## What it does

The skill accepts plain text prompts and routes them to suitable audio engines. Speech synthesis uses ElevenLabs models like `eleven_multilingual_v2` or low-latency `eleven_turbo_v2_5`. Sound effects and voice cloning from audio samples also run through ElevenLabs, while background music runs through fal.ai via `cassetteai-music`.

Behind the scenes, it relies on an ElevenLabs MCP server on port 8124, started using `bash {baseDir}/tools/start_server.sh`. Basic text-to-speech and SFX require `ELEVENLABS_API_KEY` in `~/.openclaw/openclaw.json`. Setting `FAL_KEY` is optional and only needed for music generation.

Audio generation fails immediately if you do not provide an ElevenLabs token. If you hit regional DNS blocks on Vercel endpoints, you can self-host the proxy from the `proxy/` directory and set `AUDIOMIND_PROXY_URL`.

# 🎙️ VideoAgent Audio Studio

**Use when:** User asks to generate speech, narrate text, create a voice-over, compose music, or produce a sound effect.

VideoAgent Audio Studio is a smart audio dispatcher. It analyzes your request and routes it to the best available model — ElevenLabs for speech and music, fal.ai for fast SFX — and returns a ready-to-use audio URL.

---

## Quick Reference

| Request Type | Best Model | Latency |
|---|---|---|
| Narrate text / Voice-over | `elevenlabs-tts-v3` | ~3s |
| Low-latency TTS (real-time) | `elevenlabs-tts-turbo` | <1s |
| Background music | `cassetteai-music` | ~15s |
| Sound effect | `elevenlabs-sfx` | ~5s |
| Clone a voice from audio | `elevenlabs-voice-clone` | ~10s |

---

## How to Use

### 1. Start the AudioMind server (once per session)

```bash
bash {baseDir}/tools/start_server.sh
```

This starts the ElevenLabs MCP server on port 8124. The skill uses it for all audio generation.

### 2. Route the request

Analyze the user's request and call the appropriate tool via the MCP server:

**Text-to-Speech (TTS)**

When user asks to "narrate", "read aloud", "say", or "create a voice-over":

```
Use MCP tool: text_to_speech
  text: "<the text to narrate>"
  voice_id: "JBFqnCBsd6RMkjVDRZzb"   # Default: "George" (professional, neutral)
  model_id: "eleven_multilingual_v2"   # Use "eleven_turbo_v2_5" for low latency
```

**Music Generation**

When user asks to "compose", "create background music", or "make a soundtrack":

```
Use MCP tool: text_to_sound_effects  (via cassetteai-music on fal.ai)
  prompt: "<music description, e.g. 'upbeat lo-fi hip hop, 90 seconds'>"
  duration_seconds: <duration>
```

**Sound Effect (SFX)**

When user asks for a specific sound (e.g., "a door creaking", "rain on a window"):

```
Use MCP tool: text_to_sound_effects
  text: "<sound description>"
  duration_seconds: <1-22>
```

**Voice Cloning**

When user provides an audio sample and wants to clone the voice:

```
Use MCP tool: voice_add
  name: "<voice name>"
  files: ["<audio_file_url>"]
```
