Technique
Prompt tips
- Punctuate for pacingFull stops and commas are your timing controls. Write the script the way you want it read.
- Audition before committingRun a short paragraph across three voices before rendering the whole script.
- Spell out awkward wordsWrite acronyms and unusual names phonetically if the first pass mispronounces them.
- Break long scripts into sectionsShorter runs are easier to re render when one line is wrong.
- Keep one voice per speakerConsistency across a project comes from reusing the same voice, not from a similar one.
Mechanism
How ElevenLabs Multilingual V2 works
You choose a voice and supply the script, and the model renders speech from the text, billed by the characters you send rather than by the seconds you get back. Punctuation and paragraphing are the main levers on delivery, which is why a script written for the ear reads better than one written for the page.
