How to Get the Voice Effect on TikTok

Ever wondered how people on TikTok sound like chipmunks, robots, or even Siri? That’s all thanks to TikTok’s voice effects — a fun, creative tool that can totally transform the vibe of your video.

Whether you're making a comedy skit, narrating a story, or just adding a quirky twist to your content, voice effects can help your video stand out. In this guide, we’ll show you exactly how to find and use voice effects on TikTok — step by step.

🎙 What Are TikTok Voice Effects?

Voice effects are filters you can apply to your voice after recording a video. They change the sound of your voice in different ways — from high-pitched to deep, robotic, dramatic, or even echo-like effects.

Some popular voice effects include:

• Chipmunk

• Robot

• Echo

• Deep

• Megaphone

• Siri/AI voice

• Mic Drop

These effects are perfect for storytelling, lip-syncing, skits, or just adding a funny touch to your video.

🔧 How to Get the Voice Effect on TikTok

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Open TikTok and Start Recording

• Tap the plus (+) button to create a new video.

• Hold the record button to film your clip with your voice. (Important: You must record your own audio for voice effects to work.)

2. Tap the Checkmark

• Once you’re done recording, tap the checkmark in the bottom-right corner to move to the editing screen.

3. Tap “Voice Effects” on the Right-Side Menu

• You’ll see the “Voice Effects” icon (a face with soundwaves).

• Tap it, and a list of available voice filters will pop up.

4. Choose Your Voice Effect

• Browse through options and tap one to hear how your voice sounds with that effect.

• You can preview multiple effects until you find one that fits your vibe.

5. Post or Save

• Once you’re happy with the effect, continue editing (add captions, music, etc.), then tap “Next” to publish or save your video.

🧠 Pro Tips for Using Voice Effects

• 🎤 Record with clear audio: Voice effects work best when your voice is crisp and free of background noise.

• 🤖 Try storytelling or skits: Voice effects make simple videos more entertaining and engaging.

• 📲 Keep TikTok updated: If you can’t find voice effects, make sure your app is updated to the latest version.

• 🔁 Combine with other effects: Pair voice effects with visual filters or text-to-speech for creative results.

🎵 Bonus: What’s the Difference Between Voice Effects and Voiceovers?

• Voice Effects: Change your recorded voice using fun filters.

• Voiceover Tool: Lets you add a new voice track over your video (with no filter unless you add one after).

You can even combine both: do a voiceover, then apply a voice effect for extra flair.
