Once you've configured your <u>**[Character's Appearance](docId\:ixLl_IXbcoEt8cgaFrsbg)**</u>, the next step is to choose how they sound. A clear **voice&#x20;**&#x61;nd the right **ambience&#x20;**&#x62;ring your character to life, helping learners feel like they're speaking with a real person rather than reading a script.

You can also add optional background sounds to match the simulation setting.

- Choose from **over 14,000 voices** to find one that suits your character.
- Use **language, accent, gender, age, and voice style** to find the right voice.
- **Preview** voices before selecting the one you want to use.
- Add **Ambient Background Noise** when relevant to make the simulation setting feel more realistic.

**Info:&#x20;**&#x53;imFlow currently gives you access to over 14,000 voices, with new voices added regularly, so the exact number may grow beyond what's shown here.

### Next Steps

Once you’ve added the voice and ambient background noise for your character, continue to <u>**[Configure Simulation Settings](docId\:ces120LbU8LkkWe61M12-)**</u> to control how the simulation behaves and responds.&#x20;
