quick note that that voice selection matters a lot with our new v3 model, especially voice language!

We have a curated list of v3 voices in the library, but feel free to try others to find what works. Make sure language <> voice language match.

Unfortunately many of the foreign language generation sounds unnatural, with a strong American accent. I've tried the Spanish, Galician, Tagalog, German. I did try the curated samples.

Can you choose a voice that's native in that language in the voice library: https://elevenlabs.io/app/voice-library?language=es
