Margaret, two British voices blended for documentary scripts and chapter introductions
Margaret is a house recipe fixed as one voice: two parts Imogen, our British female voice with a steady pace, to one part Edmund, the low British male of our notes. Our note gives her documentary scripts and chapter introductions. She comes ready to use, and her ingredients are there when you want your own balance.

About this voice
How Margaret is put together
Imogen supplies two thirds and the pronunciation, with a note that says British female, steady pace for courseware. Edmund supplies one third, with a note that says low British male, works for documentary voiceover. The result is a British read that moves at an even pace with a low floor under it.
We kept the recipe because we wanted a British documentary read with more floor than Imogen alone. Both ingredients are British English voices. The accent stays consistent from the first line to the last, and long scripts come back as one continuous file.
Length the engine likes. The published guidance puts the sweet spot at roughly 100 to 200 tokens, a few sentences per line.

ImogenEnglish (UK)
Two parts Imogen
The larger share sets the British pronunciation and pace. Our note says steady pace for courseware, which keeps a long documentary script moving at an even speed.
2 parts
EdmundEnglish (UK)
One part Edmund
The smaller share lends the low timbre. Our note calls Edmund a low British male that works for documentary voiceover.
