Reproduce the problem briefly
Use a short test instead of regenerating the whole document. A useful test case here is: A language lesson with an English introduction and a Spanish paragraph. Keep a copy of the original so every edit is reversible. Note what you expected to hear and what you actually heard.
The starting pointThe best voice choice starts with the language of the text, not the name of a speaker.
Check the source first
- 01
Inspect the input
Identify the main language of the passage. Compare the affected passage against the original document.
- 02
Change one thing
Choose a matching installed device voice for non-English text. Keep the rest of your settings unchanged so this is a fair test.
- 03
Listen again
Split passages by language if a single voice struggles. Use the same sentence to decide whether the change improved the result.
Separate the symptoms
The bundled Kokoro voices in VoxNote are for English. A matching device voice is the right route for other scripts.
| Checkpoint | What to look for | Next action |
|---|---|---|
| Words or order are wrong | Compare the extracted text with the original | Edit the text before changing voices |
| Words are clear, delivery feels wrong | Preview another speaker at the same speed | Choose voice and speed separately |
| The sample works, the full note does not | Check document length and device storage | Split at a meaningful section boundary |
Retest before replacing a recording
When the short test works, apply only the successful change to the longer note. If it still fails, write down the file type, the selected voice, and the exact step where the problem occurs. Those details make a support request more useful.
A language lesson with an English introduction and a Spanish paragraph. Keep that example as a quick reference for your next session, and revisit the original whenever exact detail matters.
