Chatterbox TTS

Made with ❤️ by

resemble-logo-horizontal

We're excited to introduce Chatterbox, Resemble AI's first production-grade open source TTS model. Licensed under MIT, Chatterbox has been benchmarked against leading closed-source systems like ElevenLabs, and is consistently preferred in side-by-side evaluations.

Whether you're working on memes, videos, games, or AI agents, Chatterbox brings your content to life. It's also the first open source TTS model to support emotion exaggeration control, a powerful feature that makes your voices stand out. Try it now on our Hugging Face Gradio app.

If you like the model but need to scale or tune it for higher accuracy, check out our competitively priced TTS service (link). It delivers reliable performance with ultra-low latency of sub 200ms—ideal for production use in agents, applications, or interactive media.

Key Details

SoTA zeroshot TTS
0.5B Llama backbone
Unique exaggeration/intensity control
Ultra-stable with alignment-informed inference
Trained on 0.5M hours of cleaned data
Watermarked outputs
Easy voice conversion script
Outperforms ElevenLabs

Tips

General Use (TTS and Voice Agents):
- The default settings (exaggeration=0.5, cfg=0.5) work well for most prompts.
- If the reference speaker has a fast speaking style, lowering cfg to around 0.3 can improve pacing.
Expressive or Dramatic Speech:
- Try lower cfg values (e.g. ~0.3) and increase exaggeration to around 0.7 or higher.
- Higher exaggeration tends to speed up speech; reducing cfg helps compensate with slower, more deliberate pacing.

Installation

pip install chatterbox-tts

Usage

python

import torchaudio as ta
from chatterbox.tts import ChatterboxTTS

model = ChatterboxTTS.from_pretrained(device="cuda")

text = "Ezreal and Jinx teamed up with Ahri, Yasuo, and Teemo to take down the enemy's Nexus in an epic late-game pentakill."
wav = model.generate(text)
ta.save("test-1.wav", wav, model.sr)

# If you want to synthesize with a different voice, specify the audio prompt
AUDIO_PROMPT_PATH="YOUR_FILE.wav"
wav = model.generate(text, audio_prompt_path=AUDIO_PROMPT_PATH)
ta.save("test-2.wav", wav, model.sr)

See example_tts.py for more examples.

Built-in PerTh Watermarking for Responsible AI

Every audio file generated by Chatterbox includes Resemble AI's Perth (Perceptual Threshold) Watermarker - imperceptible neural watermarks that survive MP3 compression, audio editing, and common manipulations while maintaining nearly 100% detection accuracy.
