A free Voicemod alternative
Voicemod is the best-known voice changer for Discord and games. VoiceChange does the same core job (AI voices and effects, live, through a virtual microphone) for free, with every voice included and a Linux version too.
We measured both apps with the same recordings. Here is how they compare, and when Voicemod is still the better pick.
How they compare
| VoiceChange | Voicemod | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Free, every voice included | Free tier with a limited, rotating set of voices; paid Pro unlocks the rest |
| Platforms | Windows, macOS (Apple Silicon), Linux | Windows and macOS |
| Delay the AI voice adds (our test) | 35 ms | 45 ms |
| Words misheard (our test) | 0.7% | 4.9% |
| Voice runs on | Your computer, nothing uploaded | Your computer |
| Soundboard | No | Yes |

Our measurements
We played the same four sentences through both apps on a Mac, each set to a female AI voice, and recorded their virtual microphones. VoiceChange's Garnet added 35 ms of delay and Whisper misheard 0.7% of words; Voicemod's Mei added 45 ms with 4.9% misheard. Voicemod used less CPU (31% of a core vs 40%). The full benchmark has every clip so you can listen yourself.
When Voicemod is the better choice
- You want a big soundboard and meme sounds alongside voices.
- You want a very large catalog of voices and are happy to pay for Pro.
- You rely on Voicemod integrations with specific streaming tools.
Switching takes two minutes
Install VoiceChange, click Set up virtual mic, and in Discord or your game swap the input from the Voicemod virtual microphone to CABLE Output (Windows) or BlackHole 2ch (Mac). You can keep both installed.
