Saruman voice generator: AI text to speech

Saruman from The Lord of the Rings 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, fan scenes and edits, without recording anything yourself.

The SuperClonica catalog has a fan-made voice in the manner of Saruman 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 Saruman 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 The Lord of the Rings.

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 Saruman

Start calm and let the weight come from the words; a pause before the key phrase sells the threat. 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 saruman.json --lang en --output saruman.mp3. The engine runs offline on an ordinary processor, with no character limit.

Fan fun, not deception

Use the voice for villain monologues, fan scenes and edits or personal projects within the SuperClonica terms. Do not present the audio as a real clip from The Lord of the Rings or as an actor’s words.
