What a news voice needs
News is heard once and has to be understood the first time. The voices in this collection read at an even pace with clear articulation and little drama, which suits news formats, internal updates, audio versions of articles and announcements. The voices: Dominik, Luca, Felix, Christoph, Samuel, Leon and Sebastian.
4 of them come from Austria and 2 from Switzerland. That matters when your listeners do: a regional news item sounds more credible in a voice from the region.
From article to audio
Many publishers offer an audio version of their articles. Paste the text, check names, abbreviations and numbers, and export an MP3 for your player or podcast feed. On every paid plan the REST API can voice new articles automatically; the free plan has no API access.
Names are the test
Listeners judge a news voice by how it reads names of people and places. Mark the stress in the editor where a name sounds wrong; foreign names often come out best when you write them the way they are pronounced in German.
