Why Change AI Voice Accents or Language Variant / Dialect?

Changing the accent or language of your AI voice enhances the personalization and localization of your videos, helping them resonate better with specific audiences. This feature is particularly valuable when creating content for different regions or adapting the tone to fit cultural preferences.

If multiple languages share the same written text, such as Dutch, AI Studios will default to the more globally recognized variant—like Netherlands Dutch over Belgium Dutch—unless otherwise specified.

How to Change the Accent or Dialect of an AI Voice in AI Studios

  1. Enter Your Project:

    • Open AI Studios and access the project you want to edit.

  2. Access the AI Voice Menu:

    • In the script editor, navigate to the top right corner and click on the AI voice selection area.

    • When the AI voice pop-up appears, locate the dropdown labeled "Default Accent" and click to expand the menu.

  3. Choose Accent or Language:

    • A dropdown menu will appear.

    • You can select from different accents for the same language. For example:

      • Dutch: Choose between Belgium Dutch or Netherlands Dutch.

      • English: Select from options like British English or Australian English.

  4. Apply the Change:

    • Click on the desired accent or language, and the AI voice will automatically update to reflect your selection.

Best Practices for Accent and Dialect Selection:

  • Match the Audience:
    Choose accents or languages that best resonate with your target audience.

  • Maintain Consistency:
    Use the same accent or language throughout the video to maintain uniformity.

  • Test Before Finalizing:
    Listen to the AI voice after selecting the desired accent or language to confirm it fits your content.
