Input Parameters
| Name | Type | Description | Default | Constraints |
|---|---|---|---|---|
text* | string | The exact words to speak. Add momentary sounds and pauses inline with angle-bracket tags, for example "Wait... <short pause> did you hear that? <gasp>". Supported tags include <laugh>, <sigh>, <gasp>, <cough>, <breath>, <whispering>, <short pause> and <long pause>. Spell tricky names in IPA between slashes, like /niːv/. In two-speaker mode, write one line per turn as "Name: what they say" (or "Name (style): what they say" to direct that line), and wrap quick reactions from the other speaker in pipes, like "So the launch is Thursday |oh hmm| are we ready?". | — | — |
output_format | string | Audio file format. | "wav" | wavmp3 |
second_voice | string | Voice for the second speaker. Set this to turn on two-speaker mode, where each line of text must look like "Name: what they say" with exactly two different names. | "none" | noneAchernarAchirdAlgenibAlgiebaAlnilamAoedeAutonoeCallirrhoeCharonDespinaEnceladusErinomeFenrirGacruxIapetusKoreLaomedeiaLedaOrusPulcherrimaPuckRasalgethiSadachbiaSadaltagerSchedarSulafatUmbrielVindemiatrixZephyrZubenelgenubi |
style | string | Optional delivery direction for every line, such as "warm and enthusiastic", "whispered urgently" or "speaking slowly". Leave empty for natural delivery, which usually works best. In two-speaker mode, a "Name (style):" prefix overrides this for that line. | "" | — |
