ElevenLabs' AI sound effects tool is a hit among indie developers and creatives for generating unique audio quickly, praised for its convenience over traditional sound libraries. While great for prototyping and fun experiments, quality is inconsistent, with some effects feeling generic. Users request fine-tuning options, API access, and better support for creative, abstract prompts. It’s a promising tool, especially for indie projects, but needs refinement to meet professional standards. [ Reddit ]
ElevenLabs' Voice Design tool generates unique voices from text prompts, sparking excitement for uses in games, audiobooks, and creative projects. However, users note stiffness in tone, high costs, and limited nuance. While it’s seen as a disruptor for voice acting, adoption may be slowed by technical and societal hurdles. Promising but still developing. [ Reddit ]
This discussion focuses on frustration with ElevenLabs’ new voice verification requirement for instant cloning, which disrupts professional workflows, like creating placeholder audio for video editing. Many users argue the policy punishes legitimate use cases instead of targeting misuse, citing examples like preserving loved ones’ voices or accessibility for disabled users.
Competitors like F5-TTS, PlayHT, and OpenVoice are gaining attention, as ElevenLabs’ high costs, clunky UI, and restrictive policies push users away. Some speculate legal concerns or elections prompted the change, but many see it as overreach. The consensus: the policy feels impractical, driving users to explore better alternatives. [ Reddit ]
