Description

Script to Voice Generator converts formatted .txt or .md script files into fully voiced audio using Kokoro ONNX — a high-quality, local text-to-speech engine that runs entirely on your machine.

No API keys. No cloud account. No usage limits. No costs. Everything is offline.

Each speaker in your script gets their own voice, pitch, speed, and audio effects. Assign Radio, Reverb, Distortion, Telephone, Robot Voice, Cheap Mic, Underwater, Megaphone, Worn Tape, Intercom, Alien Voice, Cave, or Pitch Shift effects per character at Off / Mild / Medium / Strong levels.

Two bonus toggles — FMSU (brutal digital corruption) and Reverse — round out the toolkit. Combine effects freely for distinct character identities.

Kokoro includes 49 built-in voices across 8 languages — English (US and UK), Mandarin Chinese, Spanish, French, Hindi, Italian, and Brazilian Portuguese — and that's just the starting point. The built-in Voice Blender lets you interpolate between two or three base voices at custom ratios to create entirely new characters.

With 49 voices, there are over 19,000 unique blend combinations before you even touch the ratio sliders — and since every blend is a continuous spectrum (not a fixed preset), the actual space of distinct-sounding voices you can craft is effectively limitless. Blended voices are saved and appear in every speaker panel, ready to use like any built-in voice.

System requirements: Windows 11 (tested). Windows 10 untested, try at your own risk. No Linux or macOS build available. Uses DirectML — automatically runs on your GPU if available, CPU otherwise, no setup required.

The generator produces:

Individual audio per each spoken line — clean (TTS only) and effects-processed versions

All (effects-enabled) clips merged into a fully edited and smartly paced audio file, not normalized (true audio, better for media/games)

All (effects-enabled) clips merged into a fully edited and smartly paced audio file, loudness normalized (even audio, better for podcasts)

Reference .txt file with filenames, line numbers, and spoken content for every clip

Features:

49 built-in Kokoro voices across 8 languages (English US/UK, Chinese, Spanish, French, Hindi, Italian, Portuguese)

Voice Blender — 19,000+ blend combinations from 49 base voices, with continuous ratio control; saved blends work like any built-in voice

Multilingual TTS — correct language phonemization selected automatically per voice

13 audio effects — most with Off / Mild / Medium / Strong presets

2 bonus toggles: FMSU (brutal corruption) and Reverse

Sound effect events (play/stop/loop) placed in the merge timeline
