      Hey mike. Can you look into TTS .. TEXT TO SPEECH software. There are a bunch of upcoming voice cloning, synthesizers that people can use in a podcast or game as characters. One is Replica and it’s a plugin for unreal engine. Others are resemble.ai, speechelo I’m currently using to try and make podcast. But I think it’s an important topic to cover because it deals with voices for characters in games, and unless you have a lot of money to pay voice actors .. there is no other way.

    I could use something like this for my projects but I agree, not at that price (monthly or yearly). I get that the technology behind this product does a great job and I can benefit from it but I'll sit this one out. I'll check back in a few months to see if pricing has changed.
    Thanks for.making this informative video!

    Just saw this video. Yes, the price is high, but there is a coupon code out there to drop it to $200 from $300. Also, the updated version now integrates with Camtasia so that if you want to edit an audio track in the Camtasia timeline by "sending to" Audiate, it will take your edits and automatically place them back in the Camtasia timeline and automatically cut/edit the rest of the timeline to match the cuts/edits on the audio track. That's a very handy feature. So now, that $200 spent has a little more value.

    I work at a company where oftentimes an engineer will have to make a 15 minute training video on a topic that they didn't really rehearse for and I could see this being useful for that kind of environment. For my audio work at home I have Audition and Reaper so I'm covered.

      I don't know about the filters, but the transcription and matching to waveform features could be done without much difficulty by using a cloud transcription service that has start and stop timestamps for words and phrases (which most of them do).

    Useful maybe for long podcast cleaning and someother uses but...
    If it's an important work-related audio you usually do several takes, and then intonation and delivery is far more important than pauses or hesitations.
    If it's not that important... then you don't care about pauses and blank spaces.
    Far too expensive, in any case.

    I have been talking to TechSmith and told them about a software called clipchamp because they have tts is text to speech and I have been asking tech smith when are they are going to add text to speech to Camtasia like clipchamp and instead of adding it to Camtasia they put this out. shame on them unless they are going to add tts to audit later. tech smith need to get it done if not it is not worth the price. it need to do both speech to text and text to speech.

    If "you" are doing audio recording for a business pursuit, maybe worth it. Emphasis on maybe. There are too many tools that are free (for audio recording in general) that are really good that make it a hard pill to swallow, particularly if one has taken the time to write scripts to automate things that may already be automated in programs like this, so they are on more equal footing in that regard. Of course, for me, the other downside is that there is no Linux version. To be honest, if we are getting on this subscription bandwagon with WASM and other ways of being able to do compiled backend code, just have it browser based, then it doesn't matter the OS. In for a penny, in for a lb. Make no mistake, I'm no fan of subscription based software at all, but if we are doing this always connected software stuff, may as well go all out and have it browser based as well.

    To be fair to Techsmith, this product is aimed at the corporate market like several of their other products like Knowmia, Coach's Eye and Video Review but I agree that I was surprised that it was more than the yearly cost of Camtasia. If it sells well at that price than more power to them and if it doesn't than I expect they will lower the price.

    I'm not sure "overpriced": "too expensive", yes; "overpriced", no. It's clearly using fairly compute-intensive server-based AI, and they've had to balance out average use, because no-one really likes credit-based setups.
    That said, though, these are the guys who make Camtasia, and I would say that that's overpriced, personally.

      Speed and time are valuable commodities. What would take you five minutes with a tool like this could take you 20-30 or more in Audacity. If you're recording a lot of audio, that adds up quickly.
