Why were the multi-language voices like "Valentino" removed from CapCut Text-to-Speech?
Hello CapCut team and community,
I’ve noticed that some of the most useful voices in the Text-to-Speech feature—like "Valentino", which worked beautifully in other languages besides English—have suddenly disappeared from the app. These voices were crucial for my content, especially when creating videos in multiple languages.
Could someone please clarify:
-
Why were these voices removed?
-
Will they be brought back in the future?
-
Is this a temporary issue or a permanent removal?
If these features are gone for good, I may have to cancel my Pro subscription and look for alternative apps that support multi-language AI voices.
This update has seriously affected my workflow, and I’m sure I’m not the only one. I hope CapCut considers restoring them or at least giving us a clear update.
Hi,
Why Did CapCut Remove Valentino?
While there’s no official word from CapCut, here are the probable reasons:
-
Voice licensing changes – CapCut may have lost rights or redesigned its voice library.
-
Feature reorganization or simplification – the app might consolidate voices or retire less-used ones.
-
Pro feature gating – though other voices turned Pro, Valentino seems to be fully gone, not behind a paywall.
While CapCut regularly updates its text-to-speech offerings, sometimes voices are added, removed, or changed. If you relied on the "Valentino" voice, you might need to explore other available voices within CapCut or consider using external text-to-speech generators like ElevenLabs and then importing the audio into CapCut.
Try this below temporary workaround for previously used voices:
- Go into the "recent" tab within CapCut
- Open old projects that used the voice
- Refresh the voice for new scripts
However, this may not work for everyone or be a permanent solution if the voice has been completely deprecated.
