Hey everyone, right now I am looking for a way to finetune my character. One thing I realy want to see is a higher quality of different voice tones. The synth voice of a char could be trained on differen voice “colors” such as shouting, normal, whispering … so I would end up in different synth voice models / versions. But this would only work if I could switch the synth voice of a char at runtime. We are using unity engine - is there a known way to do such thing? Best regards, Markus ---

Hello @info_AM, **Welcome to the Convai Developer Forum!** Currently, this functionality is not supported. However, I will add it to our **feature request list** for future consideration. Thank you for your feedback! ---

Thanks for your fast response. I found this: [[Dynamically Change Voices - Unreal Engine / Questions - Convai Developer Forum]](https://forum.convai.com/t/dynamically-change-voices/944) Is this still working, or is there a similar thing for Unity? ---

That post refers to **changing a character’s voice to a different one** from the **500+ available voice options**. You can switch your character’s voice to any of these predefined options. However, your question is about **changing the tone of the same voice at runtime** , which is not currently possible. ---

So if I have a custom voice with e.g. three different variantions (which then end up being three different custom voices), I could switch from one to the other? Is there a documentation for how to do this with unity? thanks in advance! ---

so the other solution (changine tone of same voice at runtime) is the one which elevenlabs also want to push (at least from what I see on their release news and roadmap) ---

Yes, you can switch between different custom voices, but this requires **Core API Usage** , and you need to be on the appropriate plan. You can find more details here: [Character API - Core API Reference](https://docs.convai.com/api-docs/reference/core-api-reference/character-api) ---

Unfortunately, this is **not currently possible** on our side. ---
