## Summary

This tutorial demonstrates how to edit an AI voice using 11 Labs and Lexis audio editor to make it sound realistic. The presenter shows step-by-step adjustments including pitch, tempo, speed, equalizer, compressor, and reverb effects, and discusses monetization.

### Key Points

- **Video Purpose** [00:02] — The video aims to teach how to edit AI voice to sound super realistic, almost like a real human.
- **Using 11 Labs** [00:41] — Go to 11 Labs via the link in the description, sign up, and add your script.
- **Selecting Voice** [00:53] — Choose a pre-made voice from the voice library or design a custom one. Demo uses Charlie's voice.
- **Downloading AI Voice** [01:18] — Adjust voice over and download from 11 Labs.
- **Importing to Lexis** [01:31] — Import the downloaded AI voice into Lexis audio editor via 'Open recent audio'.
- **Adding Effects - Change Pitch** [01:59] — First effect is Change Pitch (optional). Adjust to -1 or -2 to make voice thicker, or positive for thinner voice. Do not exceed ±2.
- **Adding Effects - Change Tempo** [03:17] — Second effect is Change Tempo. Adjust around +1 to +3 to speed up without making voice chipmunk-like.
- **Adding Effects - Change Speed** [03:46] — Third effect is Change Speed. Adjust between +1 to +2 to increase speed. Skip if already fast.
- **Equalizer Amplifier** [04:40] — Main effect: Increase left bars for bass, right bars for treble. Balance while listening. Pre-amplifier should be around 8 dB for correct volume.
- **Compressor Effect** [06:04] — Fifth effect: adjust threshold between 14-18. Keep other settings default.
- **Reverb Effect** [06:32] — Last effect: set room size ~150, reverb time 4-6 sec, damping 50-60, input bandwidth 0, dry level 0, reflection level 25-30, tail level ~20.
- **Final Result** [07:29] — Play the edited voice to verify realistic sound. Save with file manager.
- **Monetization Note** [08:06] — Voice editing is not compulsory for monetization; content with human touch is key. Some AI voices already good.

### Conclusion

By following these editing steps, you can transform a robotic AI voice into a natural-sounding voice. However, editing is optional for monetization; scripting with human-like emotions is crucial.

## Transcript

this video is for you today I'm going to show you step by step how to edit your AI voice to make it sound super realistic almost like a real human so wonder if they're listening to an AI

