ElevenLabs Voiceover

ElevenLabs Voiceover is the industry-standard AI voice: natural, expressive narration from any script, straight onto your timeline.

ElevenLabs is the benchmark for natural text-to-speech, and Hiroska wires it in as the voiceover model. Pick a voice, paste or write the script, and the narration lands as audio clips aligned to your edit.

It pairs with the Director: write timed moments, generate voiceover per moment, and the timeline keeps narration in sync with the visuals it describes. Billing is by character count, so short lines cost very little.

Questions

How does ElevenLabs Voiceover work with the Director?
Write your script as timed moments, then generate voiceover per moment. Each clip lands on the audio lane at its moment’s time, and background music ducks under it automatically.
How is ElevenLabs Voiceover priced?
By the character count of the text you synthesise, converted to tokens and shown before you generate. Short reads stay cheap.
Can I preview ElevenLabs voices?
The voice picker lets you choose per generation. Regenerating a moment with a different voice is one click, and only the regenerated characters are billed.
