How to Make a Spoken Ringtone with Text to Speech (Pro)

TL;DR

Add a track, choose Text to Speech, type your phrase and pick a voice. Voices are the system voices installed on your iPhone, so languages vary. Preview, add to the timeline, trim and export. This is a Pro feature.

The problem

You want a ringtone that says “Time to get up” or “Mum is calling” but you don’t want to record it, or you’re not happy with your own voice.

Steps (Pro)

  1. In the editor tap Add track → Text to Speech.
  2. Type the text. Short, clear phrases work best.
  3. Pick a Voice; each shows its name and language.
  4. Preview it, adjust, and add it to the timeline.
  5. Trim, add a fade, layer with music if you like, and export.

Tips

  • Add punctuation to control pauses: “Wake up. It’s seven.”
  • Repeat the phrase two or three times so the ringtone lasts long enough to hear.
  • Download higher-quality voices in iOS Settings for a more natural sound.
  • If a voice mispronounces a name, spell it phonetically.
