There's a number of ways to do it. Some of them will let you create a override table that uses the IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet).
In the past, when I used the local KokoroTTS model, I did something a bit more primitive for longer texts where it constantly mispronounced a word: a pre-TTS pass with regex to replace those words with a phonetic-sounding equivalent that worked more consistently (e.g. replacing “Danish” with “Day-nish.”)
- Bender 8mo agoI've been playing around with KokoroTTS. I like it a lot especially anything that functions locally. It takes a bit of CPU time but I could see letting that churn in the background on a VPS node for a while. Thankyou for that.
- vunderba 8mo agoGlad you're liking Kokoro! I have a similar setup - I let it spin in the background on some various RSS news feeds that I can listen to while I go walking. If you don't need voice cloning support it's one of the best locally hostable ones out there IMHO.
