Chatterbox: New Open-Source 10-Second Voice Cloning Tool ========================================================
Chatterbox: New Open-Source 10-Second Voice Cloning Tool ========================================================  ### Nav Toor
@heynavtoor
🚨Someone just open sourced a tool that clones any voice from a 10-second audio clip.
It's called Chatterbox. Give it a short recording of anyone's voice and it will generate new speech in that exact voice. Any words you want.
23 languages. One pip install. Free.
Here's what makes this one different:
→ 350M parameter model. Runs on a single GPU.
→ You can make the cloned voice laugh, cough, chuckle, and sigh
→ Works in English, Japanese, Chinese, Hindi, Arabic, French, and 17 more
→ Built-in watermarking so generated audio can be detected
→ Voice conversion mode turns YOUR voice into someone else's in real-time
Five lines of Python and it's talking:
pip install chatterbox-tts
from chatterbox.tts_turbo import ChatterboxTurboTTS
model = ChatterboxTurboTTS.from_pretrained(device="cuda")
wav = model.generate("Hello world", audio_prompt_path="any_voice.wav")
That's it. That voice now says whatever you type.
