How to Create a Dreamer TTS Voice

The ElevenLabs Voice Library offers a variety of voices that would typically match a "Dreamer" character in a professional setting:

These voice characteristics should help you identify the right professional voice for each archetype in the ElevenLabs Voice Library.

To create a TTS output that sounds 'Dreamer-like', you'll need to adjust the stability and similarity sliders to produce an inspired and hopeful tone. Here’s how you might modify your routine:

• Stability Slider: Set the stability slider to a moderate value, around 50-70. This ensures a balance between consistency and natural variation, enhancing the visionary nature of the voice.
• Similarity Slider: Set the similarity slider to a higher value, around 70-90. This ensures a consistent and engaging tone.

Using the Exaggeration Slider

How the Exaggeration Slider Works

The exaggeration slider in ElevenLabs' TTS tool adjusts the expressiveness of the AI-generated voice. By increasing the exaggeration, the emotional cues in the speech are more pronounced, making the output sound more hopeful and inspired.

For a Dreamer-like Tone

To make the voice sound more Dreamer-like, set the exaggeration slider to a moderate value. This will enhance the visionary and hopeful characteristics, making the voice sound more idealistic and inspired.

Example Routine

• Set the exaggeration slider to a value between 50-70. This amplifies the Dreamer characteristics of the voice.
• Listen to the output and adjust as necessary. You may need to experiment with different values to find the perfect balance for your specific use case.

Optimize Punctuation and Pauses for Dreamer Voices

Punctuation

Punctuation plays a significant role in defining the tone and pitch of the Dreamer's voice. Here’s how you can use different punctuation marks to enhance the Dreamer voice:

• Commas (,): Use commas to create brief pauses, adding a reflective and hopeful pace to the speech.
• Periods (.): Use periods to end sentences with a sense of calm and inspiration.
• Ellipses (...): Use ellipses to create a sense of wonder or contemplation, adding a visionary tone.

Capital Letters

• Emphasis: Use capitalization to emphasize key words that convey hope and vision. For instance, “I DREAM of a better future.”
• Highlighting Emotion: Capitalize words that underline the Dreamer’s hopeful feelings. For example, “We CAN achieve this.”

Text Formatting and Structure

• Short Sentences: Use shorter sentences for clarity and to convey a more direct or inspired tone.
• Paragraph Breaks: Use paragraph breaks to indicate a change in thought or emotion, which can help create a more natural speech flow.

Emotional Cues and Stage Directions

• Emotional Annotations: Include annotations like [hopefully], [inspired], [visionary] to specify the intended emotion or tone. For example: "We can change the world... [hopefully]"
• Stage Directions: Include brief stage directions to suggest how something should be said, e.g., "The Dreamer gazed at the horizon, 'This is our future,' she said [inspired]."

Contextual Clarity

• Descriptive Context: Add descriptions or context before dialogue to set the scene. For example: "The Dreamer, with a hopeful gaze, exclaimed, 'This is our future!' [visionarily]"
• Consistent Tone: Maintain a consistent tone throughout the script to help the AI understand the overall emotional arc.

Testing and Iteration

• Listen and Adjust: Generate the speech, listen carefully, and adjust the text as needed to achieve the desired emotional effect.
• Experiment: Try different combinations of punctuation, capitalization, and annotations to see what works best for your specific use case.
