# Voice-to-code with aider
Speak with GPT about your code! Request new features, test cases or bug fixes using your voice and let GPT do the work of editing the files in your local git repo. As with all of aider's capabilities, you can use voice-to-code with an existing repo or to start a new project.
Voice support fits quite naturally into aider's AI pair programming
chat interface. Now you can fluidly switch between voice and text chat
when you ask GPT to edit your code.
## How to use voice-to-code
Use the in-chat `/voice` command to start recording,
and press `ENTER` when you're done speaking.
Your voice coding instructions will be transcribed
and sent to GPT, as if you had typed them into
the aider chat session.
See the [installation instructions](https://aider.chat/docs/install.html#install-portaudio-optional) for
information on how to enable the `/voice` command.
Recording, press ENTER when done... 3.5sec
