NicheBlasta empowers creators with exceptional video generation tools, and the Text-to-Speech feature plays a crucial role in bringing your content to life. However, some users might encounter challenges locating the section to input their ElevenLabs API key after the initial setup process. This article clarifies the solution and ensures you can leverage this valuable feature.
Understanding the Setup Process
During the initial setup, you likely encountered a screen for entering your ChatGPT API key, which is used for text generation. After proceeding, you might notice a change and be unable to find the Text-to-Speech options. Here's why:
- Separate Keys: The ElevenLabs API key (or any other Text-to-Speech provider) is distinct from the ChatGPT API key.
- OpenAI vs. Text-to-Speech: The OpenAI API handles text content creation, while Text-to-Speech providers like ElevenLabs convert that text into audio for your videos.
Resolving the Issue and Adding Your ElevenLabs API Key
Here's a simple guide to get you started:
Launch NicheBlasta: Open the NicheBlasta software and navigate to the "AI Settings" section.
Locate Text-to-Speech Options: Within the AI settings, you'll find a dedicated area for Text-to-Speech providers. This will typically list options like ElevenLabs, Play.HT, Microsoft Voices, and Voice Labs.
Choose Your Provider: We recommend ElevenLabs for its high-quality audio generation. Select your preferred platform from the list.
Obtain Your API Key: Click the "Get API Key" button next to your chosen provider. This will open the platform's website in a new tab, guiding you through the process of acquiring your API key.
Copy and Paste the API Key: Once you have your API key, copy it from the provider's website. Return to NicheBlasta and paste the copied key into the designated field within the Text-to-Speech settings.
Additional Notes:
- If you've already entered your OpenAI API key, it will be displayed in a separate section within the AI settings, distinct from the Text-to-Speech options.
- If you don't have a saved API key from a previous session, you'll need to generate a new one by following the instructions on the chosen platform's website.
