# ElevenLabs Audio Generation

Requires `ELEVENLABS_API_KEY` in `.env`.

## Text-to-Speech

```python
from elevenlabs.client import ElevenLabs
from elevenlabs import save, VoiceSettings
import os

client = ElevenLabs(api_key=os.getenv("ELEVENLABS_API_KEY"))

audio = client.text_to_speech.convert(
    text="Welcome to my video!",
    voice_id="JBFqnCBsd6RMkjVDRZzb",
    model_id="eleven_multilingual_v2",
    voice_settings=VoiceSettings(
        stability=0.5,
        similarity_boost=0.75,
        style=0.5,
        speed=1.0
    )
)
save(audio, "voiceover.mp3")
```

### Models

| Model | Quality | SSML Support | Notes |
|-------|---------|--------------|-------|
| `eleven_multilingual_v2` | Highest consistency | None | Stable, production-ready, 29 languages. Toolkit default; supports style + speed |
| `eleven_v4` | Most expressive | None (audio tags, IPA) | Newest (released 2026-09-28), 90+ languages, best clone accuracy. Stability + similarity only, no style/speed |
| `eleven_flash_v2_5` | Good | `<break>`, `<phoneme>` | Fastest, cheapest; supports pause/pronunciation tags |
| `eleven_v3` | Expressive | None | Previous generation — prefer v4 |

**Choose:** multilingual_v2 for reliability and speed/style control, v4 for maximum expressiveness and cloned voices (test a few takes), flash for SSML control.

**Deprecated:** `eleven_turbo_v2_5` → use `eleven_flash_v2_5` (same quality, lower latency; see [deprecated models](https://elevenlabs.io/docs/overview/models#deprecated-models)). The toolkit still accepts `--model eleven_turbo_v2_5`: it prints a one-line warning and sends `eleven_flash_v2_5`.

### Eleven v4

Released 2026-09-28 ([changelog](https://elevenlabs.io/docs/changelog/2026/9/28), [model page](https://elevenlabs.io/docs/overview/capabilities/text-to-speech/eleven-v4#model-variants)). The toolkit calls v4 through the **Text to Dialogue** API with one input (the narrator voice), as ElevenLabs recommends for content creation and long-form audio:

```python
from elevenlabs import DialogueInput

audio = client.text_to_dialogue.convert(
    inputs=[DialogueInput(text="[warm] Welcome to my video!", voice_id="JBFqnCBsd6RMkjVDRZzb")],
    model_id="eleven_v4",
    settings={"stability": 0.5, "similarity": 0.75},  # the only two settings v4 takes
)
save(audio, "voiceover.mp3")
```

- `uv run tools/voiceover.py --model eleven_v4 ...` (and `redub.py --model eleven_v4`) do this for you, warn once that `--style`/`--speed` are ignored, and split text over ~2,000 chars per request (the reliable dialogue limit) at sentence boundaries. Pace with `--max-wpm` instead of `--speed`.
- `client.text_to_dialogue.convert_with_timestamps(...)` returns the same character alignment as TTS `convert_with_timestamps`, so `redub.py --sync` works with v4 and sends the same stability + similarity.
- Pass `settings` as a dict: SDK versions before 2.69 type it with a stability-only model. The API reads `similarity` there since 2026-09-28 (it rejects an out-of-range value with a 422). Text to Dialogue needs `elevenlabs>=2.21`.
- Direct delivery with audio tags (`[whispering]`, `[warm]`, `[sigh]`) and punctuation. Write tags that clearly describe the voice, because v4 can also read a tag as a sound effect.
- `eleven_v4_turbo` is the real-time variant, available only over the Text to Dialogue WebSocket. The toolkit doesn't use it, since offline renders don't benefit from low latency.

### Voice Settings by Style

| Style | stability | similarity | style | speed |
|-------|-----------|------------|-------|-------|
| Natural/professional | 0.75-0.85 | 0.9 | 0.0-0.1 | 1.0 |
| Conversational | 0.5-0.6 | 0.85 | 0.3-0.4 | 0.9-1.0 |
| Energetic/YouTuber | 0.3-0.5 | 0.75 | 0.5-0.7 | 1.0-1.1 |

### Pauses Between Sections

**With flash models:** Use SSML break tags inline:
```
...end of section. <break time="1.5s" /> Start of next...
```
Max 3 seconds per break. Excessive breaks can cause speed artifacts.

**With multilingual_v2 / v3 / v4:** No SSML support. Options:
- Paragraph breaks (blank lines) — creates ~0.3-0.5s natural pause
- v3/v4: audio tags such as `[long pause]`
- Post-process with ffmpeg: split audio and insert silence

**WARNING:** `...` (ellipsis) is NOT a reliable pause — it can be vocalized as a word/sound. Do not use ellipsis as a pause mechanism.

