I just found this.
This is huge!
As a german, I use thorsten medium as he simply made the best dataset.
Mixing english with german, speaking numbers, single letters, pausing without a “.” but just a linebreak, all those can be essential.
And… it is nearly perfect! And all local!
This is crazy!
eSpeak can finally go to rest!
For context really, because figuring out the android install there ain’t a straight thing.
I’ve been using these TTS for a few months now, and I’m seriously impressed with its quality. I always find funny when it tells me to TURN LAFT ON THE NEXT ROUND… ABOUT, but that’s a really minor nit picking, overall audio quality is amazing.
Just to clarify, this is standalone and doesn’t need a local LLM or anything yeah? Also, any tips on tutorials for the install process?
Edit: Nevermind, I realize it’s install and use
Yup, standalone and doesn’t require anything else, no connectivity whatsoever. It runs local.
