Here's a simple Python script to convert text to speech using the ElevenLabs API with the multilingual v2 model:

import requests

# Define constants for the script
XI_API_KEY = "<xi-api-key>"  # Your API key for authentication
VOICE_ID = "<voice-id>"  # ID of the voice model to use
TEXT_TO_SPEAK = "<text>"  # Text you want to convert to speech
OUTPUT_PATH = "output.mp3"  # Path to save the output audio file

# Construct the URL for the Text-to-Speech API request
tts_url = f"https://api.elevenlabs.io/v1/text-to-speech/{VOICE_ID}/stream"

# Set up headers for the API request, including the API key for authentication
headers = {
    "Accept": "application/json",
    "xi-api-key": XI_API_KEY
}

# Set up the data payload for the API request, including the text and voice settings
data = {
    "text": TEXT_TO_SPEAK,
    "model_id": "eleven_multilingual_v2",
    "voice_settings": {
        "stability": 0.5,
        "similarity_boost": 0.8,
        "style": 0.0,
        "use_speaker_boost": True
    }
}

# Make the POST request to the TTS API with headers and data, enabling streaming response
response = requests.post(tts_url, headers=headers, json=data, stream=True)

# Check if the request was successful
if response.ok:
    # Open the output file in write-binary mode
    with open(OUTPUT_PATH, "wb") as f:
        # Read the response in chunks and write to the file
        for chunk in response.iter_content(chunk_size=1024):
            f.write(chunk)
    # Inform the user of success
    print("Audio stream saved successfully.")
else:
    # Print the error message if the request was not successful
    print(response.text)

Make sure to replace <xi-api-key>, <voice-id>, and <text> with your actual API key, voice ID, and the text you want to convert to speech. Adjust the OUTPUT_PATH if you want to save the audio file to a different location.

To create a simple Python script using ElevenLabs' text-to-speech API, follow these steps:

Step 1: Obtain Your API Key

  1. Create an Account: Sign up or log in to your ElevenLabs account.
  2. Navigate to API Keys: In the lower left corner, click 'My Account', then select 'API Keys'.
  3. Generate a New Key: Click on Create Key. Remember to copy and store the key securely, as it will not be shown again.

Step 2: Install Required Libraries

Ensure you have the requests library installed. You can install it using pip:

pip install requests

Step 3: Create the Python Script

Here's a simple example script to convert text to speech using the API:

import requests

# Replace 'your_api_key_here' with your actual API key
api_key = 'your_api_key_here'
url = 'https://api.elevenlabs.io/v2/text-to-speech'

headers = {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    'xi-api-key': api_key
}

data = {
    'text': 'Hello, this is a test of the ElevenLabs text-to-speech API.',
    'voice': 'en_us_male'
}

response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, json=data)

if response.status_code == 200:
    with open('output.mp3', 'wb') as f:
        f.write(response.content)
    print("Audio file saved as output.mp3")
else:
    print(f"Error: {response.status_code} - {response.text}")

Step 4: Run the Script

Execute the script in your Python environment. If everything is set up correctly, it will generate an audio file named output.mp3 with the spoken text.

Make sure to replace 'your_api_key_here' with the actual API key you generated. If you encounter any issues, double-check that the API key is correctly used and stored securely.

client = ElevenLabs(api_key="sk_214f17a")

audio = client.generate(
text=MyTextTranslated,
voice="Brian",
model="eleven_multilingual_v2"
)

play(audio)

i saw someone using something as simple as this, why isnt it working for me?

To troubleshoot why the script isn't working, let's go through a few steps:

  1. API Key: Ensure you have a valid API key from ElevenLabs. You can obtain this by signing up on the ElevenLabs website and navigating to your account settings to generate an API key.

  2. Library Installation: Make sure you have the necessary Python library installed. If you're using a specific library for ElevenLabs, ensure it's correctly installed and imported in your script.

