Sheikh Muhammad Refaat (RVC v2) - 250 Epochs

This is a high-quality RVC v2 model of Sheikh Muhammad Refaat, trained on 30 minutes of restored vintage audio.

Usage Recommendations

To get the authentic "Vintage Radio" sound, use these settings in RVC/Applio:

  • Pitch (Transpose):
    • -2 or -3 (If your voice is higher/younger).
    • 0 (If using a professional imitator as input).
  • Index Rate: 0.75 (Critical for the grainy texture).
  • Resample: 0 (Do not change).
  • Protect Voiceless Consonants: 0.33 (Keeps breathing natural).
  • Hop Length: 128 (Better for slow recitation).

Pipeline for Best Results

Since Sheikh Refaat has a unique Maqam style, do not use your own voice directly.

  1. Find a recording of Sheikh Muhammad Omran (imitating Refaat).
  2. Remove reverb using UVR5.
  3. Use that clean audio as the input for this model.

Files Included

  • .pth: The model weights (250 Epochs).
  • .index: The feature index (Essential for texture).
