Adjusting Parameters

日本語 / English
VoiSona Talk supports a wide range of adjustments, from parameters that affect the entire sentence to detailed settings such as speaking style and accent.

Adjusting Global Parameters

You can adjust parameters that affect the entire sentence for each line.
  1. Click the "Parameter" button to open the panel.
  1. In the global parameter area, adjust the values by entering numbers directly or using the sliders.
ℹ️
Adjustable Parameters
  • SPD Speed.
  • VOL Volume.
  • PIT Pitch.
  • INTO Intonation. Lower values create a flatter tone, while higher values produce more expressive intonation.
  • ALP Alpha details. Lower values make the voice sound more childlike, while higher values make it sound more mature.
  • HUS Huskiness. Higher values result in a huskier voice.

Adjusting Sentence Style

You can mix multiple styles such as Happy and Angry in any ratio you prefer.
  1. Click the "Parameter" button to open the panel.
  1. In the style area, click the tab in the upper right to choose either the pie chart or bar chart view.
  1. Adjust the ratio of each style by entering numbers directly or manipulating the chart.
ℹ️
About the Ratio of Styles
When combining styles, the final output is based on the ratio of each specified value to the total. For example, combining "Happy 100" and "Angry 100" results in a 50/50 mix. This means "Happy 100 + Angry 100" and "Happy 50 + Angry 50" produce the same result.
ℹ️
The available styles and number of styles vary depending on the voice library.
