+
+## Model Introduction
+
+Miso TTS 8B is a text-to-speech model based on the Sesame CSM architecture. It generates Mimi audio codes from text and optional audio context using a large Llama-style backbone and an autoregressive audio decoder.
+
+This BF16 release is intended for ComfyUI users who want reduced memory usage while maintaining output quality comparable to the original release.
+
+## Quickstart
+
+1. Install ComfyUI.
+2. Install the MisoTTS-ComfyUI custom node:
+   https://github.com/Saganaki22/MisoTTS-ComfyUI
+3. Place this BF16 checkpoint in your MisoTTS model directory.
+4. Load the model using the MisoTTS-ComfyUI loader node.
+5. Generate speech from text or reference-audio workflows.

+
+## Architecture
+
+Miso TTS 8B uses two transformer components:
+
+- A large backbone transformer that consumes text and audio-frame embeddings.
+- A smaller autoregressive decoder transformer that predicts higher-order audio codebooks.
+
+Codebook 0 is predicted directly from the backbone hidden state, while codebooks 1 through 31 are generated autoregressively by the decoder.
+
+This release preserves the original architecture and only changes weight precision.
+
+## BF16 Conversion Notes
+
+- Converted from the original Miso TTS weights.
+- No retraining performed.
+- No finetuning performed.
+- No quantization applied.
+- Intended for lower memory usage compared to FP32 checkpoints.
+- Output quality should remain effectively identical to the original model aside from minor numerical differences inherent to BF16 inference.
+
+## Intended Use
+
+This model is intended for:
+
+- Text-to-speech generation
+- Conversational speech synthesis
+- Voice continuation workflows
+- Reference-audio conditioned speech generation
+- ComfyUI audio generation pipelines
+
+## Limitations
+
+- Voice similarity from reference audio is not guaranteed.
+- Long generations may require workflow chunking.
+- Output quality remains dependent on prompting and generation settings.
+- BF16 support is recommended at the hardware level for optimal performance.
