Video lesson coming soon. For now, follow the steps below.
With cloned voice, Izy Studio videos can be narrated in your own voice. You record (or upload) a clip reading the on-screen text, accept the consent terms, listen to the preview, and only then save it. To clone someone else's voice, that person must authorize it themselves by email.
Where to find it in Cognizy
Before you start
- Cloning doesn't cost anything: you listen to the preview first. Saving the voice costs 30 credits, one time.
- Record in a quiet place, about a hand's width from the microphone, for 1 to 2 minutes, speaking without pausing.
- Voice is biometric data: only clone your own voice or one that's authorized by email.
Step by step
- Step 1:
Open and click Clone a voice.
- Step 2:
In Recording, choose Record now and read the on-screen text aloud, or Upload file with 1 to 2 minutes of just your speech, no music. Cognizy checks the recording and shows whether it's good enough to clone.
- Step 3:
Click Continue.
- Step 4:
In Consent terms, give the Voice name, say What the voice will be used for and read the terms. Check all three confirmations and, in Signature, type your full name exactly as it appears in the terms. Click Clone and listen to preview.
- Step 5:
Listen to the Preview. If it sounds right, click Save voice (30 credits). If it doesn't, click Discard and record again in a quieter place: discarding doesn't cost anything.
- Step 6:
The voice appears in Brand voices. Choose it as the narrator in the video editor, just like any other voice in the cast.
How to know it worked
The voice appears in Brand voices, ready to narrate. In the video editor, it's listed with the narrators alongside the cast.
If something goes wrong
It shows that this recording can't be cloned.
The check found a problem (too little speech, low volume, or distortion). Record again for 1 to 2 minutes, in a quiet place, about a hand's width from the microphone.
The preview voice didn't sound right.
Click Discard (no charge) and record again speaking at your own pace, with no music or echo.
I want to clone someone else's voice.
In Whose voice is this, choose Someone else. They'll receive the terms by email and authorize it; the voice is only cloned after that.
