I have a voice that I want to copy. The problem is that the voice has a strong russian accent. How can I move forward here? I tried to use an audio from her in which she speaks russian but that did not really help. How can I move forward here?

@hollow solar so do you want to retain the strong russian accent or not? if you do then there's no issues at all - go ahead and clone it, and IVC might be able to pick it up and imitate it well

hey yes i wanna keep it
but when i do the english voice of her (with accent) then it doesnt work and the accent isnt there. when i use the russian voice then the accent is there but it still doesnt really sound like her
whats the best way to approach this?
I use btw Turbo V2

Unfortunately that's currently the biggest limitation with Instant Voice Cloning. if you are trying to clone a very unique voice with a very unique accent where the AI might not have heard a similar voices before during training. In such cases, creating a custom model with explicit training using Professional Voice Cloning (PVC) might be the best option.
however if it is not your own voice i.e. you have no way of doing the verification step that PVC requires then that won't be possible

Turbo V2 is an english-only model

Unfortunately not.
For PVC, you either need to be the person whose voice you are cloning or have them do the verification through your account
