Step-by-step guide

How to Use Fix Audiobook Pronunciation

Start for free — no credit card, no software to install.

  1. Find the mispronounced word

    Listen for the name or unusual term that reads wrong in a generated chapter.
  2. Respell it phonetically in the text

    Edit the manuscript so the word is spelled the way it should sound, syllable by syllable.
  3. Regenerate just that chapter

    Re-render the affected chapter rather than the whole book to hear the fix.
  4. Keep the respelling for future chapters

    Reuse the same phonetic spelling anywhere the word appears again in the manuscript.

Features & Capabilities

Everything you need to create professional voiceovers — in one tool.

  • No lexicon or phoneme field

    There isn't a pronunciation dictionary to edit — correction happens in the manuscript text.
  • Text normalization for the rest

    Numbers, dates, currency and abbreviations are already expanded to spoken form automatically.
  • Chapter-level regeneration

    Re-render one corrected chapter without regenerating chapters that already sound right.
  • Respelling persists in the source

    Because the fix lives in the manuscript text, it applies every time that word appears.

About this tool

Everything you need to know about Fix Audiobook Pronunciation

There's no pronunciation lexicon, phoneme field or IPA input in this product — if a name or an invented word is read wrong, you can't drop in a phonetic spelling through a settings panel. What you can do is respell the word phonetically in the manuscript text itself, regenerate that chapter, and the corrected spelling reads right from then on, every time the word appears.

FAQ

Fix Audiobook Pronunciation — FAQ

Something not covered here? Contact us · support@vocallab.ai

Is there a pronunciation dictionary or IPA input I can use?

No, there's no lexicon, phoneme field or IPA input in this product — correction happens by editing the manuscript text.

How do I actually fix a name that's read wrong?

Respell it phonetically where it appears in the manuscript, then regenerate that chapter to hear the corrected version.

Do I have to regenerate the whole audiobook to fix one word?

No, regenerate just the affected chapter — the rest of the book stays exactly as it was.

Does the tool already handle numbers and abbreviations automatically?

Yes, text normalization expands numbers, dates, currency and abbreviations to spoken form by default, so those don't need respelling.

Will the respelling look strange if a reader sees the manuscript text later?

It can — most authors keep the phonetic respelling in a working copy for narration and the original spelling in the version they publish.
