Frequently Asked Questions
How many voices and languages are available?
The tool offers 88 Microsoft Neural voices covering 30 languages and regional variants. This includes English (US, UK, AU), Russian, Korean, Arabic (SA, EG), Indonesian, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Japanese, Chinese (Mandarin, Cantonese), Hindi, Turkish, and more.
Is my text sent to a server?
Your text is sent to our server, which connects to Microsoft's neural speech service via a secure WebSocket to generate audio. The text is not stored on our servers — it is only used for the duration of the synthesis request.
What is the maximum text length?
You can enter up to 5,000 characters per generation. Longer texts are automatically split into chunks and synthesized sequentially, then seamlessly joined together.
Can I control how words are pronounced?
Yes! Wrap a word in asterisks like *this* to add emphasis (the voice will stress that word). Type /pause/ anywhere to insert a 500ms silence. These simple markup options give you fine control over the speech output.
What audio formats can I download?
The speech is generated natively in MP3 format (24kHz, 48kbps). You can also download as WAV — the tool converts MP3 to WAV directly in your browser using the Web Audio API.
Why does the voice not match the detected language?
Auto-detection works best with sentences (3+ words). For very short text or mixed-language content, select the language manually from the dropdown. The tool detects language by analyzing Unicode script ranges and common word patterns.
