View quick summary
Elevenlabs has officially released their AI sound effects generator and I decided to give it a try. I used the free version, which gives you a 10,000 quota per month to use. Every generation takes up 200 of the provided quotas. Meanwhile, paid plans start at $5 per month. The generator works best with non-complex prompts and the free version does not provide the best quality either. I realized that the best way to put it to some good use is by generating sound effects separately and putting them together with audio editing.
