This model delivers what may be the most impressive local voice cloning quality we've seen from any open-source TTS model to date. We begin with a quick overview of the model and its capabilities, then walk through the local install process, which runs comfortably on an 8GB VRAM GPU. After setup, we run a wide range of tests—from general speech synthesis to laughter, accents, emotion, and cloning. The results are striking, and the voice cloning accuracy is especially strong, with expressive outputs that are difficult to distinguish from the original speaker.
