About Lip Sync
Lip Sync is a Blender add‑on from Charley3D that generates mouth animation directly from a voice recording. Load an audio clip, run the analysis, and the add‑on extracts phonemes and writes keyframes for your character’s mouth, eliminating manual keyframing. It supports 3D shape‑key animation, 2D spritesheet mouth shapes, and integrates with Blender’s Video Sequencer. More than 25 languages are available, including English, French, Spanish, German, Russian, Hindi and Mandarin. On first use it downloads the appropriate Vosk model, caches it locally, and thereafter operates fully offline. The add‑on runs on Windows, macOS (Intel and Apple Silicon), and Linux, and requires Blender 4.4 or newer. It is released under the GNU GPL v3.0 or later.
