Choose a voice
To choose one:

- Optional: Type a name in the "Search voices..." box.
- Select the play button beside a voice to hear it.
- Select the voice. You'll see it under Voice.
- Generate the voiceover again to use the new voice.
Voices sit in these groups:
| Group | What's in it |
|---|---|
| Cloned | Voices cloned in your workspace. |
| My Voices | The default voice from your Brand memory, when it isn't in another group. |
| Native | Voices made for the language you chose. The group changes when you change the language. |
| Multilingual | Voices that speak many languages. |
| Classic multilingual | More voices that speak many languages. |
A group shows only when it has voices for you, and the voices in each group depend on your plan.
Create a voice clone
Create a voice clone, at the top of Choose a voice, makes a voice from recordings of a real voice.
To create an instant voice clone:
- In Choose a voice, select Create a voice clone > Instant voice cloning.
- Enter the Name of the voice and choose its Language.
- Optional: Add a Description of the voice.
- On the Record tab, select Start recording and read the script aloud.
- Select Stop recording. Layerpath makes the voice from your recording.
- Select Done. You'll see the new voice chosen under Voice, and listed under Cloned.
To use recordings you already have, select Upload in step 4, add the files, and select Next.
A Pro or Team workspace can keep 3 instant voice clones. After that, you'll see "Max 3 reached, delete existing to create new." To delete a cloned voice, select the bin icon beside it under Cloned.
Professional voice cloning uses longer recordings. After you upload them, you read a short text aloud to confirm it's your voice, and the voice trains. You can close the window and keep working, and the voice shows under Cloned when it's ready. On plans other than Enterprise, you'll see "Upgrade to Enterprise to access professional voice cloning."
What each plan includes
| Plan | Languages | Native voices | Voice cloning |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | English | Shown, but need an upgrade | Not included |
| Pro | Every language in the list | Included | Instant voice cloning, up to 3 voices |
| Team | Every language in the list | Included | Instant voice cloning, up to 3 voices |
| Enterprise | Every language in the list | Included | Instant voice cloning and Professional voice cloning |
On Free, picking another language shows "Upgrade to use non-English languages", and picking a Native voice shows "Upgrade to use native voices". For prices and everything else each plan includes, see the pricing page.
Set workspace defaults in Brand memory
To set them:
- Go to Brand memory > Brand identity.
- Under "Default language and AI voice", choose a Language.
- Choose a Voice. You'll see "Voice settings updated".
New voiceovers start with this language and voice. If the voice isn't in another group, it shows under My Voices in Choose a voice. To set up the rest of Brand memory, see Set up Brand memory.
