Rivya Audio Studio Guide
Use Rivya Audio Studio for voice, narration, dubbing, sound effects, cleanup, uploads, localization, video voice-over, and output review.
Use this guide when the Rivya output needs to be heard, cleaned, localized, downloaded, reviewed, or paired with a video asset.
Audio Studio is the signed-in workspace for AI voice, narration, dubbing, sound effects, cleanup, uploads, and audio outputs that may connect back to video or localization workflows.
What Audio Studio Is For
Audio Studio supports tasks such as:
- text-to-speech
- narration
- video voice-over
- dubbing and localization
- dialogue-style speech
- sound effects
- audio cleanup and isolation
- music-related workflows where available
These tasks share an audio surface, but they do not share the same input or review standard.
Choose The Audio Job First
Before choosing a model, decide the audio job.
Ask:
- Am I creating new speech?
- Am I localizing or replacing existing speech?
- Am I cleaning an existing recording?
- Am I generating a sound cue?
- Is this audio attached to a video?
- Does the output need to be downloaded, reused, or reviewed with a client?
The correct workflow depends on this answer.
Creating Speech From Text
Use speech generation when you have a script or message that needs to be heard.
A useful speech brief includes:
- language
- speaker style
- tone
- pace
- target listener
- approximate length
- where the audio will be used
Example:
Create a calm 20-second voice-over for a product launch teaser. The audience is ecommerce founders. Keep the tone clear, confident, and not overly dramatic.
Narration, Voice-Over, And Dubbing
Use narration when one voice carries a video, tutorial, product explanation, or story.
Use voice-over when audio is supporting a specific video or campaign asset.
Use dubbing when the task is replacing or localizing spoken content while preserving the meaning of an existing scene.
For video-related work, review the visual pacing before finalizing audio.
Cleanup And Sound Effects
Cleanup improves an existing recording.
Sound effects create new audio cues.
Do not confuse the two. If the issue is noise, isolation, or clarity, use cleanup. If the issue is missing impact, ambience, or a specific sound moment, use a sound-effect workflow.
If a source recording matters, read Audio Uploads in Rivya before uploading.
Reviewing Audio Outputs
Review audio by listening through the actual use case.
Check:
- pronunciation
- pacing
- emotional fit
- clarity
- noise or cleanup artifacts
- language naturalness
- timing against video when relevant
- whether the output is reusable
For commercial use, listen to the full output instead of checking only the opening seconds.
When Not To Use Audio Studio First
Do not start in Audio Studio when:
- the script is still unclear and needs chat planning
- the video direction is not settled
- the real task is visual, not audio
- the source file includes sensitive material you should not upload
- the output needs legal, medical, or client approval before use
Use Chat Studio in Rivya for planning and Safe Upload Guidelines before sending sensitive files.
Common Audio Studio Mistakes
Avoid these patterns:
- choosing a voice before the script is readable aloud
- using cleanup when the real task is new narration
- using sound effects to fix an unclear video concept
- approving a short sample without listening through the real use case
Audio quality is not only about sound. It also depends on script, timing, language, and whether the asset belongs in the larger project.
