# VoiceSpec

Defines a voice specification structure.

## Declaration

```swift
struct VoiceSpec
```

## Overview

Overview A voice specification structure provides a unique specification that you must use to obtain information about a voice. You also must use a voice specification structure if you wish to create a speech channel that generates speech in a voice other than the current system default voice. To ensure compatibility with future versions of the Speech Synthesis Manager, you should never fill in the fields of a voice specification structure yourself. Instead, you should create a voice specification structure by using the MakeVoiceSpec(_:_:_:) function.
