Step 2: Choose your voice and pace
MagicPodcast uses premium neural voices to make your text sound like a host you would subscribe to. Pick a tone that matches your content—calm for bedtime reviews, energetic for strategy memos, or balanced for academic material. Adjust the playback speed to skim or study in detail.