  3. Correct Imports: Ensure you have imported all necessary modules. For example, if you're using a library that provides the ElevenLabs class, make sure it's imported at the beginning of your script.

  4. Text Variable: Ensure that MyTextTranslated is defined in your script. It should be a string containing the text you want to convert to speech.

  5. Audio Playback: The play(audio) function needs to be defined or imported from a library that can handle audio playback. Ensure you have a method to play the audio once it's generated.

Here's a more detailed example with placeholders filled in:

from elevenlabs import ElevenLabs  # Example import, adjust based on actual library

# Initialize the client with your API key
client = ElevenLabs(api_key="your_api_key_here")

# Define the text you want to convert to speech
MyTextTranslated = "Hello, this is a test of the ElevenLabs text-to-speech service."

# Generate the audio
audio = client.generate(
  text=MyTextTranslated,
  voice="Brian",
  model="eleven_multilingual_v2"
)

# Function to play the audio (ensure you have a method to handle this)
def play(audio):
    # Code to play audio
    pass

# Play the generated audio
play(audio)

Make sure to replace "your_api_key_here" with your actual API key. If you continue to experience issues, double-check the library documentation for any additional setup or configuration steps.

To use the ElevenLabs API for text-to-speech, you need to ensure that you have the correct setup and imports. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you get started:

  1. Install the ElevenLabs SDK: First, make sure you have the ElevenLabs SDK installed. You can do this using pip:

    pip install elevenlabs

  2. Set Up Your API Key: You need an API key to authenticate your requests. To get your API key:

    • Log into your ElevenLabs account.
    • Go to your Profile in the bottom left corner.
    • Select "API Keys" and generate a new key.

  3. Store Your API Key Securely: It's a good practice to store your API key in an environment variable. You can use the python-dotenv package to manage this:

    pip install python-dotenv

    Create a .env file in your project directory and add your API key:

    ELEVENLABS_API_KEY=your_elevenlabs_api_key_here

  4. Correct Your Python Script: Ensure your script imports the correct module and uses the API key. Here's a corrected version of your script:

    from elevenlabs import ElevenLabsClient
import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv

# Load environment variables from .env file
load_dotenv()

# Retrieve API key from environment variable
api_key = os.getenv("ELEVENLABS_API_KEY")

# Initialize the client with your API key
client = ElevenLabsClient(api_key=api_key)

# Generate audio
audio = client.generate(
    text="Your text here",
    voice="Brian",
    model="eleven_multilingual_v2"
)

# Play the audio (you might need to use a library like pydub to play audio)
# Example using pydub
from pydub import AudioSegment
from pydub.playback import play

# Convert bytes to an AudioSegment
audio_segment = AudioSegment.from_file(io.BytesIO(audio), format="mp3")
play(audio_segment)

Make sure you replace "Your text here" with the actual text you want to convert to speech. Also, ensure you have the pydub library installed to handle audio playback:

pip install pydub

This setup should help you get your text-to-speech functionality working. If you encounter any further issues, please let me know!

how can i know which type of mode is it using, is it v2?
data = {
"text": text,
"voice_settings": {
"stability": 0.75,
"similarity_boost": 0.5
}
}

  • how can i add more parameters in settings?

To determine which model is being used, you need to check the specific API call or library function you're using. If you're using a library like elevenlabs, the model is typically specified in the function call, as in your example with model="eleven_multilingual_v2". If the model isn't specified, it might default to a particular one, so it's important to explicitly set it if you need a specific model.

To add more parameters to the voice_settings, you can simply include them in the dictionary. Here's an example of how you might add additional parameters:

data = {
    "text": text,
    "voice_settings": {
        "stability": 0.75,
        "similarity_boost": 0.5,
        "style_exaggeration": 0.3,  # Example additional parameter
        "clarity": 0.8  # Another example parameter
    }
}

Make sure to refer to the documentation of the library or API you're using to know which parameters are available and what values they accept. If you need further assistance, please provide more details about the specific library or API you're working with.
