Introducing Voice Design v3

We're excited to announce Voice Design v3. The new release makes creating voices quicker, easier, and more intuitive than ever before. 

Voice Design v3 is ideal for creators, businesses, and developers who need specific voices for their project. All you have to do is describe your voice, instantly get three options, choose your favorite, and start using it right away.

Give it a try and see how easy voice creation can be.

Why Voice Design Matters

When we launched Voice Design, the goal was simple: let any creator generate a bespoke voice — no studio booking, no audio library deep dives. Version 3 takes that further, offering more control, faster iteration, and a smoother path from concept to final audio.

Projects often require dozens of voices: a calm narrator, an anxious side character, a few game NPCs, maybe even a talking raccoon. Searching for “something close enough” slows teams down. 

Voice Design v3 removes that friction. Type a description, generate three candidates, choose one, and move on — all while paying only for the characters in your prompt, not per sample.

What’s New in v3

• Precision audio quality: Add terms like “perfect audio quality” (or any other grade) to your prompt — v3 will honor them. Want a tin-can radio effect instead? Just say so. You control the polish.
• Smarter prompting engine: v3 handles nuanced cues like “middle-aged New Yorker with rising intonation and a half-smile” without introducing artifacts or losing clarity. Behind the scenes, we’ve expanded the latent space and retrained on broader accent data, making rare combinations sound natural.

Two design modes

• Realistic Voice Design for lifelike performances. Example: “An Indian woman with a soft, calm delivery.”
• Character Voice Design for anything from elves to elder gods.

One click, three voices

Hit Generate and v3 returns three distinct voices. Keep the one you like—it fills a voice slot—and discard the rest. No queue. No extra cost.

Design a voice in three steps

Reproducir

1. Pick a concept: What role does the voice play? Sketch a quick persona.
2. Prompt with intent: Describe age, accent, tone, pacing, and audio quality in a single sentence. Example: “Perfect audio quality. Elderly male, thick Scottish accent, slow and reflective, gravelly timbre.”
3. Save and deploy: Choose one of the three previews—it’s instantly usable in the ElevenLabs API or web studio.

No dropdown forests. No hidden levers. Just results.

A word on clarity

Los mejores prompts se leen como una conversación diaria: cortos, específicos y sin jerga. Ese principio refleja nuestro estilo de escritura: si una palabra se puede eliminar, elimínala.

Real-world applications

• Game development:Prototipa misiones secundarias con voces de marcador de posición hoy. Reemplázalas con lecturas finales mañana, sin necesidad de re-casting.
• Audiobooks and podcasts: Give each character a distinct sound. Then refine delivery scene by scene.
• Localization:  Maintain timing in translated dialogue while generating culturally accurate accents.
• Accessibility: Crea voces que se alineen con el tono de una marca para lectores de pantalla y sistemas IVR, mejorando la comodidad del usuario.
