# Change pitch (negative = lower, positive = higher) # Lower pitch simulates male voice new_sample_rate = int(audio.frame_rate * (2.0 ** (pitch_semi / 12.0))) male_audio = audio._spawn(audio.raw_data, overrides='frame_rate': new_sample_rate) male_audio = male_audio.set_frame_rate(audio.frame_rate)

for v in voices: print(v.id, v.name, v.gender) # Some show gender If you need without cloud dependency, use pyttsx3
