Experienced Users: If you already have your eBook ready and simply want to convert it into an audiobook, this article will focus on how to use Designer specifically for this purpose.

Getting Started with Designer

Designer offers a feature that streamlines the audiobook creation process. It allows you to import content from various formats including PDFs, Google Docs, and Word documents. Here’s how to get started:

Log Into Designer: Access your Designer dashboard and look for the "Create Audiobook" button.
Import Your Content: Choose from several import options. If your eBook is in PDF format, click the corresponding button. For this example, I will show how to import a Google Doc. Head over to your Google Doc, then navigate to the “Share” settings.
- Under “Share with Others,” change the access setting from "Restricted" to "Anyone with the link." This is necessary for Designer to access your content.
- Copy the link, go back to Designer, and paste the URL in the designated field, then click "Fetch."
Content Editing: Once imported, Designer pulls in your content into the audiobook editor. Here, you have various options including selecting the voice of the narrator. Options include:
- Voice Selection: Choose from different voice personas—Jenny, Guy, or Arya—to read your audiobook. You can mix and match voices if necessary.
- Tone and Pitch Adjustment: Adjust the tone (cheerful, empathetic, etc.), pitch, and speed of the voice to fit the narrative style you desire.
Preview and Publish: After customizing the voice and settings, you can preview the audio. Adjust the settings until you’re satisfied. When ready, scroll down and click on the “Publish” button. Designer will take care of generating your audiobook.
Credits System: Designer operates on a credit system. To utilize the audiobook feature, you need to be on a Premium plan, which comes with 100,000 credits. One credit equals approximately one word; thus, a 20,000-word audiobook would consume around 20,000 credits. Credits renew monthly.
Language Options: Additionally, when selecting the voice, you can choose the language for your audiobook. Designer provides various languages to accommodate different audiences.
Receive Your Audiobook: Once published, you will receive a notification via email informing you that your audiobook is ready for download.

Conclusion

In just a few simple steps, you can create an audiobook from your written content by leveraging the power of AI with Designer. This innovative tool not only simplifies the audiobook creation process but also enhances the quality of the narration.
