For a server with character, you want more: a soundboard clip in a villain’s voice, a welcome line from a meme voice, a bot that answers in its own voice.\n\nSuperClonica has character, meme and announcer voices, a free online test and a free engine that makes clips on your computer and can run inside a bot. This guide shows how to make soundboard clips, how to give a bot a voice and how to keep it fun and fair.","sections":[{"heading":"Voices for a Discord server","points":["Free: Gollum, Valera the Gummy Bear, Trevor Philips, Dark Willow, Ciri and the Brainrot meme voice.","Announcers: the Super Smash Bros. 4/Ultimate announcer for “GG” and victory lines.","Game characters: Dota 2 heroes, GTA V characters, Geralt and more.","Calm voices for server rules and welcome messages."],"paragraphs":["Short clips work best on Discord: one line, two or three seconds, said with character."]},{"heading":"Make a clip free online","paragraphs":["On the page of any voice, type a line of 30 to 100 characters, choose the language and press Voice it. In a few seconds you can listen and download the clip, then add it to your server. No account is needed."]},{"heading":"Soundboard clips offline","points":["Download the voice file from its page (free voices download without paying) and install the engine once: python -m pip install superclonica-cpu.","Voice a clip with one command: superclonica --text \"GG! That was the precious win we needed!\" --voice gollum.json --lang en --output gg.ogg.","The extension sets the format: .ogg, .mp3 and .wav all work.","Check the soundboard’s current size and length limits and keep clips short."],"paragraphs":["Make a few takes with different --seed numbers and keep the funniest one."]},{"heading":"Give your bot a voice","paragraphs":["A bot can voice its replies with the same engine from Python: from superclonica import Superclonica; tts = Superclonica(); audio, rate = tts.synthesize(\"GG, everyone!\", voice=\"announcer.json\", lang=\"en\"); tts.save(\"gg.wav\", audio). Play the file in a voice channel with your bot library’s audio player; with discord.py that is a voice client and FFmpeg. Run synthesis outside the bot’s event loop, for example in a worker thread, so the bot stays responsive. The engine works offline on an ordinary processor, so the bot does not depend on a paid speech API."]},{"heading":"Keep it fun and fair","paragraphs":["Character voices are fan-made and not endorsed by the rights holders. Use them for jokes and fan fun on your server, never to impersonate a real person, never to harass anyone, and never to make a message look official. For a server mascot with its own voice, train a voice from a recording you have the rights to, or order one on the exchange."]}],"faq":[{"question":"Can Discord’s /tts use these voices?","answer":"No. Discord’s text to speech uses the system voices of each device. Use SuperClonica for clips and for bots that play audio."},{"question":"Is there a free voice for Discord clips?","answer":"Yes: Gollum, Valera the Gummy Bear, Trevor Philips, Dark Willow, Ciri and Brainrot are free."},{"question":"Which file format should I use?","answer":"The engine writes OGG, MP3 or WAV by the file extension; pick the one your soundboard or bot accepts."},{"question":"Do I need a graphics card?","answer":"No. Voicing text runs on an ordinary processor; only training a new voice needs an NVIDIA graphics card."}],"cta":{"catalog":"Browse voices","install":"Install the
