WavTTS

This repository hosts the official WavTTS checkpoint for zero-shot text-to-speech generation at 16 kHz. Please refer to the GitHub repository and paper for more details.

Files

• model_1200000.pt: official WavTTS checkpoint.
• vocab.txt: matching vocabulary file for the released checkpoint.

Usage

Please use this checkpoint with the WavTTS codebase:

git clone https://github.com/cwx-worst-one/WavTTS
cd WavTTS
pip install -e .

Run inference with the default checkpoint:

wavtts_infer-cli \
  --model WavTTS \
  --ref_audio "path/to/reference.wav" \
  --ref_text "The transcription of the reference audio." \
  --gen_text "The text you want to synthesize."

The default WavTTS configuration downloads model_1200000.pt from this repository automatically. To use the files explicitly, set:

ckpt_file = "hf://worstchan/WavTTS/model_1200000.pt"
vocab_file = "infer/examples/vocab.txt"