### Pronunciation Control

**Phonetic spelling (any model):** Write words as you want them pronounced:
- `Janus` → `Jan-us`
- `nginx` → `engine-x`
- Use dashes, capitals, apostrophes to guide pronunciation

**SSML phoneme tags (flash only):**
```
<phoneme alphabet="ipa" ph="ˈdʒeɪnəs">Janus</phoneme>
```

**IPA in v4:** no tags needed. Wrap the IPA in slashes and double quotes in place of the word:
```
The term "/ˌbaɪoʊˈkemɪstri/" refers to the study of chemical processes.
```

### Iterative Workflow

1. Generate → listen → identify pronunciation/pacing issues
2. Adjust: phonetic spellings, break tags, voice settings
3. Regenerate. If pauses aren't precise enough, add silence in post with ffmpeg rather than fighting the TTS engine.

## Speech to Text (Scribe)

```python
with open("voiceover.mp3", "rb") as f:
    result = client.speech_to_text.convert(file=f, model_id="scribe_v2", tag_audio_events=False)
words = [w for w in result.words if w.type == "word"]  # .text, .start, .end (seconds)
```

`scribe_v2` is current and the toolkit default. `scribe_v1` is deprecated, with removal announced for 2026-07-09 ([changelog](https://elevenlabs.io/docs/changelog/2026/6/8)), but still answers, so `--stt-model scribe_v1` (redub) and `--model scribe_v1` (align_captions) still run it, with a warning. `scribe_v1_experimental`, a 2025 preview of scribe_v1, is accepted with a warning and sent as `scribe_v2`. The toolkit uses Scribe in `redub.py` (transcribe + `--sync` word timing) and `align_captions.py`.

## Voice Cloning

### Instant Voice Clone

```python
with open("sample.mp3", "rb") as f:
    voice = client.voices.ivc.create(
        name="My Voice",
        files=[f],
        remove_background_noise=True
    )
print(f"Voice ID: {voice.voice_id}")
```

- Use `client.voices.ivc.create()` (not `client.voices.clone()`)
- Pass file handles in binary mode (`"rb"`), not paths
- Convert m4a first: `ffmpeg -i input.m4a -codec:a libmp3lame -qscale:a 2 output.mp3`
- Multiple samples (2-3 clips) improve accuracy
- Save voice ID for reuse

**Professional Voice Clone:** Requires Creator plan+, 30+ min audio. See [reference.md](reference.md).

## Sound Effects

Max 22 seconds per generation.

```python
result = client.text_to_sound_effects.convert(
    text="Thunder rumbling followed by heavy rain",
    duration_seconds=10,
    prompt_influence=0.3
)
with open("thunder.mp3", "wb") as f:
    for chunk in result:
        f.write(chunk)
```

**Prompt tips:** Be specific — "Heavy footsteps on wooden floorboards, slow and deliberate, with creaking"

## Music Generation

10 seconds to 5 minutes. Use `client.music.compose()` (not `.generate()`).

```python
result = client.music.compose(
    prompt="Upbeat indie rock, catchy guitar riff, energetic drums, travel vlog",
    music_length_ms=60000,
    force_instrumental=True
)
with open("music.mp3", "wb") as f:
    for chunk in result:
        f.write(chunk)
```

**Prompt structure:** Genre, mood, instruments, tempo, use case. Add "no vocals" or use `force_instrumental=True` for background music.

## Remotion Integration

### Complete Workflow: Script to Synchronized Scene

```
VOICEOVER-SCRIPT.md → voiceover.py → public/audio/ → Remotion composition
        ↓                  ↓               ↓                 ↓
  Scene narration    Generate MP3    Audio files     <Audio> component
  with durations     per scene       with timing     synced to scenes
```

### Step 1: Generate Per-Scene Audio

Use the toolkit's voiceover tool to generate audio for each scene:

```bash
# Generate voiceover files for each scene
uv run tools/voiceover.py --scene-dir public/audio/scenes --json

# Output:
# public/audio/scenes/
#   ├── scene-01-title.mp3
#   ├── scene-02-problem.mp3
#   ├── scene-03-solution.mp3
#   └── manifest.json  (durations for each file)
```

The `manifest.json` contains timing info:
```json
{
  "scenes": [
    { "file": "scene-01-title.mp3", "duration": 4.2 },
    { "file": "scene-02-problem.mp3", "duration": 12.8 },
    { "file": "scene-03-solution.mp3", "duration": 15.3 }
  ],
  "totalDuration": 32.3
}
```

