Tips and Tricks
Just like creating English audio in Studio, you can still use our popular tips and tricks to handcraft your audio. Here are some suggestions:
- Pronunciation: if a word doesn’t sound quite right, try using a creative spelling in that specific language to guide the AI.
- For example:
- In Spanish, Naranja can be spelled nahranja.
- In French, Orange can be spelled oranj
💡 Found a pronunciation that works? Add your word replacement to your Pronunciation Library for future use.
- Emphasizing a word or phrase: place a word or phrase in quotation marks ("") to guide the AI to pay particular attention to it.
-
Adding a pause: Create pauses with commas and periods.
- Commas add pauses in places where a voice actor would make a slight, subtle pause.
- Periods create a pause as well as a downward inflection. They are best used to break a long sentence into two pieces.
- Ellipses (...) create "breathing room," or combine punctuation marks ("...") to help create space.
Limitations
- Studio’s Respelling tool is phonetically specific to the English language. For this reason, we do not offer Respelling or pronunciation suggestions for other languages (yet!).
- Search is not yet supported for Chinese, Japanese, or Korean characters. This means clip and project titles may not be discoverable via the search bar.
- The Replacement Library currently supports only Latin-based characters. To avoid confusion, this feature is automatically disabled in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean-language projects.
- “Render by sentence/paragraph” isn’t available for Chinese, Japanese, or Korean projects yet. For now, content using CJK languages can choose “Create single take” to render audio in Studio.
- Closed captioning is not yet supported for Global Languages, but captions for Global Voices are coming soon!
We're actively working to improve support for these languages in future updates.
