I'm working on a voice cloning version of my TTS model, a highly upgraded VITS:

Right now, I only have single speaker checkpoints (as per the old video). That will change soon.

VITS is such a cool model (and paper), fast, minimal, trainable. Meta took it to extreme for about 1000 languges.

It seems like you have been working on this application for sometime, i will go through your code , but could you provide some context about upgradations/changes you have made, or some post describing your efforts.

Cool nonetheless!

I'll explain in detail once I've got the big release, but everything's been thoroughly modernized. Transformer, HiFi-GAN (now iSTFTNet w/Snake) vocoder, et al, plus a few additions.

Recommendations for local text-to-speech synth? Last year, played with Piper-TTS, Chatterbox, and some others. Ideally supporting English, Spanish, Chinese.

Multilingual and local? Try out Supertonic 2.
