Step-by-step guide

How to Use Multi-Voice Audiobook

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

  1. Upload the manuscript

    Add an EPUB, MOBI/AZW, DOCX, TXT or PDF with selectable text — any of 10 formats; a scanned PDF needs a text-based file instead.
  2. Review the detected cast

    Chapters stream in as the analysis finishes finding every speaking character and attributing their lines.
  3. Assign a voice per character

    Pick a voice from the library, or a cloned voice, for the narrator and for each named character.
  4. Generate the book

    Render the whole manuscript or selected chapters, then export as one file or per chapter.

What Can You Create with Multi-Voice Audiobook?

From TikTok to podcasts — here's where creators use this tool most.

About this tool

Everything you need to know about Multi-Voice Audiobook

A multi-voice audiobook assigns a distinct voice to the narrator and to each named character, so dialogue reads as a cast instead of one performer switching cadence between lines. The analysis pass reads your manuscript, works out who is speaking on every line, and streams in a chapter-by-chapter cast list — you pick a voice per character from the library or a clone before generating the book.

FAQ

Multi-Voice Audiobook — FAQ

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

How does the tool know which character says which line?

An analysis pass reads the manuscript, splits it into chapters, and works out who is speaking for every line before you cast anyone.

Can I reassign a voice after casting?

Yes, change any character's voice and regenerate just the affected chapters instead of rendering the whole book again.

Is there a limit to how many characters I can cast?

No fixed cap — cast as many named characters as the analysis detects across your manuscript.

Can I use a cloned voice for one character and library voices for the rest?

Yes, a cloned voice can sit in the same cast list alongside voices picked straight from the library.

Does casting a full ensemble slow down generation?

No, generation still runs per chapter or across the whole book regardless of how many characters are in the cast.
