Nodaro DocsVoice Character
Describe who a designed voice is: age, gender, up to 3 languages, one of 45 accents and a timbre. Nodaro adds it to the voice description of Voice Design.
The Voice Character picker describes who a voice is: the speaker's age, gender, language, accent and timbre. You combine options such as Middle-aged, Male, English, British RP and Warm, and Nodaro adds the description to the voice description of the Voice Design node you connect it to. The picker never calls a model, so it costs no credits.
When to use it
- Design a new voice for a character, a narrator or a brand without writing a voice description by hand.
- Make a multilingual voice: pick up to 3 languages, such as English and Spanish.
- Give a voice a specific accent, from General American and British RP to Scouse, Nigerian or Transatlantic.
- Try variations fast: change one part, such as the timbre, and run Voice Design again.
How to use it
Add the picker
Open the node picker on the Audio tab and choose Creative Controls › Music & Voice › Voice Character.
Describe the speaker
Click the node and choose an Age, a Gender, up to 3 Language choices, an Accent and a Timbre. Every part is optional.
Connect it
Drag from the picker's output to the Audio style input of a Voice Design node.
Run Voice Design
The description is added to the node's voice description when it runs. Voice Design returns a preview of the new voice and a reusable voice ID.
Settings
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Age | One age, from Infant and Child to Middle-aged, Mature and Elderly. |
| Gender | Male, Female or Androgynous. |
| Language | Up to 3 of 33 languages, for a multilingual or code-switching voice. Language is what the voice speaks. |
| Accent | One of 45 accents, across North America, the British Isles, Europe, Latin America, Asia, the Middle East and Africa. Accent is how the voice sounds. |
| Timbre | One quality of the voice, such as Warm, Gravelly, Breathy, Velvety, Husky or Authoritative. |
| Custom text (before) | Your own words, added before the description, for example slightly hoarse from a long night. |
| Custom text (after) | Your own words, added after the description. |
| Prompt hint | Full (default) adds the longer description. Compact adds only the short terms. See Full or Compact. |
A new node starts empty and adds nothing until you pick. The parts are built into one phrase in a fixed order: the languages, the age and gender, then the timbre and the accent. Parts you leave empty are skipped.
To see the exact words the picker will add, switch the node to the Prompt or Both display mode. The settings panel shows the same text under Will inject into prompt.
Where the description goes
On Voice Design, the description is added to the voice description. The preview text that the voice speaks is never changed. Text to Audio makes sound effects, so it ignores voice pickers and shows a warning. For music, use Music Genre, Music Mood and Instrumentation.
You can also connect the picker to a Text or Combine Text node to use the words in a longer text.
Every age, gender, language, accent and timbre
Filter by part or search by name. The words under each name are the term the picker adds in Compact mode.

Tips
- Pair it with Voice Delivery. Voice Character says who is speaking. Voice Delivery says how they speak: the pace, the emotion and the style.
- Keep language and accent apart. For an English voice with a French accent, pick English as the language and French as the accent.
- Design once. Voice Design gives each new voice an ID you can reuse, so you do not have to design the same voice again.
