## Steps
1. Paste your Spanish text — Up to 10,000 characters per clip; accents (á, é, ñ) and ¿¡ punctuation help the voice.
2. Pick a Spanish voice — Filter the library by Spanish to see the 58 native voices, or choose an ElevenLabs voice and write in Spanish.
3. Set the delivery — Emotion, speed and pitch on MiniMax; stability and tags on ElevenLabs.
4. Generate and download — MP3, WAV or FLAC, no watermark.

## In depth

### Spanish is many accents
Spanish is spoken with clearly different accents in Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, the Andes and the Río de la Plata region — differences in the pronunciation of c/z, s and ll/y, and in rhythm [1]. For a local audience, choose a voice whose accent fits, and write in the vocabulary your audience uses.

### Native voices vs multilingual voices
Two ways to get Spanish audio:
- Native Spanish voices (MiniMax) — built on Spanish speech; the most natural rhythm.
- Multilingual voices (ElevenLabs, Qwen3) — one voice across languages; great for bilingual channels.
- Your own voice — an instant clone can speak Spanish from an English sample.

### Writing Spanish for the ear
Spanish sentences run long in writing. For audio, split them at natural breath points, keep accents and inverted punctuation, and read the script aloud once — the voice follows the rhythm the punctuation gives it.
