A managed-services AV company can clone the voice of its lead programmer for a tier-1 troubleshooting line. A higher-ed AV team can clone the campus AV director for a classroom support hotline. AVCodex uses ElevenLabs Instant Voice Cloning. No training phase. Ready in seconds. > **Warning:** Voice cloning requires a Studio plan or higher. ## [How it works# ](#how-it-works) 1. Record or upload a short audio sample (1 to 2 minutes). 2. ElevenLabs analyzes vocal characteristics (pitch, timbre, prosody, accent). 3. A custom voice is generated instantly. 4. Select it as your voice agent's voice. Cloned voices are shared across all agents in your AVCodex organization. ## [Creating a custom voice# ](#creating-a-custom-voice) **1\. Open voice settings** Go to your agent's **Build** page and open the **Voice** card. Voice mode must be enabled. **2\. Add custom voice** Find the **Custom Voices** section and click **Add Custom Voice**. **3\. Record or upload audio** Choose one method. **Browser recording** (recommended): - Click Record and speak naturally for 1 to 2 minutes. - Re-record if needed. **File upload**: - Upload a pre-recorded audio file. - Supported formats: WAV, MP3, M4A, OGG, WebM, FLAC. - Maximum file size: 50MB. **4\. Name and create** Give your voice a memorable name ("Service Manager Rachel", "Programming Lead Danny", "Front Desk Persona"). Click **Create Voice**. The voice is available immediately. **5\. Select the voice** In the voice selection dropdown, your custom voices appear at the top. Select one to use with the agent. ## [Recording tips for best quality# ](#recording-tips-for-best-quality) The quality of the clone depends entirely on the quality of your sample. ### [Duration# ](#duration) - **Optimal:** 1 to 2 minutes. - **Too short** (under 30 seconds): may lack vocal variety. - **Too long** (over 5 minutes): can introduce instability. - The AI captures characteristics best from concise, focused samples. ### [Environment# ](#environment) - Record in a quiet room with soft furnishings. Curtains and carpets reduce echo. - Turn off fans, AC, and notifications. - Close windows to block outside noise. - The AI replicates everything it hears. Background noise becomes part of the voice. A treated voiceover booth or a small carpeted office is ideal. The rack room is not. ### [Microphone technique# ](#microphone-technique) - Position the mic about 20cm away (two fists). - Speak slightly off-axis to reduce plosives (hard P's and B's). - Use a pop filter if you have one. - Avoid breathing directly into the mic. - A Shure MV7 or similar dynamic broadcast mic is a good baseline. The conference room ceiling array is not. ### [Audio quality# ](#audio-quality) - Peak levels: -6dB to -3dB. Loud parts must not clip. - Avoid clipping and distortion at all costs. The AI cannot recover from it. - Standard sample rate (44.1kHz or 48kHz) works well. ### [Delivery# ](#delivery) - Hold a consistent tone and energy throughout. - Don't switch between animated and subdued delivery. - Read with natural pacing. Not robotic, not theatrical. - Use your own writing for a natural rhythm. A page from one of your SOPs or a section of a programming guide read aloud works well. ## [Managing custom voices# ](#managing-custom-voices) - **Delete a voice.** Remove it from your organization's library at any time. This also removes it from ElevenLabs. - **Multiple voices.** Create as many custom voices as your plan allows. - **Cross-agent usage.** Every agent in the organization can use any custom voice. - **Audio privacy.** Your recording is stored encrypted and never shared publicly. ## [Troubleshooting# ](#troubleshooting) **Voice doesn't sound right?** - Re-record with cleaner audio (less background noise, no clipping). - Try a longer sample (aim for 1 to 2 minutes of natural speech). - Hold consistent tone throughout the recording. **Voice not appearing in selection?** - Confirm creation completed successfully. - Refresh the voice settings page. - Verify you're on a Studio plan or higher. **Upload failing?** - Check file size (max 50MB). - Verify the file format (WAV, MP3, M4A, OGG, WebM, FLAC). - Try a different format or re-export the audio. > **Note:** For voice agent configuration, see the Voice Agents guide. \*AVCodex · Your AV expertise.
