Having the perfect voice effect on your new video can really boost followers, especially if you know how to do the audio editing correctly. That’s why we want to teach any and everybody how to add voiceover to TikTok, to make you successful influencers or entertainers.

In this next part of our step by step guide, we’re going to give you exact directions on how to take an original video to the next level. Once you have the videos recorded, do this next:

2. At this point, your TikTok videos will start playing back. Begin recording TikTok voiceovers by tapping and holding the red record button.
3. Once you’ve said all you have to say, stop recording.

Note: You can also create a TikTok voice over by using the text-to-speech feature, but we’ll talk more about that later on.

How To Add Voice Effects

A voice effect is different from a TikTok voiceover. Instead of having to add voice to a video, you’re simply changing the original audio to sound like something else. Voice effects options available include “Giant,” “Megaphone,” and “Robot.”

Typically, this type of audio editing takes out your own voices and adds others in for a quick laugh or change in narration. Editing original sounds like this can totally be experimentally fun.

How do you add voice effects to your  videos? Follow these steps:

1. To get to the voice effects menu option in the TikTok app, click the middle button at the bottom of your screen, it’ll look like a ‘+’ symbol.
2. Select the time, in seconds, you’d like your video length to be. Hit the red record button and begin speaking. Press the same red record button to stop recording altogether.
3. The video has been created. Now, to add a voice effect, you’ll tap the red check mark in the bottom right hand corner to go to the next screen.
4. Here, your videos will play back for you. A list of icons will appear on the right-hand side of your screen. Find the tiny microphone with a sparkle that will either be labeled “Voice” or “Audio Editing.” Click on it.
5. A variety of labeled colorful characters will appear. Press them to listen to their respective voice effects before choosing the one best for your TikTok video.

Note: Only sound can be changed in this area of the app.

How Do You Get The AI Voice On TikTok?

AI TikTok voiceovers are super easy to learn, especially with our step by step guide. But at this point in the article, we’re going to add in Kapwing (a great content producing app to help boost creations). All you have to do is follow the text-to-speech tool instructions and your TikTok voice over will automatically be artificially intelligent.

Begin by opening the text-to-speech tool and clicking on the dropdown menu. First, you’ll want to choose the language that the voiceover on TikTok will be in. Note: There are 20+ choices to choose from. Then, you’ll want to add voiceover. You can quickly preview what the voice will sound like by hitting the ‘play’ button by each option.

To access the AI voiceover on TikTok option, you can AI-generate by cloning your own voice. This is the perfect solution to an original voice. If you say some of the same phrases over and over again, it’s easier to use the AI sound than to re-record and add voiceover several times. Just press the “Add new voice” button in the left corner of the dropdown menu and create your unique voice clone. Follow the prompts from there.
