A tour of the Electron app: voice cloning, voice design, dubbing, and model management
Your voice. Your workflow.
| Create | Produce | Connect |
|---|---|---|
| Clone a voice or design your own | Dub videos with timed speech | Local API & MCP for agents |
| Dictate with a floating widget | Stories, audiobooks & batch jobs | Reusable recipes & watch folders |
Start with VoiceStudio (default, powered by k2-fsa/OmniVoice), or choose another engine. Features & engine catalog.
Local workflows run on your hardware. Remote services are optional; usage analytics requires consent.

Get started
One-command install (macOS / Linux)
# Latest Electron release
curl -fsSL https://voicestudio.sh/install | sh
# A specific published Electron release (replace X.Y.Z)
curl -fsSL https://voicestudio.sh/install | sh -s -- --version X.Y.Z
# Build current main and install the desktop app
curl -fsSL https://voicestudio.sh/install | sh -s -- --main
# Uninstall the app, keeping your data
curl -fsSL https://voicestudio.sh/install | sh -s -- --uninstall
On Windows, run irm https://voicestudio.sh/install | iex in PowerShell.
If voicestudio.sh/install is unreachable or returns 404, run the same script
straight from the repository, or clone it and run scripts/install.sh:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/debpalash/VoiceStudio/main/scripts/install.sh | sh
Release downloads require curl and a SHA-256 tool. --main requires Git,
Node.js 22+, Bun, Rust/Cargo, and platform build tools; see
installer prerequisites and behavior.
The installer preserves your settings, projects, and models. Older versions
must contain Electron packages; it never falls back to archived Tauri builds.
Or download from Releases (macOS .dmg, Windows .exe, Linux .AppImage or .deb) and follow your platform guide:
macOS · Windows · Linux · Docker
| Hardware | Support |
|---|---|
| NVIDIA GPU (Windows / Linux) | CUDA acceleration |
| Apple Silicon | Metal (MPS) acceleration |
| No dedicated GPU (Intel/AMD integrated graphics, older PCs) | Fully usable on the CPU, slower; setup installs the small CPU build of PyTorch (about 5 GB free disk) |
| Windows on ARM (Snapdragon X etc.) | Experimental, validation pending: native ARM64 app, x64 Python backend under emulation, CPU only |
| Intel Mac | App UI only; connect to a remote backend (why) |
Open Voice cloning, choose a voice or add a clean reference recording, enter your text, and generate. Install the required model when prompted. Hardware needs vary by engine; see performance.
Install with prompt
Paste into your coding agent (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, …):
Install the VoiceStudio Electron app on this device and verify it works, following
https://github.com/debpalash/VoiceStudio/blob/main/docs/install/agent.md
The agent guide covers hardware detection, reusing existing
data, asking before model downloads, and a test generation. Agents that support skills
can also run npx skills add debpalash/VoiceStudio.
Run the Electron preview from source
git clone https://github.com/debpalash/VoiceStudio.git
cd VoiceStudio
bun install
bun run setup:api # prepare Python dependencies before starting Electron
bun run dev
See Electron setup for prerequisites and backend configuration.
Use bun run smoke-test to build and launch an isolated packaged Electron app.
Add -- --install for the networked managed-runtime installation check.
Electron is the only desktop app and web UI. Version 0.5.3 was the final Tauri release. Existing Tauri users must install Electron separately. The retired Tauri shell and legacy UI entry points have been removed.

License & responsible use
AGPL-3.0 covers the application, including commercial use under its conditions. Model weights, tokenizers, voices and generated-output conditions are separate; a paid app licence does not grant those rights. Clone voices only with permission. Model Manager now shows versioned model-source notices, evidence links and unresolved review gaps from the shared inventory. Its optional reviewed-file preview does not enforce ordinary downloads or certify commercial permission. See license details.
