# Generate Voice

### Summary

The Voice Node converts text into natural-sounding speech using AI text-to-speech models. Write or connect a prompt, select a voice, and the node generates an audio output that sounds like a real person speaking. Use it for voiceovers, narration, dialogue, or any workflow that needs spoken audio from text.

### How to Use

1. Add the Node:
   * Click the Add (+) button and select Voice from the Audio node category.
2. Write Your Text:
   * Type what you want spoken into the prompt field, or connect a Prompt or AI Copilot node.
3. Select a Voice:
   * Choose a voice from the Voice dropdown (e.g., Roger). Each voice has a distinct tone, pitch, and character.
4. Run:
   * Click Run, and the AI generates an audio file of the selected voice speaking your text.
