Audio imaging company Benztown has launched a new audio production tool to simulate listener audio for on-air use. Benztown says AI Listener Voice Generator is the first of its kind in the broadcast radio industry and enables subscribers to its Imaging Libraries to generate input from “listeners.” The company says the new technology effectively addresses the challenges that stations increasingly face in collecting listener audio from the public.
The AI Listener Voice Generator offers text-to-speech capabilities, including speech-to-speech technology that accurately captures subtle variations in intonation. Users can access multiple voice types and easily adjust parameters such as speed and tone to customize the generated audio that best meets their specific needs.
CEO of Benztown Andreas Sannemann said, “We are excited to provide our library users with the most compelling listener material possible, the listener audio they need for every specific piece of production. Benztown’s AI Listener Voice Generator is another giant step forward in creating great-sounding radio with next-generation technology through AI-generated listeners on demand. The text-to-speech and speech-to-speech capabilities of this new feature make an audio producer’s job easier and more efficient than ever, and it sounds incredible.”