the voice editing process is the voice over and to find the voice over come to 11 Labs from the link in my description box after signing up add your script here I added the demo script and to
select the voiceover actor come to the voices option here either you can design your own custom AI Voice or if you want to select from pre-made voices come to the voice library and you'll find a lot of voices choose your AI voice and add
it after this come back to the text to speech option and here you'll find the voice you've just added or created so choose that voice as a demo I am choosing Charlie's voice this is the voice I used in my first video adjust
over and download it just like I did now finally we are going to edit it the part you don't have to do much just import your AI voice over in this application Lexus audio editor you can download it
have no idea how to import The Voice simply click on this open Button open recent audio and the AI voice you have just downloaded will be in front of you just select it and it will be added as you guys can see our AI voice has been
can get an idea of how it sounded before editing look at this channel it's making simple health related videos and getting millions of views this is the before version and I'll show you after version after the editing now what we're going
to do next next is ADD effects to this voice and for this first off click on the very first effect we're about to add is called change Pit this step is completely optional the reason I used it is because I wanted to make my AI voice
change your voice you can use this effect just click on it as you can see it's set to one half tone and this is how it works if you move it to the negative side it will make your AI voice sound thicker Let Me Show You by playing
it's making simple health related videos and if you move it to the positive side it will make your AI voice sound thinner look at this channel it's making simple according to your preference depending
wanted to make my AI voice sound a little thicker so I adjusted it to one you can move it to one or two at most depending on your choice but don't increase or decrease it too much Beyond this because then your AI Voice May
done with the settings save the preset just like I did and next time when you want to apply this effect just select it applied automatically when you're done with this click on play to check the
effect after finalizing click on apply and it will be added to your voice our first effect is applied now it's time to add the second effect again click on three dots go into effects and our second effect is going to be change
Tempo click on it let me first show you how it works when you increase it it sounds like this it's making simple Health basically what it does is it you don't need to increase it more than plge 4 keep it at 1 2 or 3 if I show you
it more than plus three you can adjust it according to your preference for now I'm going to go with plus one check its effect by playing it and then click on apply our second effect is also done now we are about to add a third effect which
is going to be this change speed as you know most AI voices sound kind of slow so this is simply to increase the speed of AI voices just click on this keep it around plus one to plus two don't go too far otherwise it can start cutting off
words check its effect by playing it and after you're satisfied click on apply so far we have applied three effects on the AI voice in total the change pitch it sound unique and the other two effects that we have just added were to
increase the speed of the AI voice if your AI voice is already at the right speed then you can skip these one simple tip the settings I've shown you so far and the upcoming ones are tailored for this specific AI voice so they may not
work for your voice just follow the steps and adjust accordingly thanks so right speed and you just want to remove the robotic touch from your AI voice instead you can directly move to the main effect equalizer amplifier after
you'll witness an interface like this let me quickly set it to the default settings so basically you are going to see this type of interface with all bars set to equal if you increase the left three bars it will add base to your AI
voice look at this channel it's making simp similarly if you increase the right three bar it will add treble to your AI this channel it's making simple health have to do is balance out all these settings how can you do this just simply
Bars up and down while listening to your AI voice and when you think your AI voice sounds good then just go with those settings it can take some time but see this pre-amplifier option and what
will raise the volume of your AI voice you can check it from here before when it was at zero the voice was around 13 DB and the moment I increased it you can see it Rose above 13 DB ideally it
should be around 8 DB so if your voice is around this your settings are correct once you find your settings you can save them as a preset as you can see I have voice I am currently editing so I'll
apply it this the volume is high so I'll adjust it to around six now it is fine channel it's making it sounds good now let's apply this the main effect is applied now coming back to the effects we are going to apply the fifth effect
first reset it to the default settings everything is the same I just made a small adjustment to the threshold option all you need to do is adjust it ideally between 14 and 18 set it and play your
voice once it sounds correct to you save the preset and apply it now we're 80% we're close to the ending it's time to add the last effect simply click on reverb these settings can be a bit confusing but there's no need to worry
I'm here to guide you since there wasn't any option to reset the settings let me just show them to you as they are first adjust room size as if you're selecting recording adjust it based on your needs ideally around 150 keep the Reverb time
between 4 and 6 seconds and set the damping around 50 to 60 set the input band width to zero and the dry level to zero as for the reflection level let me play it to show you how it affects your voice heal related videos millions of
views now that you have an idea of what it does adjust it to around 25 to 30 similarly set the tail level according to your preference around 20 if you settings in case they work for your AI voice I won't Sue anyone so when you are
done with your settings play your voice after applying them and when you are satisfied save them as a preset just like I did here by the name of your AI voice let's apply this the Reverb effect has been applied
finally our AI voice editing is complete the super realistic AI voice over is ready let me play it for you look at this channel it's making simple health related videos and getting millions of views this is how you can edit your AI
voice and make it super realistic when you're done with editing Simply Save save with file manager otherwise you won't be able to find it again as the screen was rotating I skipped this part now all you need to do is import this to
your editing application and use it for your content creation purposes let's do some important talking look I showed you everything related to AI voice editing I how you make it work for your voice
point it is not necessarily compulsory for monetization you can monetize your channel even without it as long as your content has a human touch you can do the editing if you want to make your voice
sound unique and different moreover it's not compulsory to edit every AI voice because some AI voices don't need any editing and are already of good quality now you have learned the AI voice editing process but it will be
multiplied by zero if you haven't watched this video like if you don't script the way you want with humanlike emotions then you have just wasted 8 minutes now click on this video If you want to get their value back
