How would I convert a female to male voice?

Report · Jul 08, 2023

I was looking for a way to convert a female voice to a male voice. Most tutorials or voice changers I've found just lower the pitch, but that does not at all help. Is there a way to edit the way things are pronounced (not entirely sure the technical terms, but the way they speak) to make the voice more masculine?

This is literally the only feature I wanted out of this app but unfortunately it seems it isn't possible, but if anyone can help (or reccomend an app that does) please do.

I'm afraid it's not possible because - well, it's not really possible! I will at least attempt to explain why:

The way the male and female voices are developed in adult humans is essentially different. It can be summed up by observing that male voices are far more like female ones before the male voice 'breaks', around the age of puberty. Essentially the main difference is that the male vocal cords thicken, and the range of harmonics produced by them when either singing or speaking alters quite a lot - which is why pitch shifting doesn't really work, because the harmonic balance isn't altered when you do that. Unfortunately for you, this harmonic balance is a dynamic thing which alters with articulation, and that means that you can't use fixed EQ to alter it either. Also, the human ear is really sensitive to these differences, which is the other reason that you generally can't get away with it - people are not easily fooled.
