Malay AI voice generator and voice cloning

• Reference recordings for this language are capped at 12 seconds, the same limit used throughout Mayantar.
• Write Rumi (Latin) script. Jawi is not currently supported as an input script.
• There is no special preprocessing for Malay, and it needs none — the orthography is regular enough that ordinary written Malay generates directly.
• English loanwords, which are common in Malaysian usage, are read as written; they are not transliterated first.
• 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 Malay the recorder offers the English prompts as a starting point, and you are better off reading Malay 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.

The checks your clip has to pass — and the specific reasons clips get rejected — are in our guide to recording a reference clip.
