Italian AI voice generator and voice cloning

• Reference recordings for this language are capped at 12 seconds, the same limit used throughout Mayantar.
• Geminates are real. Write the double consonant where the word has one — the model pronounces the length difference and will not correct a single-letter typo for you.
• Stress accents on final syllables (perché, città, più) should be typed. Italian only marks stress where it is irregular, and omitting the mark can shift the reading.
• Elision with apostrophes (dell'acqua, l'ora) is read as one prosodic unit; writing the words separately produces a small unnatural break.
• Cloning is cross-lingual: a voice cloned from a clip in one language can generate in another on this path. It works, but it is not free — accent from the reference language carries over. Record in the language you intend to publish in unless a foreign accent is the point.

Mayantar ships written prompts for English and the Indian languages; for Italian the recorder offers the English prompts as a starting point, and you are better off reading Italian of your own. Anything works as long as it is you talking normally — introduce yourself, describe what you are working on, read a paragraph of your own script.

Aim to fill most of the 12-second limit, keep it in one take, and include a question if you can: rising intonation is the thing a clone most often lacks when the reference was a flat, careful read.
