Title: Speech to Speech is HERE and it’s EPIC! Latest AI Feature from ElevenLabs Blows My Mind

If you’ve been following advancements in AI, you know that text-to-speech capabilities have come a long way. But hold onto your hats, because ElevenLabs has just raised the bar even higher with their new Speech to Speech feature. This innovation lets you not only dictate what’s being said but also control how it’s said, replicating your tone and emotion. Let’s dive in!

The Unbelievable Accuracy of ElevenLabs

I’ve always been impressed with the quality of ElevenLabs’ text-to-speech, but the Speech to Speech feature is simply astounding. Here’s how it works. Within the speech synthesis panel, you select the Speech to Speech option. You can choose from any of ElevenLabs’ voices or even use a cloned voice—something I’ve covered in my previous videos.

How It Works: A Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Select a Voice: Choose from ElevenLabs’ library of voices or use a voice you’ve cloned.
  2. Record Your Audio: Simply speak into your microphone. This can be done on any device, including laptops.
  3. Generate the Voice: Click ‘Generate’ to have the AI replicate what you said, complete with your tone and emotion.

Here’s an example: I recorded myself saying, "This is really interesting. I absolutely love it." The AI not only captured my words but also my enthusiasm. Likewise, I've always thought Mike Russell is fantastic. Let's see how Isabella, the AI voice, echoes my thoughts:

"I've always thought Mike Russell was absolutely fantastic. He's just the most amazing person on the planet. I love him so much. He’s really, really great."

Application in Various Scenarios

The potential applications are vast. For instance:

  • Radio Liners: Have them delivered exactly the way you want
  • Accents and Dialects: Mimic different accents to perfection
  • Custom Announcements: Perfect for DJs and broadcasters

Here’s a test using Sam, one of ElevenLabs voices. I recorded a radio liner in my style and then an Aussie greeting with James, another voice in their library. Both replicated my recording with remarkable fidelity.

Testing My Cloned Voice

Even more impressive is using my own cloned voice. Here’s a quick comparison:

  • Text to Speech: "DJ Mike in the mix" sounds flat.
  • Speech to Speech: "DJ Mike in the mix" carries the energy and emotion I intended.

Mimicking Accents and More

I even tried speaking in an American accent while using my British English clone. The result? A surprisingly accurate AI rendition of my American version.

And as a final fun test, I had Isabella, one of the AI voices, try out an American accent:

"Well hello there. I come from San Francisco where everything is just simply magical."

Conclusion

This Speech to Speech feature from ElevenLabs is remarkable and opens up endless possibilities for personalized audio. I’m having a blast with it, and I encourage you to give it a try!
