German Text to Audio

A Stuttgart workshop pastes Friday's overtime note, drafted in English, so the late shift hears it in German while they are still in ear protectors at the bench.

The situation

The note names a hall, a time, and a supervisor. Compound words such as Spätschicht should be one word if you type the German yourself. If you type English and ask for German, listen to whether the hall name was translated into a common noun instead of left as a proper name.

The reading

English in, German out, unless the draft is already German and you only want it spoken. Preview the female or male stock voice in German before you spend credits. A clone needs a dry sample of one speaker, at least three seconds, and the permission statement.

What to correct

Proper names are the usual repair. If the hall becomes a translated word, put the name back on that line and speak the script again. The overtime sentence can stay in the script. Save the M4A.

Using the tool on this page

  • Paste the text. The language it is written in is read from the words. Set the language it should be spoken in. The same language speaks the words as written.
  • Studio and Mood voices play a short sample in Chinese, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish. Hindi, Arabic, Turkish, Polish, Dutch, Swedish, Norwegian, Finnish and Hebrew need a recording of 3 to 15 seconds from someone you have permission to copy. A longer sample keeps the first 12 seconds.
  • The reading is priced like a video dub: 50 credits per minute (5¢), minimum 2 minutes per file. A short paragraph still meets the 2-minute minimum.
  • When it finishes, the reading stays on this page. Edit the script and speak it again: that is a new reading of the whole script at the same dubbing price, including the 2-minute minimum. Download the audio. Files stay 120 minutes. A video dub is a different job and opens in the dub editor. More is on the text to audio translator page.

Frequently asked questions

Are German compound words spoken as one word?

They follow what you pasted or what the translation wrote. If a compound is split awkwardly, fix that line in the editor and re-speak only that line.

Where do I open german text to audio?

On this page, or from the Text to Audio tab on the mydubly home page. The same job appears under My files and opens in this text editor when the audio is ready. Edit the script and speak it again from here. A video dub uses the dub editor.
