🚀 SauerkrautTTS-Preview-0.1
SauerkrautTTS-Preview-0.1 is a fine - tuned Text - to - Speech (TTS) model. It's based on the powerful canopylabs/orpheus-3b-0.1-ft. This model offers four distinct German - speaking voices, enabling clear and natural speech outputs.
🚀 Quick Start
For seamless inference and practical examples, check out our detailed instructions and ready - to - use scripts available on:
This preview model introduces four distinct German - speaking voices: Lena, Anna, Max, and Tom.
These voices are crafted using original audio recordings captured with a Rhode Studio microphone and Mimic Studio, alongside carefully curated synthetic data.
The high - quality and well - curated dataset enables the model to produce clear and natural speech outputs, even in this initial release.
The synthetic audio data enriches the model, resulting in versatile and expressive voice capabilities.
Example Output and Comparison
💻 Usage Examples
Basic Usage
temperature = 0.5# Adjust lower for clearer output, higher for creativity
Advanced Usage
To achieve optimal results, we recommend using a lower temperature for clear and stable outputs. Higher temperatures will enhance dynamism and expressiveness but might introduce instability.
🔮 Future Plans
This model represents our first exploratory step into advanced German - language TTS. Expect significant improvements in upcoming versions, including:
Enhanced voice clarity
Expanded speaker diversity
Greater stability across temperature ranges
Stay tuned for future releases and updates!
