ElevenLabs SFX Generator

Introduction

This script allows you to generate sounds via Eleven Labs directly from Reaper. Simply enter a prompt describing the sound you want to create - whether it’s the crackle of fire or an alarm signal on an orbital station. The script will generate the sound and insert it directly onto the timeline.

Settings

In the form, you can specify:

• Amount of variations - how many files to generate
• Prompt influence - how strictly the script should follow the prompt (the higher the value, the less creative freedom and the more literal the result),
• Duration - control the desired duration of the generated asset.
• The query field also stores a history of previous queries. You can click the button on the right or use the up/down arrow keys to navigate through the history.

The request limits and pricing for using the API are managed on the Eleven Labs side. This script simply uses the Eleven Labs API.
