If AI will render some jobs obsolete, I suppose the first one will be audio book narrators and voice actors.
I can see a future where the label "100% narrated by a human" (and similar in other industries) will be a thing

#142Though would def like to clone a pleasant voice on it before using. Those sound good but not my cup of tea

#143I really want to try this but making the venv to install all the torch dependencies is starting to get old lol. How are other people dealing with this? Is there an easy way to get multiple venvs to share like a common torch venv? I can do this manually but I'm wondering if there's a tool out there that does this.
If it's starting to get old, then this means that an LLM like Copilot should be able to do it for you, no?

#145Was somewhat annoying to get everything to work as the documentation is a bit spotty, but after ~20 minutes it's all working well for me on WSL Ubuntu 22.04. Sound quality is very good, much better than other open source TTS projects I've seen. It's also SUPER fast (at least using a 4090 GPU). Not sure it's quite up to Eleven Labs quality. But to me, what makes Eleven so cool is that they have a large library of high…
To save people some time, this is tested on Ubuntu 22.04 (google is being annoying about the download link, saying too many people have downloaded it in the past 24 hours, but if you wait a bit it should work again): git clone https://github.com/yl4579/StyleTTS2.git cd StyleTTS2 python3 -m venv venv source venv/bin/activate python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip python3 -m pip install wheel pip install -r requirements.…

#147I made a 100% local voice chatbot using StyleTTS2 and other open source pieces (Whisper and OpenHermes2-Mistral-7B). It responds so much faster than ChatGPT. You can have a real conversation with it instead of the stilted Siri-style interaction you have with other voice assistants. Fun to play with! Anyone who has a Windows gaming PC with a 12 GB Nvidia GPU (tested on 3060 12GB) can install and converse with StyleTTS…

#148This voice cloning is... nothing like XTTSv2, let alone ElevenLabs.
It doesn't seem to care about accents at all. It does pretty well with pitch and cadence, and that's about it.
I've tried all kinds of different values for alpha, beta, embedding scale, diffusion steps.
Anyone else have better luck?
Sure it's fast and the sound quality is pretty good, but I can't get the voice cloning to work at all.

Tried it but it seems it only works with Cuda 11 and I have 12 installed. Not really willing to potentially screw up my Cuda environment to try it.

It threw a python exception for me and didn't generate speech
