ElevenLabs Text-to-Speech

Overview

Generate professional audio files from text using ElevenLabs' advanced text-to-speech API. The skill provides pre-configured voice presets with sensible defaults, voice parameter customization, and direct access to the

scripts/elevenlabs_tts.py

script for programmatic control.

Quick Start

To generate audio from text:

Ensure the
```
.env
```
file contains a valid
```
ELEVENLABS_API_KEY
```

Execute the script with text:

python scripts/elevenlabs_tts.py "Your text here"

Specify voice and output:

python scripts/elevenlabs_tts.py "Text" --voice adam --output audio/output.mp3

Voice Presets

Seven pre-configured voices are available. See

references/api_reference.md

for complete voice descriptions:

```
rachel
```
(default) - Clear, professional female
```
adam
```
- Deep, authoritative male
```
bella
```
- Warm, friendly female
```
elli
```
- Young, enthusiastic female
```
josh
```
- Friendly, conversational male
```
arnold
```
- Deep, powerful male
```
ava
```
- Expressive, dynamic female

Parameters

Text

The text to convert to speech. Any length is supported.

Voice Selection

Specify voice using preset name (e.g.,

rachel

,

adam

) or direct ElevenLabs voice ID.

Voice Parameters

stability (0.0-1.0, default 0.5): Lower values create expressive variation; higher values ensure consistency
similarity_boost (0.0-1.0, default 0.75): Higher values maintain closer adherence to voice characteristics

Output

Specify the output file path. Default is

output.mp3

. Directories are created automatically.

Usage Examples

Basic Python Usage

python

from scripts.elevenlabs_tts import generate_speech

path = generate_speech(
    text="Hello, this is a test message",
    voice_id="rachel"
)

Command Line

bash

# With default voice
python scripts/elevenlabs_tts.py "Generate this text"

# With custom voice and stability
python scripts/elevenlabs_tts.py "Different voice" --voice adam --stability 0.7

# To custom output path
python scripts/elevenlabs_tts.py "Save here" --output audio/narration.mp3

# List available voices
python scripts/elevenlabs_tts.py "" --list-voices
