How can users take advantage of different audio voices in Azure AI Speech?

Users can take advantage of different audio voices in Azure AI Speech by selecting from available voices and customizing options. Azure's Speech service offers a variety of pre-built voices across different languages and accents, allowing users to choose a voice that best fits their needs. Additionally, Azure provides customization options that enable users to adjust attributes such as pitch, speed, and pronunciation, further tailoring the voice output to achieve the desired tone and style. This flexibility is important for creating engaging and contextually appropriate speech synthesis for applications such as virtual assistants, reading applications, and more.

The ability to customize voices contrasts with other options that limit user interaction or voice diversity, such as relying on support requests or selecting a single global voice, which would not cater to the varied preferences and needs of different applications and audiences. Developing custom voice models can also be complex and may not be necessary for all users who simply want to utilize the existing variety and capabilities offered by the service.
