FIXED: Has anyone got the Voice Server working on the free ElevenLabs Plan?

[smolcompute]

What is a voice ID that works on the free plan ?

I'm always getting one of 2 errors:

error: ElevenLabs API error: 400 - {"detail":{"status":"free_users_not_allowed","message":"This voice is not available for free users."}}

or

error: ElevenLabs API error: 401 - {"detail":{"status":"model_deprecated_free_tier","message":"Model is not available on the free tier. The eleven_monolingual_v1 and eleven_multilingual_v1 models are removed from free tier. Please migrate to newer models for continued service."}}

@smolcompute - had similar issue here - I had claudecode fix this for me -

The server is using eleven_monolingual_v1 which is deprecated. I need to update it to use eleven_turbo_v2_5 which is available
on the free tier. Let me fix this

Nice thanks, it's working now.

Sweet, I need to check and see if I need to upgrade this on my side as well. And for the PAI install.

To use the free tier, you also have to specify the model because only the "cheap" models work on the free plan. Eleven_monolingual_v1 is not accepted.

I added an env var : ELEVEN_MODEL_ID=eleven_flash_v2_5
and modified server.ts to use it. See PR.
