Clone yourself with Azure Custom Neural Voice
summary
Shows how to use Azure Custom Neural Voice to build a usable voice clone: the free 20–50 utterances “light” flow records in-browser (about 15 minutes) and yields passable results from laptop mics, while the gated Pro route needs 300–2,000 utterances, pro WAVs or long audio, a talent statement and can take ~24 hours to train. Microsoft reports a ~4.1 MOS / ~82% match; demos work best from clean call or studio audio, cost about $52 per training hour plus a deployed endpoint at ~$4/hour, and requires talent consent.
