Adjust the pronunciation of AI-generated voiceover

Hint: spell the word phonetically, then correct the captions

Updated this week

Sometimes AI-generated voices don’t pronounce names or terms the way you expect. This quick guide (and video) shows how to adjust your script with simple phonetic spellings, regenerate the audio, and update the transcript so everything is pronounced and spelled correctly throughout your video.

Steps to Adjust Pronunciation

  1. In the editor, open your scene and click the More actions (⋮) menu.

  2. Select Edit Script.

  3. Update the word(s) to a phonetic spelling that matches how you want it pronounced.

  4. Click Save.

  5. Select Save & Regenerate Audio (note: regenerating audio has an associated credit cost).

💡 Pro Tip: Make all of your script edits before regenerating. Each time you regenerate, the system reprocesses the entire audio track, so batching edits helps reduce credit use.

Update the Transcription

Once the audio sounds correct:

  1. Select the word on the worldline timeline.

  2. Choose Edit Spelling.

  3. Enter the proper spelling so your transcription is accurate.
