CSS voice-family

Also see the full, alphabetical list of CSS properties


The CSS voice-family property is used in aural media (audio) to specify the voice family of the speaking voice.

Also see pitch-range, pitch and richness.

Syntax: voice-family: <value>;
Possible Values:
  • <generic-voice> - male, female, child
  • <specific-voice> - for example, announcer, comedian etc
  • inherit
Initial Value: Depends on user agent
Applies to: All elements.
Inherited: Yes
Media: Aural
Example:
p { voice-family: announcer, male }
The user agent will attempt to use the first option. If it can't use the first option, it will try the subsequent options. Similar to the font family, it's a good idea to leave a generic voice family as the last option in case the user agent can't support any specific voices.
