Following is my translation from English to Spanish, are they correct?

increment voice = incremento voz
decrement voice = decremento voz
incrment speed = incremento velocidad


Thank you for help!

It depends on the context... It will be helpful to have full sentences.

Sabes que hace exactamente cada uno de esas opciones? Aumenta la voz o aumenta el volumen de la voz? No me queda claro

En todo caso yo creo que seria...

increment voice = incremente voz
decrement voice = reduzca voz
incrment speed = velocidad del incremento

Depende del contexo y de lo que haga el software tb puede ser de la siguiente manera:

increment voice = aumento de voz
decrement voice = reducción de voz
incrment speed = aumento de velocidad

increment voice = aumente la voz
decrement voice = reduzca la voz
incrment speed = aumente la velocidad

I have a friendly disagreement with the last one.

incrment speed = aumente la velocidad

The word increment in the English version is functioning as an adjective. So I don't think it can be translated as a verb.

In English dictionaries, the words increment and decrement are defined as nouns. But in this post, the two words act as verbs, I prefer increment and decrement as verbs here. And in some IT related articles, the 2 words are used as verbs too. Here are 2 examples:

InterlockedIncrement function (Windows)

InterlockedDecrement function (Windows)

I see your point. I suppose you could read it both ways.

You are reading it as in "Increment speed = speed up it now!"
I am reading it as in "Increment speed= pace at which the speed should be incremented" For example an increment speed of 5 would mean to me that every time it speeds up, the speed will increment by a factor of 5 (units)

Computer geeks are notorious for making up their own language without regard to dictionaries.
