How to Change a Voice in a Recording

A step-by-step tutorial for converting an existing recording into a different voice while keeping the original words, timing, and emotion.

Change a Voice

In this tutorial you will take a recording you already have and convert it into a different voice. The words, timing, and emotion stay the same. Only the speaker's identity changes.

For a full reference, see the Voice Changer docs.


Prerequisites

  • Voice Creator Pro, running either as the desktop app on your machine, or in your browser with VCP Cloud
  • A recording to convert (a file, a mic take, or a voice in your library), up to an hour long
  • A target voice in mind (from your library, a short reference clip, or a YouTube link on the desktop app)

Step-by-Step Walkthrough

Step 1: Open the Voice Changer

Click Voice Changer in the left sidebar.

Step 2: Add Your Source Audio

Load the recording you want to convert in the Source audio panel. Pick whichever fits:

  • Upload - Select a WAV or MP3 from your computer.
  • Record - Capture a take directly in the app.
  • Library - Use the clip of a voice you already saved.

Step 3: Choose a Target Voice

Select the voice you want the recording to become in the Target voice panel:

  • Pick any saved voice from Library.
  • Record or Upload a short reference clip.
  • Click YouTube, paste a URL, and pull the audio from a video (desktop app only).

A clean 6 to 10 second reference works best.

Step 4: Convert

Click Convert. Voice Creator Pro re-voices the recording in the target speaker's identity while keeping the original words, timing, and emotion. The result plays in the player bar when it finishes.

Long recordings take a while. You can switch to another screen while it runs and come back later. The conversion keeps going.

Step 5: Download or Iterate

Download the output from the player bar, or try a different target voice. Every conversion is stored in History so you can compare attempts.


Tips for Best Results

  • Use a clean source recording. Background noise in the original carries into the conversion.
  • Use a clean target reference. A short, clear reference clip produces a more convincing target identity.
  • Try a few targets. Different voices suit different source performances. Compare a couple from your History.
  • Tune the result. Raise Guidance in Advanced settings to push harder toward the target voice, or raise Steps for a smoother sound.
