Palpatine voice generator: AI text to speech

Palpatine from Star Wars is one of the voices fans love to imitate. A text-to-speech voice lets you write new lines in that manner for villain monologues, edits and memes, without recording anything yourself.

The SuperClonica catalog has a fan-made voice in the manner of Palpatine for Supertonic 3. This guide shows what it sounds like, how to try it free online and how to voice whole scripts offline.

What the Palpatine voice sounds like

The voice is low, calm, with a weight that can turn into a threat. It was recorded in English, so it sounds most natural in English and keeps an English accent in other languages. It is a fan-made voice, not the voice of any actor, and it is not endorsed by the rights holders of Star Wars.

Try it free online

On the voice page, type a line of 30 to 100 characters and hear it in a few seconds, with no account. If it fits, the voice costs $2.99 once, and the file is yours to use offline as often as you like.

Write lines that sound like Palpatine

Write short, heavy sentences and use full stops for pauses; the voice works best with few words and no exclamation marks. Write your own lines rather than quoting films, episodes or games word for word.

Whole scripts offline

Install the free SuperClonica engine with python -m pip install superclonica-cpu, save the lines in a text file and voice them with one command: superclonica --text-file lines.txt --voice palpatine.json --lang en --output palpatine.mp3. The engine runs offline on an ordinary processor, with no character limit.

Fan fun, not deception

Use the voice for villain monologues, edits and memes or personal projects within the SuperClonica terms. Do not present the audio as a real clip from Star Wars or as an actor’s words.