### Step 2: Use Audio in Remotion Composition

```tsx
// src/Composition.tsx
import { Audio, staticFile, Series, useVideoConfig } from 'remotion';

// Import scene components
import { TitleSlide } from './scenes/TitleSlide';
import { ProblemSlide } from './scenes/ProblemSlide';
import { SolutionSlide } from './scenes/SolutionSlide';

// Scene durations (from manifest.json, converted to frames at 30fps)
const SCENE_DURATIONS = {
  title: Math.ceil(4.2 * 30),      // 126 frames
  problem: Math.ceil(12.8 * 30),   // 384 frames
  solution: Math.ceil(15.3 * 30),  // 459 frames
};

export const MainComposition: React.FC = () => {
  return (
    <>
      {/* Scene sequence */}
      <Series>
        <Series.Sequence durationInFrames={SCENE_DURATIONS.title}>
          <TitleSlide />
        </Series.Sequence>
        <Series.Sequence durationInFrames={SCENE_DURATIONS.problem}>
          <ProblemSlide />
        </Series.Sequence>
        <Series.Sequence durationInFrames={SCENE_DURATIONS.solution}>
          <SolutionSlide />
        </Series.Sequence>
      </Series>

      {/* Audio track - plays continuously across all scenes */}
      <Audio src={staticFile('audio/voiceover.mp3')} volume={1} />

      {/* Optional: Background music at lower volume */}
      <Audio src={staticFile('audio/music.mp3')} volume={0.15} />
    </>
  );
};
```

### Step 3: Per-Scene Audio (Alternative)

For more control, add audio to each scene individually:

```tsx
// src/scenes/ProblemSlide.tsx
import { Audio, staticFile, useCurrentFrame } from 'remotion';

export const ProblemSlide: React.FC = () => {
  const frame = useCurrentFrame();

  return (
    <div style={{ /* slide styles */ }}>
      <h1>The Problem</h1>
      {/* Scene content */}

      {/* Audio starts when this scene starts (frame 0 of this sequence) */}
      <Audio src={staticFile('audio/scenes/scene-02-problem.mp3')} />
    </div>
  );
};
```

### Syncing Visuals to Voiceover

Calculate scene duration from audio, not the other way around:

```tsx
// src/config/timing.ts
import manifest from '../../public/audio/scenes/manifest.json';

const FPS = 30;

// Convert audio durations to frame counts
export const sceneDurations = manifest.scenes.reduce((acc, scene) => {
  const name = scene.file.replace(/^scene-\d+-/, '').replace('.mp3', '');
  acc[name] = Math.ceil(scene.duration * FPS);
  return acc;
}, {} as Record<string, number>);

// Usage in composition:
// <Series.Sequence durationInFrames={sceneDurations.title}>
```

### Audio Timing Patterns

```tsx
import { Audio, Sequence, interpolate, useCurrentFrame } from 'remotion';

// Fade in audio
export const FadeInAudio: React.FC<{ src: string; fadeFrames?: number }> = ({
  src,
  fadeFrames = 30
}) => {
  const frame = useCurrentFrame();
  const volume = interpolate(frame, [0, fadeFrames], [0, 1], {
    extrapolateRight: 'clamp',
  });
  return <Audio src={src} volume={volume} />;
};

// Delayed audio start
export const DelayedAudio: React.FC<{ src: string; delayFrames: number }> = ({
  src,
  delayFrames
}) => (
  <Sequence from={delayFrames}>
    <Audio src={src} />
  </Sequence>
);

// Usage:
// <FadeInAudio src={staticFile('audio/music.mp3')} fadeFrames={60} />
// <DelayedAudio src={staticFile('audio/sfx/whoosh.mp3')} delayFrames={45} />
```

### Voiceover + Demo Video Sync

When a scene has both voiceover and demo video:

```tsx
import { Audio, OffthreadVideo, staticFile, useVideoConfig } from 'remotion';

export const DemoScene: React.FC = () => {
  const { durationInFrames, fps } = useVideoConfig();

  // Calculate playback rate to fit demo into voiceover duration
  const demoDuration = 45; // seconds (original demo length)
  const sceneDuration = durationInFrames / fps; // seconds (from voiceover)
  const playbackRate = demoDuration / sceneDuration;

  return (
    <>
      <OffthreadVideo
        src={staticFile('demos/feature-demo.mp4')}
        playbackRate={playbackRate}
      />
      <Audio src={staticFile('audio/scenes/scene-04-demo.mp3')} />
    </>
  );
};
```

### Error Handling

```tsx
import { Audio, staticFile, delayRender, continueRender } from 'remotion';
import { useEffect, useState } from 'react';

export const SafeAudio: React.FC<{ src: string }> = ({ src }) => {
  const [handle] = useState(() => delayRender());
  const [audioReady, setAudioReady] = useState(false);

  useEffect(() => {
    const audio = new window.Audio(src);
    audio.oncanplaythrough = () => {
      setAudioReady(true);
      continueRender(handle);
    };
    audio.onerror = () => {
      console.error(`Failed to load audio: ${src}`);
      continueRender(handle); // Continue without audio rather than hang
    };
  }, [src, handle]);

  if (!audioReady) return null;
  return <Audio src={src} />;
};
```

### Toolkit Command: /generate-voiceover

The `/generate-voiceover` command handles the full workflow:

```
/generate-voiceover

1. Reads VOICEOVER-SCRIPT.md
2. Extracts narration for each scene
3. Generates audio via ElevenLabs API
4. Saves to public/audio/scenes/
5. Creates manifest.json with durations
6. Updates project.json with timing info
```
