Applying and Creating Voice Effects

The voice for the animated model depends on the audio source for the script. If you create the script by importing a WAV file or by recording using the sound recorder, the model's voice is the voice from the original audio source. If you use the text-to-speech converter to create a script from plain text, you can choose a synthetic voice for the model. However, you can also apply artificial voice effects to the voice for an additional effect.

Note:

You can download additional text-to-speech converter from Microsoft, or browse to Reallusion website for more information.
