of Yeti Blue USB Microphone, Shure SM57 (w/ Focusrite 2i2 Interface), Rode NT-USB Microphone. For best results, we should ask the users to use a MacBook and Google Chrome.

  2. Microphone Distance:
    Position yourself at the recommended distance, approximately two fists away from the microphone, adjusting based on the recording type.

  3. Pop-Filter Usage:
    Minimize plosives during recording by using a pop-filter if available, or try to soften your delivery.

  4. Noise-Free Recording:
    Ensure a clean audio input by eliminating interference such as background music or noise.

  5. Room Acoustics:
    Record in an acoustically-treated room to reduce echoes and background noises. If this is not possible or you have a home setup, choose the quietest space in your house that does not have echoes. Turn off all air conditioning, fans and make sure there are no other people in the room while recording.

  6. Recording quality:
    Recording quality 44.1 kHz 16-bit or better. 48 kHz 24-bit is common and desirable

  7. Sufficient Audio Length:
    Provide at least 30 minutes of high-quality audio adhering to the guidelines for optimal results. Do not cut the Protocol required number of utterances short.

  8. Speaking Style:
    The quality of your voice model heavily depends on the quality of the recorded voice that is used for training. The volume, speaking rate, pitch, and expressive mannerisms must all remain consistent throughout the recording process. If you choose to do the recording over multiple sessions, itโ€™s important that they sound like they were done on the same day in the same room. To avoid inconsistency we recommend doing it in one session, or as few as possible.
    Make sure you have access to some drinking water. It will help keep your voice nice and clear.
    You should not add distinct pauses between words except if there are punctuation marks.
    Think about what your voice will be used for, and make sure you consistently use that tone of voice, speaking style and energy.

  9. Script Expectations:
    The script consists of a series of sentences that are separated by full stops, and displayed one at a time. Each script has a specific length which allows us to cover all the phonemes that are present in the respective language and contains a combination of general sentences, question sentences, exclamation sentences, long sentences, and short sentences. There will be some acronyms such as F B I, NASA etc. Please read these as they appear in the sentence. For example, if there is a space or full stop between the letters, then you will need to read it letter by letter such as F B I, and if there arenโ€™t any spaces, then you can read the whole word itself, such as NASA.
    The spoken words must match the text exactly. Every word of the script should be pronounced as it is written. Sounds should not be omitted or slurred together, as is common in casual speech, unless they have been written that way in the script. Especially things like โ€œI amโ€, should not be spoken as โ€œIโ€™mโ€ , or โ€œyou willโ€ as โ€œyouโ€™llโ€ and so on.

In conclusion, the success of voice cloning depends on the meticulous application of these best practices. For those eager to embark on the journey of creating lifelike voice clones, adherence to these guidelines ensures predictability and an authentic outcome.
