# Coqui TTS - Maxine (Luxembourgish Female Voice)
|
| 16 |
+
|
| 17 |
+
A VITS-based text-to-speech model for Luxembourgish, featuring a synthetic female voice.
|
| 18 |
+
|
| 19 |
+
## Model Description
|
| 20 |
+
|
| 21 |
+
This model was trained using the [Coqui TTS](https://github.com/coqui-ai/TTS) framework on Luxembourgish speech data from the [Lëtzebuerger Online Dictionnaire (LOD)](https://lod.lu) example sentences.
|
| 22 |
+
|
| 23 |
+
"Maxine" is a synthetic female Luxembourgish voice created by modulating the original LOD recordings to produce a distinct female voice character.
|
| 24 |
+
|
| 25 |
+
