- recensorium 2mo agoThis is cool! What model are you using?
- login588 2mo agoThanks! Airy runs on a proprietary TTS model that we built in-house, rather than a third-party model.
- recensorium 2mo agoWow! Well done that's really impressive.
- saaaaaam 2mo agoWhy did you pick such creepy voices? They are very childlike and weird.
- panja 2mo agoThey just sound like anime voices
- saaaaaam 2mo agoRight, I’ve never seen an anime, probably for exactly this reason.
- satvikpendem 2mo agoThere are good ones without the stereotypical voices, I recommend Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood.
- vezycash 2mo agoI bet you're talking about like English dubs. The original japanese voices are diverse. Aizen from Bleach, Hakshaku (Millennium Earl) from D. Grayman, Marshal D. Teach from One-piece, and All Might from my hero academia have deep regal voices.
- wccrawford 2mo agoThey're definitely anime-style voices, though most of the female ones are very annoying. I couldn't stand to watch an anime with them.

- Kim_Bruning 2mo agoYou know, I never did find out why people dub anime with such unnatural voices.
- Figs 2mo agoThe voice actors usually try to match the timing of the mouth flaps in the animation. It's hard to do that while also conveying the meaning of what is said correctly (enough) -- and practically impossible to do that while sounding natural in English too.
- Kim_Bruning 2mo agoThat doesn't help for sure, but the intonation is ... odd.

- AnuragPathapall 2mo agoGreat, Working fast and cool. You can also try to adding some more voices from different parts of the world.
- jnwatson 2mo agoAll but one of the voices sounds tinny. The timing and cadence was good though. Is this intended for anime autodubbing? There's only one voice (Rowan) that is remotely traditional broadcaster-style.

- MissTake 2mo agoAs with seemingly all AI these days - it seems to fail with prosody and simply speaks the very next word with zero regard to the nuance or cadence that author intended, or an understanding of any the words being spoken. When AI achieves the ability to deliver some of Shakespeare’s greatest soliloquies or monologues, then I’ll pay attention.
- jonathaneunice 2mo agoProsody is hard. No AI voice I've heard really nails voice generation with fully smooth and human-like cadence and quality, but they're gradually getting better. Airy voices sound a bit tinny and childish, but even so, they're better than many I've heard, including for the elusive "humanness" quality.
- kunaaldhawan1 2mo agoCan you change the voice? Also, is it possible to vary the emotion in one audio?
- techyKerala 2mo agoThis is cool
