Narrator
Read it, record it, score it. All on one Mac.
Our in-house audio studio. Drop in any document and it reads it aloud, or write a script and it records a multi-voice audiobook or podcast. It also writes songs, coaches karaoke, plays MIDI through an orchestra and makes faces talk, all running locally at no cost per use.

Music Studio: pick a take, learn it, record it, tune and save.
Why It Exists
Voice and music services charge by the minute and keep your files. Narrator runs entirely on our own hardware, so the studio voiced Santa Cheer’s songs and our narrations for nothing.
