<@1145576664366055464> does retell now supports Sonic v3 model in cartesia? if yes how to select that specific model

Thanks for tagging me <@1346827847532150885>. I'll look through relevant sources and get back to you shortly.

### Answer
 

Yes, Retell supports Cartesia Sonic 3. You can select it using the `voice_model` parameter when creating or updating a voice agent. [(1) ](<https://docs.retellai.com/api-references/update-agent>) [(2) ](<https://docs.retellai.com/api-references/create-agent>)

The available Cartesia voice models include:
- `sonic-2`
- `sonic-3`
- `sonic-turbo`



**To select Sonic 3:**

Set `voice_model` to `"sonic-3"` in your API request when creating or updating an agent. 

You can also select this in the Dashboard under the voice model settings. [(2) ](<https://docs.retellai.com/api-references/create-agent>)

**Note:** If you experience temporary outages with Cartesia, you can configure `fallback_voice_ids` from a different TTS provider to ensure continuity. [(1) ](<https://docs.retellai.com/api-references/update-agent>) [(2) ](<https://docs.retellai.com/api-references/create-agent>)
