Chris.wsQ: Background audio and voice cloning
Hi, this platform looks like exactly what I'm looking for if these 2 questions come with pleasing answers:
1. I read that Pixabay videos can be used. Can their free audio clips be used as well? This would be in addition to any voice narration. For example: Start with my own voice recording that SMS transcribes. Add background video from Pixabay. Can background music be added as well? Or would I have to merge the voice and music before uploading it to SMS? The intention is to use your platform for guided meditations.
2. Your comments in the Q&A say that the cloned voice option is not offered in this deal due to the ongoing costs. That's totally fine. We want your company to thrive. I haven't looked closely enough at Eleven Labs to see if it's offered, but would it be possible for us to integrate our own subscriptions with EL?

Thank you for the question!
1. Unfortunately we don't offer Pixabay direct integration for music (they don't provide an api service that allows us to do this), but you can upload background audio to add to your videos, and you can even "mix" the volume between the background audio and your spoken audio - I've shown how this works near the end of this video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZ_-cNkPA9Y
2. We don't currently support this, but I think it's an intriguing feature to be able to provide your own API key for Elevenlabs. I've amended the roadmap item for Voice Cloning so it includes this feature: https://soundmadeseen.com/roadmap
Any work on this would probably happen after the AppSumo deal has concluded.
Hope this helps,
Rane
