ElevenLabs Models: The Essentials

Last updated: September 16, 2026

ElevenLabs builds most of Scenario's audio models: full songs, expressive speech, voice transformation, dubbing, and sound effects. This article covers all thirteen ElevenLabs models on the platform, with one example each: Music v2.5, Music Advanced v2.5, Music Extend v2.5, Music v2, Music Advanced v2, 3 (Alpha), Multilingual v2, Turbo 2.5, Voice Changer, Voice Isolator, Speech to Speech, Dubbing v2, Dubbing, and Sound Effects 2.


Music

Full tracks generated from text. Music v2.5 takes one prompt and writes a whole song. Music Advanced v2.5 builds a song section by section, with its own styles, lyrics, and duration per part. Both are the current recommended versions; Music v2 and Music Advanced v2 remain available but are superseded. For a full walkthrough of prompting either v2.5 model, see the dedicated "ElevenLabs Music v2.5: The Essentials" article.

ElevenLabs Music v2.5

One text prompt in, one complete track out: any genre, vocal or instrumental, 3 to 600 seconds.
