Then the automatically created sk will be displayed. Please copy and save it. It will only be displayed at this time and will not be displayed later.
Use in Translation Software
Open the video translation software, Menu--TTS Settings--Elevenlabs.io--fill in the apikey copied in the previous step, and then click Test below. If it prompts ok, save it.
After saving, return to the main interface of the software, select Elevenlabs.io in the dubbing channel, and select the character you want to use in the role.
Note that free accounts have frequency limits. To avoid exceeding the frequency and causing errors, please modify the concurrency and the pause time after each dubbing, as shown in the figure below.
Select the Voice You Want to Use
Elevenlabs has thousands of voices. About a dozen of them can be used for free by default. You can also create your own voices.
https://elevenlabs.io/app/voice-lab
On this page, you can select the voice you want to use and click +Add to add it to your list of voices. Note that free accounts can only add 3 voices at most. After adding, go to the TTS settings of the video translation software to update the roles.
Create a New Custom Character
If you don’t have the character you want, you can also customize and generate a new character.
As shown in the figure above, after clicking, a custom box will pop up. Fill in the voice requirements in the box above and fill in the reading text below.
Clone Dubbing
Select clone in the dubbing role, which means using the voice from the original video for dubbing, but this function requires a paid membership of elevenlabs.io, otherwise it will definitely cause an error if you don’t use it.
If you want to use it, you can upgrade your account here https://elevenlabs.io/app/subscription
You can also try this feature on their website (upload a video), which is free, but the generated result will have a watermark.
