Here’s how the three voice parameters work in Dubbing Studio (and across ElevenLabs voice settings):

Stability (stability, 0–1)
- Controls randomness vs. consistency between generations: lower values allow broader emotional variance; higher values sound more consistent/monotone. (elevenlabs.io)
- The system is non‑deterministic; sliders act as ranges rather than exact outcomes. A common starting point is stability ≈ 50. (elevenlabs.io)
Similarity (similarity_boost, 0–1)
- Determines how closely the AI adheres to the original voice. Higher values increase likeness to the source voice. (elevenlabs.io)
- If the source audio is poor and similarity is set too high, artifacts/background noise may be reproduced. A common starting point is similarity ≈ 75. (elevenlabs.io)
Style (style; “style exaggeration”)
- Amplifies the original speaker’s style. Increases compute/latency and can make the model slightly less stable. Recommended to keep at 0 unless you specifically need stronger style. (elevenlabs.io)

Notes specific to Dubbing Studio

You can set these parameters at the track level (applies to all clips for a speaker) or override them per‑clip. (elevenlabs.io)

API naming/behavior reference

Parameters map exactly as: stability, similarity_boost, style (plus optional use_speaker_boost and speed). Range/behavior are defined in the API. (elevenlabs.io)

Similarity: By "source" voice, do you mean the audio file in the project?
Style: By "original speaker", do you mean the trained voice?

Short answer:

Similarity: Yes—when you use Clip clone or Track clone in Dubbing Studio, “source” refers to the speaker in your project’s source audio (the uploaded media). The Similarity slider then controls how closely the generation follows that original voice. If you pick a library/custom voice instead of cloning, Similarity is relative to that selected voice, not the file. (elevenlabs.io)
Style: “Original speaker” means the voice the model is replicating. For cloned voices, that’s the person in the reference/source audio; for a saved/custom/library voice, it’s that voice profile. The Style slider amplifies that speaker’s style. (elevenlabs.io)

References:

Dubbing studio: et's say I have an IVC voice trained on a speaker's "neutral" tone.
However, the audio I'm trying to replicate has them speaking angrily.
What slider settings for stability, similarity, and style would you suggest?

Short answer based on ElevenLabs docs:

Stability: Lower it to increase emotional range. For “angry” delivery, start below the typical ~0.5 baseline and iterate; lower stability yields more expressive, less consistent takes, while too low can sound odd or rushed. (elevenlabs.io)
Similarity: Keep it relatively high if you must preserve the speaker’s identity; reduce slightly only if you need more deviation from the neutral training to reach the target performance. Similarity controls adherence to the original voice, not the emotion itself. (elevenlabs.io)
Style: Keep style exaggeration at 0 by default; only nudge up slightly if needed. It amplifies the speaker’s style but can reduce stability and increase latency. The docs generally recommend keeping it at 0. (elevenlabs.io)

Practical starting point (then adjust per clip):

Stability: below 0.5 (generate a few times and select the best take).
Similarity: around or slightly below the common ~0.75 baseline if you need more deviation; raise it back up if timbre drifts.
Style: 0 (only increase if absolutely necessary, watch for instability). (elevenlabs.io)

Dubbing Studio tips:

Apply settings per clip (for specific angry lines) rather than globally, and consider Clip clone on those clips to capture more of the source performance nuances. Results are non‑deterministic, so multiple regenerations are expected. (elevenlabs.io)

Parameter references:

Definitions and defaults for stability, similarity_boost, and style are in the API docs. (elevenlabs.io)

If you’d like, share a short sample and which parts must stay closest to the original identity vs. the anger performance, and I can suggest finer adjustments per line.

Are you sure I should set style to "0"? It's 100% by default
