Parler-TTS: Natural language guidance of high-fidelity TTS
- column 2y agoI've tried it on my laptop and it is about as slow/fast as xtts. But as far as I can there's no way of keeping a consistent voice from generation to generation. If so, I don't really get the appeal. If there was a way to get consistent, then that's great for NPCs.

- josephh 2y agoDoes anyone know of a good text normalization (?) library that converts symbols and initialisms into plain English before feeding them into a TTS model? All the models that I've used so far do a horrible job at synthesizing speech for them and I'm wondering whether this is the missing piece in the pipeline.
