Model Card for VoXtream2

VoXtream2 is a zero-shot full-stream TTS model with dynamic speaking-rate control that can be updated mid-utterance on the fly. It was introduced in the paper VoXtream2: Full-stream TTS with dynamic speaking rate control.

Developed by: Nikita Torgashov, Gustav Eje Henter, Gabriel Skantze

Key features

Dynamic speed control: Distribution matching and Classifier-free guidance allow for a fine-grained speaking rate control, which can be adjusted as the model generates speech.
Streaming performance: Works 4x times faster than real-time and achieves 74 ms first packet latency in a full-stream on a consumer GPU.
Translingual capability: Prompt text masking enables support of acoustic prompts in any language.

Get started

Installation

eSpeak NG phonemizer

bash

# For Debian-like distribution (e.g. Ubuntu, Mint, etc.)
apt-get install espeak-ng
# For RedHat-like distribution (e.g. CentOS, Fedora, etc.) 
yum install espeak-ng
# For MacOS
brew install espeak-ng

Pip package

pip install "voxtream>=0.2"

Usage

Prompt audio: a file containing 3-10 seconds of the target voice. The maximum supported length is 20 seconds (longer audio will be trimmed).
Text: What you want the model to say. The maximum supported length is 1000 characters (longer text will be trimmed).
Speaking rate (optional): target speaking rate in syllables per second.

Output streaming

bash

voxtream \
    --prompt-audio assets/audio/english_male.wav \
    --text "In general, however, some method is then needed to evaluate each approximation." \
    --output "output_stream.wav"

Full streaming (slow speech, 2 syllables per second)

bash

voxtream \
    --prompt-audio assets/audio/english_female.wav \
    --text "Staff do not always do enough to prevent violence." \
    --output "full_stream_2sps.wav" \
    --full-stream \
    --spk-rate 2.0

Note: Initial run may take some time to download model weights and warmup model graph.
