Tips & Best Practices

1Use audio tags like [laughs], [whispers], [sighs] inline to direct the performance
2Lower stability (0.3-0.4) makes delivery more expressive; raise it for consistent narration
3Set language_code to match your text for correct pronunciation
4Use previous_text/next_text when splitting long scripts to keep prosody consistent
5For low-latency or high-volume use, consider Turbo v2.5 at half the price
