Clone Voice

Clone your voice in an instant. Note that voice cloning requires an API key, see below.

from elevenlabs import clone, generate, play

voice = clone(
    name="Alex",
    description="An old American male voice with a slight hoarseness in his throat. Perfect for news", # Optional
    files=["./sample_0.mp3", "./sample_1.mp3", "./sample_2.mp3"],
)

audio = generate(text="Hi! I'm a cloned voice!", voice=voice)

play(audio)

🚿 Streaming

Stream audio in real-time, as it's being generated.

from elevenlabs import generate, stream

audio_stream = generate(
  text="This is a... streaming voice!!",
  stream=True
)

stream(audio_stream)

🔑 API Key

The basic API has a limited number of characters. To increase this limit, you can get a free API key from Elevenlabs (step-by-step guide) and set is as environment variable ELEVEN_API_KEY. Alternatively you can provide the api_key string argument to the generate function, or set it globally in code with:

from elevenlabs import set_api_key
set_api_key("<YOUR_API_KEY>")
