AI lyric sync

Start with the right lyric sync. Spend less time fixing every word.

Choose the model that fits the recording. If a first pass needs too much cleanup, try ElevenLabs Scribe—its multilingual transcription can produce a better result on some songs.

Every recording is different. Scribe can reduce cleanup on songs where it fits well; results are not guaranteed.

Three ways to start

Match the model to the recording

There is no single best model for every voice, mix, and language. Start with the tradeoff that matters most for this song.

AudioShake

A different transcription approach

A medium-cost option that can work well across many recordings. Results vary by voice, mix, language, and song.

Medium cost

02

ElevenLabs Scribe

Lower-cost multilingual option

Word-timed transcription with Auto-detect and broad language support. Supplied lyrics can help it recognize uncommon words.

MusicAI

Alternative for clear vocals

Another option for recordings with clear, isolated vocals when you want to compare the first pass.

High cost

New: ElevenLabs Scribe

A useful first pass without paying the highest model cost

Scribe gives creators another way to begin. On the right song, its word timing and language coverage can mean less repetitive adjustment before styling and export.

01

Start in more languages

Use Auto-detect or choose the song language when you know it.

02

Get word-level timing

Receive a timed transcript that is ready to review in Youka's lyric editor.

03

Help with uncommon words

Paste existing lyrics as vocabulary hints for names, phrases, and spellings the model may not expect.

Your song, your choice

Try a first pass that fits the job

Choose the model that fits this recording and your budget, then review the result in the editor before export.

Scribe returns its own transcript. Supplied lyrics are vocabulary hints, not forced exact text.
