ElevenLabs alternative for singing: real songs in your own voice

For speech, ElevenLabs is the stronger tool, and Tera Studio doesn't try to compete. For singing, it depends on which song. ElevenLabs' music app, ElevenMusic, generates original songs, and since July 2026 its Vocals feature can sing those new songs in your own voice. If you want a song that already exists, one you love, sung back in your voice without performing it yourself, Tera Studio is built for exactly that: sing for about a minute (2 minutes sounds more like you), add the song, and hear it in your voice over the original music. Your first 2 songs are free to make and hear, with no card. Try it with your song.

What is an ElevenLabs alternative for singing?

Most people searching for an ElevenLabs alternative want text to speech. This page is for the other group: people who want their own voice on a song. Here is what each tool does:

Checked on October 20, 2026. ElevenLabs' pricing page listed Starter at $6 a month (commercial license, Instant Voice Cloning), Creator at $22 a month with the first month at $11 (Professional Voice Cloning) and Pro at $99. ElevenMusic Pro was $9.99 a month ($7.99 a month billed yearly) for 1,000 songs a month, unlimited downloads and 5 custom styles and vocals. US prices; they can change.

When ElevenLabs is the better choice: anything spoken (narration, audiobooks, voiceovers, ad reads, dubbing, voice agents); original songs from a prompt, with one voice, including yours, across all of them; turning a rough take of you singing into a finished arrangement with Voice to Song; releasing original songs to Spotify and Apple Music; or building on its API. When Tera Studio is the better choice: the song already exists, and you want that exact recording with only the voice changed to yours, without performing the song yourself.

Many creators use both: ElevenLabs for the spoken intro or voiceover, Tera Studio for the song. For a task-by-task breakdown, see Tera Studio and ElevenLabs.

How to hear an existing song sung in your own voice

1. Add the song. Choose an MP3, M4A or WAV with a clear lead singer (up to 20 minutes), or tap No song file? Use one of ours for a free starter song. Use the whole song, or tap Choose a part for up to 5 minutes of it.
2. Sing 1 to 2 minutes. Record right on the page, or upload a recording of up to 5 minutes. Sing anything you know, in any language. You don't have to sing the song you added.
3. Confirm and save. Tick This is my own voice, then tap Save my song. Saving is free, and you see the minutes needed before anything starts.
4. Listen. The first song takes about 20 minutes because your voice is learned first; later songs reuse it and are faster. We email you when it's ready, and it waits in My songs. If it doesn't sound like you, rate it Needs work and sing about 2 more minutes for a free remake.
5. Keep it (with a plan). Download the WAV, or a song card video with 15, 30 and 60 second vertical clips. Each song includes one guided correction.

A clean voice sample matters more for singing than for speech. In October 2026, of 22 rated songs whose voice was recorded over steady background noise (a fan, air conditioning or traffic), 21 were rated Needs work. Record somewhere quiet, with no music playing and the phone about a hand's width from your mouth, in your normal singing voice.

Features

• The song you chose, kept. The original singer supplies the notes, timing, breaths and runs; only the voice becomes yours.
• No prompts, credits or settings. Add a song, sing once, listen.
• Your voice, learned once. About a minute of singing; every later song reuses it.
• Private. Your voice is locked to your account; nobody else can choose, use or hear it.
• Any language. The words and pronunciation come from the song.
• Online, nothing to install. Works in the browser on iPhone, Android or a computer.
• With a plan: WAV and song card video downloads, vertical clips for Reels, Shorts and TikTok, and one guided correction per song.

For any purpose

• Gifts: a birthday song or an anniversary song in your voice.
• Your channel: covers and intros for YouTubers, or a TikTok cover in your own voice.
• Another language: your voice singing in another language.
• If you think you can't sing: hear yourself sing anyway.

Before you share

Use your own voice and a song you have permission to transform and publish. Voice conversion does not supply missing music rights. If you use a starter song, copy its artist, source and licence credit from your project and disclose the voice change. Follow the destination platform's rules, and keep a downloaded copy.
