“He’s been planning his revenge. An enormous stockpile of Imperial Star Destroyers, his contingency plan. He calls it the Final Order. Together, this fleet has unstoppable power. The Sith Eternal, his cult of followers, have been hiding in the Unknown Regions. On a world called Exegol.”

A little more lore thrown in 😉

Alright, here are the Kylo lines:

Like I said before, Rey’s line after he speaks should be reinstated.

As for the “You were right”, “What Palpatine doesn’t know is we’ve become a dyad in the Force, Rey”, and “Captain Hux” lines, did those sound close to you, Hal?

I might not be able to generate Poe lines until this weekend because I have to manually string together all of his audio lines from the Lego TFA files into one large file.

Since this was cut from Poe after the civilian fleet arrives on Exegol:
“Target those underbelly cannons, every one we knock out is a world saved!”

Maybe we can add some comms effect to the voice and have Poe say something like this that helps lead the other fighters’ chant:
“Let’s make their sacrifice worth it, give 'em everything we’ve got, for Skywalker!”

or just do:
“Lando, you crazy son-of-a-bitch!” 😄

This AI voicework is going to help with a ton of stuff!

EDIT: Changed “Let’s make his…” to “Let’s make their…” to include Leia and Han, suggestively. The OT crew.

With any luck I will be able to plug in these clips tonight and see how they play in full context. I wonder if a variations of just the words “we’ve become” could be produced, to give options, as I imagine that potentially being improved, but not the entire line. Maybe include it in a few contexts, such as starting and ending a sentence with it.

I like “Captain Hux” as we already have it, but I will try it with that clip also just to be sure.

I can try variations of “we’ve become”, the trouble is finding a variation of it that matches the surrounding dialogue on both sides (which could take countless tries). What about just: “we’ve become a dyad in the Force”? That way I know how he is speaking leading up to the line.

Just a suggestion, but how would anyone here feel about using Eleven Labs to redo Ewan McGregor’s lines with Alec Guinness’ voice, Hayden Christensen’s with Sebastian Shaw’s and Ashley Eckstein with Rosario Dawson’s?

I’ve heard people trying to replicate Alec Guinness on YouTube. It never sounds 100% right.

I think the problem with a lot of people’s clones is that they use audio with background noise or poor mic quality. Either that, or they don’t use enough samples. Unfortunately, older actors have voices that fall under all three of these categories.

The best replications by far use ebook readings, podcast samples, or video game voice lines ripped from the game files.

Yeah, probably same problem with trying to (deep)fake Shaw onto the ghost scene; there’s just not enough to work with.

But yeah, alts for the “we’ve become” line would be welcome. Hoping to get to my computer tonight to be able to play with these. But if not, I will when I can, and see what needs to be adjusted to massage them into place.

Here are 3 more “become” line options. I shortened it to just “we’ve become a dyad in the Force”, so you could sandwich it between What “Palpatine doesn’t know is…” and “Rey”. Or you can simply edit out the “dyad in the Force” part with Audacity.

Option 1 (kinda crap): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1T4dov0e3mAEU-FqizUDpGZHA2EEeHwap/view?usp=sharing
Option 2 (decent): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ossG8GEGG-oIlOkxcuHQj9Lm4Lxn7BK5/view?usp=sharing
Option 3 (This is my preference because you can hear Adam’s voice very clearly under the mask): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1K7mkjHw2Avt7GpQX6RxFe8I_HjVFGrR4/view?usp=sharing

It’s insane how well option 3 works! Just think of the possibilities with ElevenAI!

Bad news everyone: a lot of the Poe lines have a comm filter placed over them, and he’s using a shouty voice in like 90% of them, too. I used only the ones that didn’t have the filter, and the results are pretty subar. Definitely not passable for a monologue. If anybody knows where I can get more content of Oscar Isaac, please let me know. It would need to have no background noise or other people speaking.

Check out the Lego game based on The Force Awakens. Also, I think he did work on Battlefront II.

I’ve sourced all of my previous work from the Lego game already (minus Leia, that was 2 and a half hours of Carrie reading her book). I’ll drop in the 5 minutes from battlefront now.

That did the trick! Unfortunately, this will only work for comms, as there is an urgency in his voice no matter what I input.

EDIT (example): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1U5sXLrUzS5MvXAbw5k0OASLv0OFZKOsE/view?usp=sharing

I personally don’t think it’s still 100% there.

Is that even Oscar Isaac? It doesn’t sound like him.

Ah, it’s because he doesn’t even voice his character in Battlefront!

Eh, using all of those made little improvement. I’m not sure what it is. Probably the fact that he isn’t using a conversational voice in hardly any of his lines.

The TFA lines + Disney Infinity lines is about 10 minutes of content. Here is what the program says about this: “Sample quality is more important than quantity. Noisy samples may give bad results. Providing more than 5 minutes of audio in total brings little improvement.”

Here’s audio for the dyad line:

And here’s an extended clip of Rey and Kylo, featuring both “you were right” and “they paid for your protection… in more than one way”:

I would need to (figure out the best way to) add reverb to make them blend in better, but this should tell us whether they’ll work.

I am surprised by how well they seem to blend in already!

That first one is flawless. The second one is absolutely fine, but I can’t quite put my finger on why, to me, it doesn’t quite fit the tone of the scene? Almost like Kylo needs to go a bit more introspective/punctuating with ‘in more than one way’?

Both sound nearly flawless to me.

I actually think it’s “they paid for your protection” that sounds a little off. Mostly because the second line sounds like Adam so much. The line delivery I was going for was more of something that he is saying aloud to himself after realizing the irony of what he just said.

EDIT: After listening a few more times, both sound fine. Not sure if I’m just convincing myself of that or what lol.
