Reference voice workflow
Read one short sentence aloud to record a voice sample, so translated speech stays closer to your own voice. Without a recording, VoxShift can use your live voice as the reference.
Reference Voice Translation
Translate speech without losing your voice identity.
Generic TTS can make translated speech feel detached from the speaker. VoxShift uses a reference voice workflow to output translated speech that is closer to your own voice, while clearly documenting limits and consent rules.

Consent-first usage
Using another person's voice without consent is prohibited. Use your own voice or properly authorized audio only.
Not perfect reproduction
The feature aims for voice similarity, not perfect cloning of tone, emotion, or pronunciation.
Fit Check
Where VoxShift fits, and where it does not.
Good fit
- You want translated speech output for Discord, game VC, or OBS streams
- You need more than subtitles and want your voice chat partners to hear translated speech
- You want to test GPU, VRAM, audio devices, and latency with the free version first
Use caution
- You need zero-latency simultaneous interpretation or perfect speaker separation
- You need high-stakes medical, legal, financial, or emergency translation
- You plan to use another person's voice without clear consent
- You want Live voice translation on an AMD Radeon, Intel GPU, or no-GPU PC (setup and diagnostics only)
Setup Flow
Check this flow before you buy.
Live voice translation requires an NVIDIA CUDA GPU (GTX 16 / RTX 20 series or newer) with 4 GB VRAM or more, and results also depend on your audio devices and routing. Test the free version (Steam Demo or Microsoft Store free trial) on your own PC before purchasing. It limits each Live session to 10 minutes, translates into English only, uses a fixed light model set, and allows up to 3 soundboard items.

FAQ
Common questions
Does it perfectly clone my voice?+
No. VoxShift aims for translated speech close to your reference voice, not perfect reproduction.
Can I use someone else's voice?+
No, not without consent. Unauthorized third-party voice use is prohibited.
Where is it useful?+
Discord, game voice chat, OBS streaming, and other workflows where speaker identity matters.
Do I have to record my voice?+
No. Recording is optional. Without it, VoxShift uses your live voice as the reference while you speak. A short recording of one sentence helps the translated voice sound more like you.
Start with the free version.
Voice translation is highly dependent on your PC. Before buying, check your PC, devices, and latency with the free version. Steam and Microsoft Store sell separate products, each a one-time purchase.
