I have several tapes (yes actual cassette tapes) of my grandfather reading a novel.

Unfortunately a few of the tapes have degraded to the point that I cannot play them back.

I would love to recreate his voice, to “rerecord” the missing bits.

The recordings are in Danish.

Is this possible?

If it is, how can I go about it?

    If you have the equipment (mainly an Nvidia GPU that has the ability) doing voice cloning locally is the way to go if you keep running into legal issues. Plus being on your computer you may be able to tweak and try different methods to get the best results for your needs. A year ago this would have been a maybe, but there’s a lot out there to look at and try. See what others have done first in videos and such and follow their lead.
