Speak Your Ideas: How Midjourney v7 Adds Voice Control

Midjourney is always getting better. Version 7 brings some exciting new options for creating images. One big change? You can now use your voice to make edits happen in real time. This feature is different and fast. It helps you see changes quickly as you talk.

Getting Started with Midjourney v7

Before you use the newest features, you need to turn on version 7 in your settings. When you switch to version 7, Midjourney will ask you to personalize your experience. This means looking at pairs of images and picking the one you like more.

• The personalization step helps Midjourney learn your style.

• You can skip images, but it's better to choose one you like a little more to help train the system.

• The choices you make create a global personalization setting.

• You can turn off personalization later if you want.

• Midjourney also lets you use mood boards you've created to influence your style.

Trying Out Draft Mode and Voice Commands

Version 7 has a new "draft mode." This mode gives you a fast, rough look at your image idea first. It's needed to use the voice edit feature. When draft mode is on, a microphone icon appears.

Click the microphone icon to start talking. Midjourney listens and makes changes to your picture based on what you say. You can watch a new image appear based on your prompts and voice edits. This is a quick way to try different ideas.

Here are some examples of using voice edits after creating an image:

• Start with a polar bear in a ski outfit at a ski resort.

• Click the microphone and say: "Now, add a seal next to the polar bear in line."

• Say: "Okay, make this more realistic."

• Try: "Show a group of seals watching a polar bear snowboarding."

• Or: "Now, make it polar bears sitting in a hot tub after skiing."

The voice feature understands natural language, so you don't have to be perfectly precise with your words.

Refining Your Images

Images made in draft mode with voice commands can look a little rough at first. Midjourney gives you ways to make them look much better:

• Find the image you like and click 'Enhance'. This improves the image quality and might adjust some details.

• You can also click on the image again after enhancing and choose 'Upscale Subtle'. This improves the quality of that specific draft image.

• Upscaling takes a little time but results in a clearer, sharper picture.

Experimenting with the enhance and upscale options helps you get the final look you want from your voice prompts. For users looking to streamline image generation and management, exploring tools like the Midjourney Automation Suite from TitanXT can help automate parts of this process.

Current Considerations with v7

Midjourney version 7 is still new and improving. Right now, it has some limits. For example, it doesn't work well with character or style references. This means creating a consistent character across several images might not be possible yet in version 7.

If you need strong character consistency for your projects, you might need to switch back to version 6.1 in your settings. Midjourney plans to keep updating version 7 to add more features and fix current limitations.

Managing many image creations can be time-consuming. Tools such as the Midjourney Automation Suite from TitanXT can assist by automating tasks and helping keep your projects organized.

Conclusion

Midjourney v7's voice control feature is a fun and fast way to create and edit images. While it has some early limits, being able to talk to Midjourney to see real-time changes is a neat addition. Personalization, draft mode, and voice commands open new ways to play with your ideas.

Keep experimenting with the different versions and features available. For those interested in taking their Midjourney work to the next level with efficiency, consider checking out the Midjourney Automation Suite from TitanXT to see how automation can help your creative process.
